    <title>topic data broker search for a deleted vm in VMware Solutions Discussions</title>
    <link>https://community.netapp.com/t5/VMware-Solutions-Discussions/data-broker-search-for-a-deleted-vm/m-p/153311#M9682</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have about 30 datastores backed up by data broker version 1.0.1 in multiple resource groups.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;One of my client accidentally deleted his vm.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have no documentation on which datastore the specific vm resided.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Is there any way to run a search or somehow sort all the backed up vms by the data broker? even through the swagger api if necessary.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I only see an option to go one-by-one for all datastores and look where it was.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;by the way, another question: if a datastore was completely deleted, is there a way to restore it from the data broker interface? or should I manually restore using ontap cli commands and create the flexclone myself?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
