虚拟机复制副本类型的支持平台
Veeam Backup & Replication automatically selects which type of VM replica to create depending on the versions of the source and target Microsoft Hyper-V hosts.
New Replication Jobs
If you create replication jobs with Veeam Backup & Replication, the replication job will produce VM replicas of the following types:
Source/Target | Target 2008 R2 | Target 2012-2019* |
|---|---|---|
Data source: production storage | ||
Source 2008 R2 | Legacy | Snapshot |
Source 2012-2019 | Not supported | Snapshot |
Data source: backup | ||
Source 2008 R2 | Not supported | Snapshot |
Source 2012-2019 | Not supported | Snapshot |
*Target OS version must be equal or higher than Source OS version
For example:
- You configure a replication job with a Microsoft Hyper-V 2008 R2 host used as a source and a Microsoft Hyper-V 2008 R2 host used as a target. VM data is retrieved from the production storage. In this case, the replication job will produce a legacy replica.
- You configure a replication job with a Microsoft Hyper-V 2012 R2 host used as a source and a Microsoft Hyper-V 2016 host used as a target. VM data is retrieved from the production storage. In this case, the replication job will produce a snapshot replica.
Existing Replication Jobs
After you upgrade Veeam Backup & Replication, legacy replication jobs remain as they are. They do not change their type to snapshot replication jobs.
After you upgrade Veeam Backup & Replication, replication jobs work as usual. However, if you have legacy replication jobs that use Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 host and later as a target, and these jobs were created with Veeam Backup & Replication earlier than 9.0, you will not be able to edit these jobs.
Legacy replication jobs can use only the virtual infrastructure as a source of data. Replication from backup is not supported for legacy replication jobs.
