 Restore to Alternate Location
-  * When performing a Run Direct restore to Alternate Location, only one VM can be selected per restore session. \\ {{public:ahsay_wiki_module_vmware_requirement_03.png?200}} \\ {{public:ahsay_wiki_module_vmware_requirement_04.png?640}}

+  * Consider to create separate VMware VM backup set for each VM that you intend to perform Run Direct restore (e.g. VMs that you may restore to alternate location).
+Dedicated NFS Service - A dedicated AhsayOBM NFS Windows service is introduced to allow Run Direct session to continue even if the AhsayOBM user interface is closed.
+By default, the AhsayOBM NFS service is started as Local System, which does not have sufficient permission to access any network resources (e.g. the AhsayOBM NFS service does not have sufficient permission to access the VM backup files on network drive).
+Make sure that the Log on setting of the Ahsay Online Backup Manager NFS Service is configured with an account with sufficient permission to access the network backup destination where the backed up VM data are stored.
+  - Under Control Panel, open Administrative Tools then Services.
+  - Right click on Ahsay Online Backup Manager NFS Service, select the Log on tab.
+  - Select the This Account option.
+  - Enter the login credentials of an account with sufficient permission.
+  - Restart the service afterward.
+==== Non-VDDK Backup Mode Requirements ====
+For VM that cannot be backed up in VDDK mode, non-VDDK backup mode will be used instead.
+  * Independent Disk (Persistent or Non-persistent)
+  * Independent disk can only be backed up if the VM is shutdown during a backup.  If the VM is started up during the backup, all independent disks selected for backup cannot be backed up.
