    Backup from Storage Snapshots (VMware integration)

    Snapshot Orchestration and Backup from Storage Snapshots with Snapshot Retention (VMware integration)

    Snapshot jobs (snapshot-only jobs and backup jobs with storage snapshot retention) have the following limitations:

      • Enable HPE 3PAR Web Services API server. Veeam Backup & Replication uses the HPE 3PAR Web Services API server to work with the HPE StoreServ storage system.
      • A license for the HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage system must support HPE 3PAR Virtual Copy.
      • You can use backup jobs to create a snapshot chain either on a primary or on a secondary storage array, but you cannot configure snapshot creation on both storage arrays at the same time.
    • For snapshot-only jobs:
      • If a VM added to the job has several disks that reside on the same volume, you cannot exclude specific VM disks from the backup as Veeam Backup & Replication creates snapshots at the volume level.
      • Veeam Backup & Replication does not support guest file indexing for snapshot-only jobs.
      • You cannot perform backup of VMs residing on a VMware datastore that comprises several LUNs.

    Data Recovery from Storage Snapshots (VMware integration)

    Data Recovery from Storage Snapshots has the following limitations:

    To overcome these limitations, you must restore from storage snapshots created with the current version of Veeam Backup & Replication (starting from version 9.5 Update 4).
