Description

Using the VMWare hypervisor, and with Veeam integration enabled, a full restore of a VM using a backup in Veeam occurs correctly, but in ACS an exception is thrown: Restore VM Backup (607c2bbf-2c23-49a1-9549-cd402441dcb5) Error during vm backup restore and import: Invalid string format

Upon adding more logs to the restore process, it was discovered that this was because the VM being restored had no value in the hostid attribute.

This PR fixes this behavior, increments the logs in the restore process for VMs using backups and adds new unit tests.

How Has This Been Tested?

It was tested in a local laboratory:

1. I have assigned one VM to a Backup Offering;
2. I backed up the VM manually;
3. I tried to perform a full VM restore using this backup;
4. Before, there was an exception in ACS, now the restore finishes without problems.
