Restore to AWS UTM seems to lock it up

thumphr
I built an hourly AWS UTM instance, walked thru all of the initial config stuff, updated it to 9.305-4. And everyrhing was working. I restored a backup from my UTM220, with host info removed, and how the AWS instance isn't coming backup after it rebooted.
Has anyone else tried/gad issues with this?

    It's not worth trying to fix it, thumphr.  Your 220 has eight NICs, and the AWS instance only one.  Did the right NIC get the interface you wanted in the restore - who knows?  You can delete that instance.

    If you don't have a spare 220, I think your best bet is to fire up a VM with 8 NICs, restore to that and configure it so that you can delete the other 7 NICs.  Then do an info-removed backup from it and restore to a new instance in AWS.  If that's also a broken restore, at least you can go back to your VM and try again.

    By the way, what is the purpose of a UTM instance in the cloud - is it part of a disaster recovery plan?

    Cheers - Bob

    Yes for DR, We make heavy use of the Web Application Firewall routing and the goal would be to be able to restore a backup from the physical UTM to the AWS UTM make a few ip changes, bring up the replica VMs and Bob's your Uncle everything is back online while we deal with the issue at the physical data center.
