  4. (Optional) Deselect Start the desktop immediately after restoration.

    If you do so, manually start the desktop after the restoration is complete.

    Desktops will be shut down during restoration, so you are advised to perform a restoration during off-peak hours.

    When the status of the desktop changes to Available, the restoration is successful.
