You can import a backup created by Veeam Agent for Linux into the Veeam Agent for Linux database. For example, you may want to import a previously deleted backup or backup that was created in a network shared folder by Veeam Agent for Linux installed on another computer.
To import a backup:
- Start the import process with the following command:
veeamconfig backup import --path <path> |
where:
<path> — path to the VBM file of the backup that you want to import.
For example:
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig backup import --path /home/share/BackupJob/BackupJob.vbm |
- You can monitor the import process and result by viewing the import session log with the following command:
veeamconfig session log --id <session_id> |
where:
<session_id> — ID of the import session.
For example:
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig session log --id 4031f058-766c-4f2c-a7ae-7257adb2929f |
- Imported backup will be displayed in the list of backups. To view the list of backups, use the following command:
veeamconfig backup list |
For example:
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig backup list |
To import an encrypted backup:
veeamconfig backup import --path <path> |
<path> — path to the VBM file of the backup that you want to import.
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig backup import --path /home/share/srv15\ Backup/Backup.vbm |
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig backup import --path /home/share/srv15\ Backup/Backup.vbm |
veeamconfig backup list |
user@srv01:~$ veeamconfig backup list |
