Performing Instant Recovery from Tenant Backups

The SP can perform Instant Recovery for tenant workloads, that is, recover workloads from tenant backups in the cloud repository to the following platforms:

  • VMware vSphere
  • Microsoft Hyper-V

Before you perform Instant Recovery, check prerequisites and limitations. For details, see Instant Recovery from Tenant Backups.

To perform Instant Recovery:

  1. In the SP backup console, launch the Instant Recovery wizard.
  1. Open the Home view.
  2. In the inventory pane, click the Backups node.
  3. In the working area, click the backup whose data you want to restore to and click Instant Recovery on the ribbon or right-click the necessary backup and select Instant recovery.

To select multiple backups, press and hold the [CTRL] key, and then click or right-click the necessary backups.

  1. Then select the target platform.
  1. Follow the steps of the Instant Recovery wizard.

The Instant Recovery procedure for tenant backups is similar to the same procedure in the regular Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. The difference is that you cannot recover tenant backups to their original location.

  • [For Instant Recovery to VMware vSphere] Instant Recovery in the Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure is performed to a VMware vSphere VM on the SP virtualization host. Thus, in this scenario the Instant Recovery to VMware vSphere wizard does not include the Restore Mode step.

  • [For Instant Recovery to Microsoft Hyper-V] Instant Recovery in the Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure is performed to a Microsoft Hyper-V VM on the SP virtualization host. Thus, in this scenario the Instant Recovery to Microsoft Hyper-V wizard does not include the Recovery Mode step.
