Managing Backup Repositories

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure uses blob containers as target locations for image-level backups of Azure VMs, backups of Azure SQL databases and Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL accounts, and backup copies of virtual network configurations. To store backups in blob containers, configure backup repositories. A repository is a specific folder created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure in a blob container.

Important

A backup repository must not be added to multiple backup appliances. Otherwise, retention sessions running on different backup appliances may corrupt backups stored in the repository, which may result in unpredictable data loss.
