"If you choose to have Cloud Manager automatically restore your backup, Cloud Manager removes all existing data from the chosen servers and replaces that data with new backup data from your backup. For an automated restore, only the systems restoring and receiving the backup data needs to have Automation Agents installed."
The documented requirements on performing an automated restore need to be updated to also include a monitoring agent at least for the environment described above to work. We had to bring another monitoring agent in cluster B and shut down the one in cluster A in order for the automatic restore option to become available.
