Removing Veeam Agent Backups

You can remove Veeam Agent backups from Veeam Backup & Replication or permanently delete Veeam Agent backups from the Veeam backup repository.

Removing from Configuration

When you remove a Veeam Agent backup from configuration, Veeam Backup & Replication deletes all records about the backup from its database and console. The actual backup files remain on the backup repository. You can import the backup to the Veeam Backup & Replication at any time later and restore data from it.
