For more information, see Synchronizing Capacity Tier Data.
If an object storage repository that is being added already contains offloaded data, you will be prompted to synchronize this data with your extents. Note :- You can only add one object storage per scale-out backup repository.Īn object storage repository cannot be added as part of two or more different scale-out backup repositories at the same time. Here we choose the Azure blob storage we created in the part1 and retention 1 day and Click Next At the Capacity Tier step of the wizard, specify an object storage repository to which you want to offload your data and configure policies to trigger data transfer.
#Veeam backup files full#
For example, if you have added three extents to the scale-out backup repository, you may want to store full backup files on one extent and incremental backup files - on the other two extents. Note:-If you select the Performance policy, you can restrict which types of backup files can be stored on a specific extent. If you set the Performance policy, you must make sure that the network connection is fast and reliable so that Veeam Backup & Replication can access all backup files from the backup chain. Performance:- This option will allow you to store full and incremental backup files to different extents of the scale-out backup repository. The new backup chain may be stored to the same extent or to another extent (unless you use a deduplicating storage appliance as an extent). In this case, a full backup file and subsequent incremental backup files will be stored to the same extent of the scale-out backup repository.
#Veeam backup files free#
If you enable this option, you must make sure that you have enough free space on the scale-out backup repository to host a full backup file.įrom Policy step of the wizard, Set the backup file placement policy for the scale-out backup repository, this will specify how you want to store backup files on extents of the scale-out backup repository, here we Choose Data localityĭata locality:- This option will allow you to store backup files that belong to the same backup chain together. With this option enabled, Veeam Backup & Replication will create a full backup file instead of an incremental backup file. Veeam Backup & Replication will not be able to add a new incremental backup file. If an extent that contains previous restore points from the current backup chain gets offline, the backup chain will be broken. Perform full backup when the required extent is offline:- This option is used to p reserve the consistency of backup chains on the scale-out backup repository. It is recommended that you enable this option to achieve better storage and compute resource utilization, especially if you use as a backup repository a deduplicating storage appliance that supports multiple write streams. With this option enabled, during one backup job session, Veeam Backup & Replication will produce a number of backup files - one per every VM, and will write these files to the backup repository in multiple streams simultaneously. Use per-VM backup files:- This option can be selected for creating a separate backup chain for every VM in the job.
