Virtual Machine Data Recovery Experts

Data loss from servers, hypervisors, and virtual machines can be daunting. With 35+ years of data recovery experience and 15 years of virtual machine data recovery experience, Ontrack has recovered data from virtualised systems for thousands of enterprise customers worldwide. Virtualisation adds complexity to the data recovery process and when you need data recovered from virtualised environments, Ontrack is here to help.

Common causes of data loss on virtual storage devices

Common causes of data loss on virtual machines

There are many causes of data loss. Fortunately, Ontrack has expertise to recover data from the following situations and more.

  • Failed disks or damaged RAIDs
  • Deleted LUNs/Volumes
  • Formatted or overwritten hosts, datastores, volumes and VMs
  • Corrupt Datastores or host volumes (VMFS, NTFS, ReFS, EXT, XFS, etc)
  • Corrupted virtual disk files (VMDK, VHD, VHDX, etc)
  • Corrupted guest file systems
  • Deleted VMs or snapshots
  • Deleted files from within a VM

VM System Data Recovery Recommendations

For best results, Ontrack recommends you follow these guidelines to protect you from further data loss. These recommendations can help preserve your chances for successful data recovery with Ontrack.

  • Stop using the system. The more you use it, the more likely recoverable data will be overwritten.

  • Never install data recovery software onto a volume if you require deleted data to be recovered. Installing software, creating, or copying files to the volume can permanently overwrite data in the free space of the volume and make it unrecoverable.

  • If critical data is inaccessible due to accidental deletion, device failure, or corruption, take the volume offline and unmount it immediately.
  • If you choose to attempt data recovery on your own, always work with a backup copy or image file of your data, volume, or virtual disk file.

  • Re-initialising or reformatting a problematic volume will remove all data and complicate data recovery attempts.

  • Only rebuild a RAID array if all of its member drives have been completely imaged, or you have a fully functional and verified backup.

  • Never attempt to force a failed RAID member drive online unless you have all member drives imaged.
