If you want to import index data, select the Import guest file system index check box. By default, index data of the VM guest OS file system is not imported with the backup to speed up the import process.It is recommended that you select the VBK file only if the VBM file is not available. If you select the VBM file, the import process will be notably faster. Click Browse and select the necessary VBM or VBK file.From the Computer list, select the server on which the backup you want to import is stored.To import a backup to the Veeam Backup & Replication console:
To be able to restore VM data from previous backup restore points, make sure that you have all required incremental backup files (forward or reverse) in the same folder where the full backup file resides.Otherwise you will not be able to access backup files. The server from which you plan to import backups must be added to the backup infrastructure.Each VM is in a separate folder when Veeam make the original backup, so everything on B2 is in subfolders.You can import backups created by a later version of Veeam Backup & Replication, however, restore operations for this backup will not be available.īefore you import a backup, check the following prerequisites: Here is what a typical subfolder in the bucket looks like. So that means I need to create a script to use the B2 API to hide or delete the files I want to remove from B2 in order to let B2's lifecycle rule then cleanup the bucket. Well, I don't want that because I want to retain the full backups for a year, but incremental backups for only 32 days on B2, but the local retention policy is different. Support stated that files deleted by the local side would be hidden depending on the sync solution. This would be great, but you cannot use a wildcarded to purge files. keep incremental backup files, *.vib for 32 days.īut I have a limitation from Backblaze that I need to overcome.ī2 buckets have a function called "Lifecycle Management" that you can use to automatically purge files from a bucket.keep full backups files, *.vbk, for 13 months.You can see me talk about it in this thread. This part has, more or less, been working perfectly. Ok, so I am using B2 for the offsite storage of Veeam backups via the native Cloud Sync app from Synology in their units.
