Before you restore the VM on Proxmox, you need to have a Hyper-V VM backup.
Let's open a browser and log in Vinchin Backup server web console. Go to VM Backup > Restore page.
Step 1. Select Restore Point
In the list, you can see all the available restore points. Just select the Hyper-V restore point you want to restore, and click Next.
Step 2. Select Restore Destination
Select a target Proxmox host where to run the restored VM. Here, you can simply configure the restored VM, such as VM name, CPU, Memory, Virtual disk and Virtual Network. After configuration, click Next.
Step 3. Select Restore Strategies
In Schedule, you can choose Restore as Scheduled or Once-off Restore. Restore as scheduled will automatically restore the VMs at a specific time, and Once-off Restore will restore the VMs only once.
After configuring all recovery policies, click Next.
Step 4. Review and submit the job
Once the job is created, you'll be redirected to the job list page and the restore job will run now.
Click the job name to check the job progress. And the flow chart shows the real-time transmission speed and the bar under it is the job progress.
Here, you can see the VM has been successfully restored.
To make sure that everything went well, we are advised to check the new virtual machine in Proxmox VE again. Here you can confirm that the migration from Hyper-V to Proxmox has been successfully completed.
