Restore from Veeam Backup & Replication Backups

You can restore Microsoft Exchange data from backups created by Veeam Backup & Replication to the original location or other on-premises Microsoft organizations and Microsoft 365 organizations.

Consider the following:

  • If your Veeam Explorer for Microsoft Exchange comes as part of Veeam Backup & Replication, the backup content is loaded automatically when you open Veeam Explorer for Microsoft Exchange.
  • If your Veeam Explorer for Microsoft Exchange comes as part of a standalone Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 installation, you cannot restore from Veeam Backup & Replication backups by default. To enable this functionality, install Veeam Backup & Replication on the machine and add a Microsoft Exchange database. For more information, see Adding Microsoft Exchange Databases.

You can get the EDB or ADB files directly from the original Microsoft Exchange machine, or you can use Veeam Backup & Replication to restore guest OS files of the machine. For more information, see the Restore from Microsoft Windows File Systems (FAT, NTFS or ReFS) section of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.

Before restoring data, read the Considerations and Limitations section.
