Avamar doesn't have control to create the MAC address during vm restore/creation. The ESXi is responsible of generating a unique mac address automatically when the VM is powered on.
Appreciate your update and feedback if this was helpful to solve the problem; don't forget to mark the question as answered when the problem is solved.
