    Backup of Regular and Standalone VMs

    • VM disk content
    • vApp metadata
    • VM metadata

    Data to Back Up 

    Backup of Linked Clone VMs

    When you back up linked clone VMs, Veeam Backup & Replication captures and stores to the backup file the following data:

    • Content of the template to which the VM is linked
    • Content of the VM user disk — delta disk
    • vApp metadata
    • VM metadata

    Data to Back Up 

    During full backup of linked clone VMs, Veeam Backup & Replication consolidates data of the VM template and delta disk and saves it as a regular VM disk in the backup file. Data merging guarantees proper VM restore: even if a VM template is lost by the time of recovery, you will still be able to restore the linked clone VM from the backup.

    During incremental backup, Veeam Backup & Replication saves only changed data of the delta file.
