Before You Begin

Before you publish disks, check the following requirements and limitations:

• The necessary ports must be opened on the target server. For more information, see Ports.
• The target server must support the file system of the disk that you plan to publish.
• If data deduplication is enabled for some disks in a backup, data deduplication must be enabled on the target server.
• The 32-bit version of a Linux server is not supported as the target server.
• You cannot publish disks from backups stored in the Veeam Cloud Connect repository.
• If the disk you want to publish contains a Logical Volume Manager (LVM) volume group, Veeam Agent will publish the original disk and the LVM volume group as 2 separate disks. This may lead to the increase of the required storage space. For example, if you publish all disks from a backup of a machine that has 2 disks and a separate LVM volume group on each disk, Veeam Agent will publish 4 disks. The published disks will consume storage space equal to the size of 2 original disks and 2 LVM volume groups from these disks.

For the full list of limitations, see the Considerations and Limitations section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
