Hi,
You can choose a new VMID when using the storage's content view for restore.

 

[t.lamprecht]

or on the command line you can use:

# get volume id of backup first:
pvesm list STORAGE --content backup
# then restore, e.g. with vmid 12345 here to the same storage as the original was:
qmrestore pbs-store:backup/vm/100/2021-03-23T12:30:02Z 12345
