Creating Backup Files

In this article

You can restore machines to Microsoft Azure from the following types of backups:

Backups files of Microsoft Windows and Linux VMs created with Veeam Backup & Replication

Backups of Microsoft Windows machines created with Veeam Agent for Windows. Backups must be created at the entire machine level or volume level.

Backups of Linux machines created with Veeam Agent for Linux. Backups must be created at the entire machine level or volume level.

You can restore a machine to the latest restore point or any previous restore point in the backup chain. A backup chain from which you plan to restore a machine must reside on a backup repository added to the backup infrastructure.

You can also import a backup to the Veeam Backup & Replication console. For more information, see Importing Backups.
