Configuring Backup Repositories

A backup repository is a storage location where Veeam Backup for RHV keeps backup files. By default, the backup server performs the role of a backup repository. To keep your backups in another storage location, you can configure the following types of repositories:

Direct attached storage: Microsoft Windows and Linux virtual and physical machines.
Network attached storage: CIFS (SMB) shares and NFS shares.
Deduplicating storage appliances: ExaGrid, Quantum DXi, Dell Data Domain, HPE StoreOnce.

To combine repositories of different types in one repository, you can also set up a scale-out backup repository.

Important

Veeam Backup for RHV does not support storing backups in Veeam Cloud Connect repositories.
