You can restore Linux machines from Veeam Agent backups to Amazon EC2. You can use backups created on the Veeam backup repository. Only volume-level backups are supported.
|
If the disk you want to restore contains an LVM volume group, Veeam Agent will restore the original disk and the LVM volume group as 2 separate disks. Among other things, this leads to the increase of the required storage space. For example, you restore a machine with 2 disks, and a separate LVM volume group is configured on each of these disks. In this case, Veeam Agent will restore 4 disks. The restored disks will consume storage space equal to the size of 2 original disks and 2 LVM volume groups from these disks. |
The procedure of restore to Amazon EC2 from a Veeam Agent backup practically is similar to the same restore procedure from a VM backup. To learn more, see the Restore to Amazon EC2 section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
