## Use Case

Veeam Backup & Replication supports a notion of location which you can assign to virtual infrastructure, backup infrastructure and agent management objects. Location settings helps to monitor where production data and their copies and replicas reside geographically.

The report analyzes the location of backups, backup copies and replicas for a data source and displays it as pie charts. This visual representation will help you monitor your data in a geographically disperse infrastructure.
