Restore GCP VM Instance

Restores a GCP VM instance from an Eon snapshot.

When restoring a GCP VM instance, you’ll need to specify the configurations of the instance and each disk you want to restore. You can retrieve the configurations from the snapshot by calling Get Snapshot or List Resource Snapshots.

This operation is asynchronous. It triggers a restore job and returns a job ID, which can be used to track the progress of the restore job. You can follow the progress of the restore job by calling Get Restore Job with the job ID.
