Configuring Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure

To start working with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure, perform a number of steps for its configuration:

  1. Create accounts to get access to your Azure resources.
  2. Add backup repositories.
  3. Create worker configurations.
  4. Configuring global retention, auto-backup and email notification settings.

 

Note

Even after you add accounts that manage your Azure resources and configure all the necessary settings, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure will not populate the list of Azure VMs on the Instances page — unless you create backup policies and specify the regions where the Azure VMs belong, as described in section Creating Backup Policies.
