Veeam Backup Repositories

You can store MongoDB backup files in repositories added to the Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. In this section, you can find the list of supported backup repositories and limitations for MongoDB backups.

Supported Backup Repositories

You can use the following types of repositories added to the Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure to store MongoDB backups:

• Windows Server
• Linux Server
• SMB (CIFS) Share

• NFS Share

• Dell Data Domain with Data Domain Boost (DDBoost)

• Fujitsu ETERNUS CS800
• Infinidat InfiniGuard

• HPE StoreOnce

If you plan to use HPE StoreOnce as a backup repository for MongoDB backups, the total number of stored files (data and metadata) must not exceed 3,000,000 per Catalyst store. If necessary, multiple Catalyst stores may be created on the same StoreOnce system.

• Quantum DXi
• ExaGrid

Make sure the repository is configured as described in the ExaGrid section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.

• Hardened Repository

• Object Storage Repository

• Scale-Out Backup Repository

If you plan to use the scale-out backup repository, consider the following:

• Make sure that the scale-out backup repository contains repositories supported by MongoDB Backup.
• If you plan to store MongoDB backups on scale-out backup repositories, Veeam Backup & Replication can store MongoDB backup files only in the performance tier. The capacity tier and the archive tier are not supported for MongoDB backups.
