A previous post, Backing up Azure VMs in the Azure Portal, showed you how to back up your Azure Resource Manager (ARM) or CSP virtual machines, and this post will show you how to recover a virtual machine using the Azure Portal.
I needed to clean up my lab to save some money so I deleted some virtual machines.

Navigate to (Browse > Recovery Services Vaults) and open the Recovery Services vault that you use to back up your virtual machines. Expand All Settings and select Backup Items. There you should see each virtual machine that was being backed up, along with the last backup status and latest available restore point.
The blade informed me that my missing virtual machine was successfully backed up at 8:08 PM during the previous evening.
