Veeam Data Platform backups
- Instant recovery helped us migrate VM's off VMware to HyperV. We know we can go the other way if needed.
- Instant recovery allows restores of machines faster than previously possible with older versions of Veeam Data Platform.
- Backup to disk allows faster backup times allowing critical systems to also be on an hourly backup schedule.
- Would be nice if the linux bits did not complain as much about wanting to be immutable.
- Would be nice to have a backup method for the main backup server to be able to restore from a data location like any other machine.
- It would be nice if things would be a little more integrated into one client vs. having a client for backup, client for veeam one, enterprise manager, etc.
September 12, 2023
Would like network speed setting capability added to Veeam Backups.
- Backup all servers
- Store long term sectioned by weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly
- Backup developments
- Would be nice as backups are stored you can select the speed at which it is backed up.
- Would be nice to select different speeds also changeable by time of day.
- Do you have compression?
