Removing Backup from Configuration

If you want to remove records about Veeam Agent backups from the Veeam Backup & Replication console and configuration database, you can use the Remove from configuration operation. When you remove a Veeam Agent backup from configuration, 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.

You can remove an entire backup related to a Veeam Agent backup job or remove specific child backups — backups related to individual computers in the backup.

To remove a Veeam Agent backup from configuration:

1. Open the Home view.
2. In the inventory pane, click Backups.
3. In the working area select and remove the necessary backup:

• To remove the entire backup related to the Veeam Agent backup job or policy, select the backup and click Remove from > Configuration on the ribbon or right-click the backup and select Remove from configuration.
• To remove a backup of a specific computer in the Veeam Agent backup job or policy, expand the parent backup, select the necessary computer and click Remove from > Configuration on the ribbon or right-click the computer and select Remove from configuration.
