Tenant Restores#

Individual tenant restores can be obtained from cloud snapshots. Each tenant can also schedule/perform cloud snapshots of their own individual environment and restore directly from those snapshots with no intervention necessary from their VergeOS provider (parent).

A provider can restore a tenant from cloud snapshot -OR- can expose a cloud snapshot listing to a tenant allowing the tenant to perform a restore of their system from their own UI. (Enable Expose Cloud Snapshots to allow a tenant to view/access to snapshots.)
