Please clarify exactly what you mean. Are you currently already in a restore situation, where something is broken enough so that you want to restore from backup? What's broken? Are you preparing/exercising for a future restore event? What use-cases do you want to prepare/test for? E.g. it's very different to prepare to a case where a trivial corruption/user-error/bug/whatever "just" removed some critical files on your engine VM, and to prepare to a case where the complete site/hardware went through a natural disaster and you buy new hardware/storage/etc. and want to restore on them. And obviously there are many other cases in-between/around these. > My environments were build using ansible with a hostedengine .json answer > file. Meaning, running the hosted_engine_setup role directly? Without 'hosted-engine --deploy'? Nice to know about that - it's quite rare. > From what I've read so far it appears that a new HE VM needs to be built with > new engine storage etc Correct, in most cases. We do have a section about restoring a backup inside the engine VM, assuming that it's still ok - search for "Overwriting a Self-Hosted Engine from an Existing Backup".

Not sure about HCI/gluster - adding Ritesh.
