Periodic copy jobs can be scheduled to run during non-business hours or low-activity periods, reducing the impact on production systems. This allows you to efficiently manage backup and copy operations without causing disruption.
Immediate copies help reduce your RPO, which is the maximum allowable data loss in the event of a disaster. By creating copies as soon as new data is backed up, you ensure that your data loss is minimal.
This process creates a backup job to backup the VMS of the Hyper-V host but not all of them.
You also need to install Cumulative Patches P20230718 for Veeam Backup & Replication Console 12 after installation to Veeam Backup & Replication 12 management server.
Veeam Backup & Replication 12 cumulative patch P20230718 was Released on March 07, 2023, and last modified on August 03, 2023.
This procedure creates a backup job to back up all VMS of the production Hyper-V host. The new VMS will be backed up automatically after the backup job is created. You don’t need to modify the backup job settings.
This procedure uses the managed by agent mode to create a backup job to back up the specific physical production machines.
This procedure uses the managed backup server mode to create a backup job to back up the specific physical production machines.
Immutable Backup is a Veeam Backup & Replication feature that protects against ransomware attacks by preventing malicious software from modifying or deleting backup data.
Immutable backup means that once data is written to a backup repository, it cannot be modified, overwritten, or deleted until a specified retention period has passed. This can prevent ransomware from corrupting or encrypting backup data because the malware cannot modify or delete the backup files.
To backup VMs, you must first create a backup job. The backup job specifies how, where, and when VM data should be backed up. A single job can process one or more virtual machines. Jobs can be started by hand or scheduled for a specific time.
This scenario is useful if you want to store backups on multiple external hard drives that you intend to move between locations. The drives that are rotated can be detachable USB or eSATA hard drives.
You can use network-attached storage (SMB or CIFS Shares) as backup repositories with Veeam Backup and Replication. A network-attached storage (NAS) device can be a shared folder on your computer or any other physical device accessed via the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol.
You can add the following types of storage to the Microsoft Windows server as a backup repository
You can back up and restore the On-Premises physical machines running Windows operating systems. Backup agents are installed on each computer by Veeam Backup & Replication.
Veeam’s WAN acceleration technology optimizes data transfer to remote locations. It is explicitly designed for off-site backup copy and replication jobs. You must deploy a pair of WAN accelerators in your backup infrastructure to enable WAN acceleration and data deduplication technologies.
Off-Host Backup proxy servers will retrieve VM data from the source datastore, process it and transfer it to the destination. The off-host backup proxy removes unwanted overhead on the production Hyper-V host.
Veeam Backup & Replication can perform backup, replication, and file copy operations on Microsoft Hyper-V VMs whose discs are located on Microsoft SMB3 file shares.
You must add the Microsoft Hyper-V clusters you plan to use as source and target for backup, replication and other activities.
You must add the Microsoft Hyper-V standalone hosts you plan to use as source and target for backup, replication and other activities.
PostgreSQL is free and has no size limit or compute restrictions has improved performance over SQL Express.
