# kubevirt-velero-plugin - selective PV and VS restore testing

Manual Testing:

OpenShift with KubeVirt and 4 VMs:

# Two VMs in mpryc-vm NS:

3. Create 3 namespaces to test restore operation:

$ oc create ns mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v1
namespace/mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v1 created
$ oc create ns mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v2
namespace/mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v2 created
$ oc create ns mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v3
namespace/mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v3 created

4. Test restore operation:

4a. Restore one PVC from non shared PV only to a v1 ns

$ velero restore create   \
    --from-backup mpryc-vm-backup-modified-kubevirt-plugin \
    --include-resources persistentvolumeclaims,volumesnapshots  \
    --namespace-mappings mpryc-vm:mpryc-vm-restore-modified-kubevirt-plugin-data-v1 \
    --selector velero.kubevirt.io/pvc-uid=c7514c0f-86a3-49d8-a8f8-18babd9c80f5
Restore request "mpryc-vm-backup-modified-kubevirt-plugin-20250924151420" submitted successfully.
Run `velero restore describe mpryc-vm-backup-modified-kubevirt-plugin-20250924151420` or `velero restore logs mpryc-vm-backup-modified-kubevirt-plugin-20250924151420` for more details.
