Performing Backup
To produce backups,Veeam Backup for Microsoft Entra ID runs backup jobs. A backup job is a collection of settings that define the way backup operations are performed: what data to back up, where to store backups, when to start the backup process, and so on.
Veeam Backup for Microsoft Entra ID supports two types of backup jobs:
- Tenant backup jobs that protect tenant data — users, groups, administrative units, roles and applications.
- Log jobs that protect tenant audit and sign-in logs.
One backup job can protect data of only one tenant. You can instruct Veeam Backup for Microsoft Entra ID to run jobs automatically according to a specified schedule or start them manually.
