Enabling Additional Backup Copy
[This step applies only if you have selected file systems resided in default AWS Regions at the Sources step of the wizard. There is a limitation on the AWS Backup service side — cross-region copying of FSx backups is not supported for opt-in Regions]
If you want to copy FSx file system backups to other AWS Regions, do the following:
- In the Backup copies section of the Targets step of the wizard, set the Create backup copies toggle to On.
- In the Choose backup vaults window, configure the following mapping settings for each AWS Region where original file systems reside:
- Select a source AWS Region in the list and click Edit Region Mapping.
- In the Edit Region Mapping window, specify the following settings:
- From the Target region drop-down list, select the target AWS Region to which Veeam Backup for AWS must copy created backups of the selected file systems. The region list shows only the default AWS Regions (that is, the AWS Regions activated for the AWS account by default).
- From the Backup vault drop-down list, select a backup vault that will be used to store the copied backups.
For a backup vault to be displayed in the Backup vault list, it must be created in the AWS Backup console as described in AWS Documentation. If you have not created a backup vault for the selected AWS Region, Veeam Backup for AWS will display only the default backup vault existing in this region.
