Importing Backups
To import a backup using the command line interface:
- 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@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig backup import --path /home/share/BackupJob/BackupJob.vbm
Backup has been imported successfully.
Session ID: [{4031f058-766c-4f2c-a7ae-7257adb2929f}].
Logs stored in: [/var/log/veeam/Import/Session_{4031f058-766c-4f2c-a7ae-7257adb2929f}]. |
- 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.
