Using with Veeam Backup and Replication

You can use Veeam Data Cloud Vault as a target location for backups created by Veeam Backup & Replication. To do this, you must add Veeam Data Cloud Vault as an object storage repository in Veeam Backup & Replication and configure a backup job targeted at this repository.

Starting from Veeam Backup & Replication 12.3, you do not need to obtain credentials for a storage vault and provide them when connecting to Veeam Data Cloud Vault in Veeam Backup & Replication. Instead, you follow the procedure of connecting the products through the My Account portal. Once the procedure is completed, Veeam Backup & Replication uses a security certificate to connect to Veeam Data Cloud Vault and transfer backup data to the target location over a secure connection.

To start using Veeam Data Cloud Vault with Veeam Backup & Replication, do the following:

1. In the Veeam Backup & Replication console, launch the New Object Storage Repository wizard:

1. Open the Backup Infrastructure view.

3. In the Add Backup Repository window, select Veeam Data Cloud Vault.

2. At the Account step of the New Object Storage Repository wizard, click Authorize.

3. In the displayed window, enter credentials of the user account under which you access the My Account portal and click Sign In. Typically, this is the account you use to log in to the Veeam website to download the Veeam Backup & Replication installation media or obtain the license.
4. Veeam will register the Veeam backup server on the My Account portal. In the Veeam Backup & Replication console, at the Account step of the New Object Storage Repository wizard, click Manage.

5. On the displayed webpage, log in to the My Account portal.
6. To connect Veeam Backup & Replication to Veeam Data Cloud Vault, you must obtain a Veeam Data Cloud Vault subscription and create at least one storage vault in this subscription. If you did not perform these tasks in advance, complete them on the My Account portal. For details, see Obtaining Subscription and Creating Storage Vault.
7. On the My Account portal, connect Veeam Backup & Replication to Veeam Data Cloud Vault. To do this, do the following:

1. In the main menu, click Cloud Management > Backup Servers.
2. On the Backup Servers page, select the backup server that you want to connect to Veeam Data Cloud Vault.
3. In the Vaults section, expand the Veeam Data Cloud Vault subscription that contains the storage to which you want to connect Veeam Backup & Replication, locate the necessary storage and turn on the toggle next to the Storage Status field.

If you have more than one storage vault configured in Veeam Data Cloud Vault, repeat this step for all storage vaults you want to become available in Veeam Backup & Replication.
