Hi
We have a Dell T130 RAID 5 - 4 X 1TB Drives No hot spare - DELL PERC H330 Adp SCSI Disk.
What is best practice to back this up with Veeam ?
Regards

Yeah, as long as the RAID/PERC driver is loaded, the restore should see the virtual disk as a disk to restore to, similar to what you’d see on a workstation.
Thank you Micheal
Hi,
A full metal recovery process is identical to an endpoint.
The only considerations are:
Your hardware might require a particular RAID driver to boot, in which case, create your recovery media from the server to ensure the driver is automatically included, if this doesn’t work for some reason you can still load a driver during the recovery wizard. (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agentforwindows/userguide/baremetal_source.html?ver=50).

If you ended up with a new RAID controller, you might need to recreate your RAID array, this would need to be done before attempting to restore onto the disks. Otherwise this would likely be seen as a bunch of independent disks. Or fail to show altogether.
Hi Paul
Thank you and yes its a physical server.
What is the recovery process like with Veeam agent?
Note: I have used it on client PC’s very successfully so was wondering
if the process was simular in a RAID 5 suitation?
