Step 7. Specify Mount Server Settings

In this article

    At the Mount Server step of the wizard, specify settings for the mount server that you plan to use for file-level and application items restore. 

    From the Mount Server list, select a server that you want to use as a mount server. The mount server is required for file-level and application items restore. During the restore process, Veeam Backup & Replication will mount the VM disks from the backup file residing on the backup repository to the mount server. As a result, VM data will not have travel over the network, which will reduce the load on the network and speed up the restore process. For more information, see Mount Server.

    The Mount Server list contains only Microsoft Windows servers that are added to the backup infrastructure. If the server is not added to the backup infrastructure yet, select Add server at the bottom of the list to open the New Windows Server wizard. For more information, see Adding Microsoft Windows Servers.
