![]() ![]() The transfer reads the VM and the associated restore point from the source repository, and constructs the VM and the associated restore point to the target repository. The target is another repository (CIFS/Local Disk/UNC path/LUN/NFS mount, etc.). The source is one or more virtual machines within one or more VBK (Veeam backup file) files. What is it? It is a technique that writes virtual machine restore points to another repository. But let me explain what the Backup Copy Job is first off (Then we'll talk about the file copy job). As for why are they only 16.5 MB, that must have something to do with the backups - especially if there are no changed blocks. Hey guys, I think what Tobakslovakian is trying to do can be accomplished with the Backup Copy Job. ![]() If my entire datacenter went up in flames, yet I have these backup copies offsite, how do I turn those copies back into a production VM? vbmk over to other storage, but it seems to only copy incremental 16.5MB files? I read this on another post, from Veeam rep Vladimir: "Please, be aware that Veeam Backup Copy Job doesn’t copy backup files as the whole, instead, it synthetically creates required restore points in remote location from VM data in source backup repositories."Īfter that information, I'm trying to wrap my head around backup copy, and not really getting it if it is not an full backup, what good is it in DR scenario. We setup Backup Copy, which I thought would simply copy the full. I'm not finding something similar in Veeam, other than simply creating another job task? I'm guessing that's not the way to do it though, as that's twice the performance hit to VM hosts. In my previous CDP world, I would have a secondary offsite server doing delta transfers of our primary server, thus backing everything up 1-for-1. Everything is going very well, but I'm not finding the best method to having redundant local and offsite backups. ![]() ![]() Coming from the world of R1Soft/Idera CDP for the last half a decade, and recently moved to Veeam Enterprise. ![]()
