Hyper-V backup plugin

Hi,
I'm trial testing your Hyper-V backup plugin. Is it possible to restore Hyper-V VM to another host, that is not the host VM was originally running on?
What happens if Hyper-V host that had VM's backed up fails? How can one restore those VM's to another host?

Regards,
Drazen

Here is the trick and hint that results from one big "plus" of our solution: we are backing up in native format for Windows - VHD, so if you will have need to restore, technically speaking, you don't even need our software - you can jst mount the backup VHD wherever you want/need.

Yes thanks Anatoly.
However, how to apply increments manually?

Actually I have already described the way - just mount it. Every increment is just a child snapshot in VHD format, so you can simply mount this virtual hard drive.
