The restore operation deletes the previously-saved memory-state le and assigns a new
ID to the virtual machine. The virtual machine name and UUID remain the same as
previously saved.
IMPORTANT
After using the save operation, do not boot, start, or run the virtual machine
you intend to restore. If the virtual machine is at any time restarted before it
is restored, the saved memory-state le becomes invalid and should not be
used to restore.
