Restoring Guest OS Files

You can restore individual guest OS files and folders from backups exported from Kasten. You can restore files and folders directly from image-level backups. For more information, see the Guest OS File Recovery section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.

Note

Consider the following:

  • Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes supports only restore from Linux, Unix and other non-Microsoft Windows OSes.
  • Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes does not support restore of individual guest OS files and folders to the original location (applications added to a Kasten cluster). You can only save files and folders to a new location. For more information, see the Saving Files to New Location section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.

To restore guest OS files from Linux, Unix and other file systems, do the following:

  1. Check considerations and limitations listed in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
  2. Launch and complete the Guest File Restore wizard. To do that, open the Home view and navigate to Backups > Disk. In the working area, select an application whose files you want to restore. On the ribbon, click Guest Files (Other). Alternatively, right-click the application and select Restore guest files > Linux and other.
  3. Complete the wizard as described in the Restoring VM Guest OS Files (Multi-OS) section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
