Required Job Settings

When you create backup jobs, replication jobs, and CDP policies, make sure to enable application-aware processing in the Veeam Backup & Replication console:

• When you configure a backup job, you can do this at the Specify Guest Processing Settings step of the New Backup Job wizard.
• When you configure a replication job, you can do this at the Specify Guest Processing Settings step of the New Replication Job wizard.
• When you configure a CDP policy, you can do this at the Specify Guest Processing Settings step of the New CDP Policy wizard.

If you do not enable application-aware processing, the created restore points will be crash-consistent only. Browsing data and application item restore from crash-consistent restore points with Veeam Explorer for PostgreSQL is not supported.

Consider the following:

• For backups made with Veeam Backup for OLVM and RHV and Veeam Backup for Proxmox VE, application-aware processing is not supported.
• For VeeamZIP backups, application-aware processing is not supported. For more information, see the VeeamZIP section of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
• For storage snapshots, application-aware processing is automatically enabled. For more information, see the Application Item Restore from Storage Snapshots section of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
