I am not sure I understood your question correctly. You are trying to restore 
to a separate CloudStack environment, which is not supported now.

This feature can be used within a single CloudStack environment.

Subject: Re: Questions regarding Backup and Recovery

Thank you.  I’m looking at what it takes to configure or add the existing 
remote zone.

What if the cluster’s pre-existing but were never linked?  I see in the docs it 
mentions designating a zone id during db creation. I did not do this.  Can this 
be done on the remote cluster retroactively?

At this point, I basically have two completely individual clusters.

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes you can create an instance from the backup in the same zone or another zone:

Subject: Questions regarding Backup and Recovery

I’m experimenting with NAS based backup and recovery using the features present 
in 4.22. These are KVM based instances.

I was able to go through the configuration and execute a backup on an instance.

My question is, can this backup be used to restore the instance in a total 
unrelated cluster?

I’m trying to backup instances with the understanding that I may need to 
restore these instances somewhere else.

Thank you
