Backup Repositories

A backup repository is a storage location where Veeam keeps backup files and metadata for replicated VMs.

Note

Consider the following:

  • Do not configure multiple backup repositories pointing to the same location or using the same path.
  • Do not configure multiple backup repositories with "nested" paths (when one repository path is a sub-path of another repository), for example:

/mnt/repo/backups/

/mnt/repo/backups/production/

You can use the following storage types as backup repositories:

  • Object storage. You can use cloud storage services as backup repositories. For more information, see Object Storage Repository.
