Immutability for Scale-Out Backup Repositories

Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to prohibit deletion of data from object storage repositories added as the extents of the scale-out backup repository by making that data temporarily immutable. It is done for increased security: immutability protects your data against loss as a result of attacks, malware activity or other injurious actions.

You can enable the immutability feature for any tier of scale-out backup repository.

To learn how immutability works with the performance tier of the scale-out backup repository, see Immutability for Performance Tier.

To learn how immutability works with the capacity tier of the scale-out backup repository, see Immutability for Capacity Tier.

To learn how immutability works with the archive tier of the scale-out backup repository, see Immutability for Archive Tier.

Note

Before you use an object storage repository as an immutable extent, you must configure immutability for this object storage beforehand. For more information, see Enabling immutability for object storage repositories.
