- **Recover as virtual machine to any host**: MABS supports alternate location recovery (ALR), which provides a seamless recovery of a protected Azure Local virtual machine to a different host within the same cluster, independent of processor architecture. Azure Local virtual machines that are recovered to a cluster node won't be highly available. If you choose this option, the Recovery Wizard presents you with an additional screen for identifying the destination and destination path.

- **Copy to a network folder**: MABS supports item-level recovery (ILR), which allows you to do item-level recovery of files, folders, volumes, and virtual hard disks (VHDs) from a host-level backup of Azure Local virtual machines to a network share or a volume on a MABS protected server. The MABS protection agent doesn't have to be installed inside the guest to perform item-level recovery. If you choose this option, the Recovery Wizard presents you with an additional screen for identifying the destination and destination path.
