Hi all, I need support to find the correct way to merge 2 VEEAM Server into one.

We have VEEAM A and VEEAM B, both with their data domain. for now these two servers are separate and we want to merge A and B to have only A.

In my head we have to:

  1. Configure the DD of the VEEAM B on VEEAM A and rescan it.
  2. Configure a backup job with the VMs of the VEEAM B on the VEEAM A and, during the configuration, map the backup.

if we take these steps are we OK or I’m missing something?

Thank you.

Yes, you are right @Daniele 

  • disable Server B
  • connect DD B to server A
  • define a backup repository on Server A to DD B
  • rescan the new repository or set the checkbox to rescan automatically in the repo definition
  • make sure you can reach the maschine you want to backup from server A
  • build new backup jobs and map the backups on the repo an DD B to the new jobs

That would be the steps required as you mentioned, and you then have no issue with backup jobs or storage.
