A good plan is to save these files in a separated location, for example the same repository where is save your backups in this way, whatever happens to your Veeam server, you do not need to do a complete reinstallation of it before being ready to initiate the restore. In this way, whatever is your desired way to initiate a restored, you can use one of the three available tools and start a restore. – extract is the linux command line utility – extract.exe is the windows command line utility Whenever you install Veeam Backup & Replication, all the binaries of the Extract utility are stored into the main installaton folderĬ:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup\ Let’s see how it works.įirst of all, its location.
The second one is the Extract utility: a little tool, directly available in any Veeam Backup & Replication installation, that can do restores without the complete installation. So, as long as you have the backup file, you can read informations of its content and start a restore. All the informations about the contents of a backup file are saved directly into the backup file itself. The first one is the catalog: there is no central catalog even if there is a central database. This is completely untrue: there are two main features in Veeam that make restores possible even without the server installation. So, this becomes a Single Point of Failure, just like many other solutions from competitors. One of the biggest misconceptions about Veeam Backup & Replication, often fueled by competitors, is that it requires the complete server installation in order to run restores. 0 Flares Twitter 0 Facebook 0 LinkedIn 0 Email - 0 Flares ×
