Another way to obtain a content database file from the VM backup is to perform guest OS file recovery using Veeam Backup & Replication File-Level Restore (FLR) wizard. When you perform file-level restore, the VM image is not extracted from the backup - the content of a backup file is mounted directly to the corresponding mount server. Then it is displayed in the inbuilt Veeam Backup Browser, and you can copy the files and then add them to Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SharePoint.
This section will guide you through the steps of the File-Level Restore (FLR) wizard necessary to mount the backup file to the Veeam backup server and extract the content database files.
