Examples
- You can instruct Veeam Backup & Replication to retry a job several times if the initial job pass fails.
- With backup copy, you can create several instances of the same backup file and copy them to secondary backup repositories for long-term storage.
- Depending on the size of the Veeam ONE database, the upgrade procedure may take several hours.
- This approach simplifies tracking license usage and license updates across multiple backup servers.
- For each VM, Veeam Backup & Replication starts a separate restore job. However, you can select multiple VMs to restore — in this case, Veeam Backup & Replication will queue the restore jobs and run them one after another.
- If the network capacity is not sufficient to support multiple data transfer connections, you can disable multithreaded data transfer or change the number of TCP/IP connections.
