Step 3. Select Backup Location

At the Backup Location step of the wizard, select the location of the backup repository.

You can select one of the following options:

• Local storage — select this option if you want to restore data from the backup that resides on a local computer drive, direct or network attached storage — for example, a USB flash drive or locally mounted SMB share. After you select this option and specify the location of the backup file, you will pass to the Restore Point step of the wizard.
• Veeam backup repository — select this option if you want to restore data from the backup that resides in a backup repository managed by the Veeam backup server. With this option selected, you will pass to the Backup Server step of the wizard.
• Veeam Cloud Connect repository — select this option if you want to restore data from the backup that resides in a cloud repository exposed to you by the Veeam Cloud Connect service provider. With this option selected, you will pass to the Service Provider step of the wizard.
• Object storage repository — select this option if you want to restore data from the backup that resides in an object storage repository exposed to you by third-party vendors. With this option selected, you will pass to the Cloud Type step of the wizard.
