Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:
When a virtual machine is restored to an alternate namespace, the virtual machine is restored with the same firmware uuid as the original virtual machine if the vm spec had firmware uuid specified. This could result in fimrware uuid address conflict if the original virtual machine is still running in the original namespace.
Describe the solution you'd like:
Provide functionality to blank out or create new firmware uuid in vm and vmi spec based on label or annotation in velero restore job.
Describe alternatives you've considered:
None

Hi @30787, thanks for the proposal! This was already addressed in #317, which includes a label that allows overriding the firmware UUID for all restored VM/VMIs and creates a new one. Does this work for you? You should be able to test this in the latest plugin release.
Thanks @alromeros. Does it mean that bios uuid from vm spec and standalone vmi is restored from backup copy by default and can be renewed with a new one using the label velero.kubevirt.io/generate-new-firmware-uuid in the velero restore job. For VMI owned by VM(if bios/firmware uuid is not specified in VM spec) bios/firmware uuid is always renwed by default right since VMI is not restored.
