【原创】还原Hyper-V 到一个新的虚拟机

Context: I need to restore VM31 backup (via 'Windows Server Backup' tool) as another new Hyper-V machine to do TFS migration testing.
Steps:
1.Restore VM31 Hyper-V files from the backup by 'Windows Server backup' tool to another folder, you will see there are several *.avhd files (if there are snapshot)
and one *.vhd file and other XML files in the restored folder.
2.If you create a new machine and attach the VHD file as virtual hard disk directly for the new machine, you would detect it is the initial status
3.Here is the method: you have to mannually merge the AVHD files in to their parent one by one.
