We currently use Veeam B&R to backup the share’s to a local repo on the backup box. I then created a second job (agent) to backup the drive B:\backups to the clients VSPC repo. It works but when I attempt a restore of the cloud data its a restore of what looks like a database and not browsable files like a restore of the original B&R job produces. Hopping for a more elegant solution that doesn't require a two restores to get client data into a usable form. thanks and sorry for this being one of those out there kind of questions.

Why not do a file copy job instead of Agent based backup? That would make things easier from within the console.
Yeah...you could do a file share copy as Chris suggests, or even a backup copy to do what you’re wanting:

Wouldn’t have to worry about fudging around with Agents.
The file copy job only list the backup box as a source with the local drives as objects? Backup copy list’s “From jobs or From repositories” only and file backup jobs are not included and the local repository shows 0 objects. I feel like we are just missing something, but I have two separate deployments with the same limitations?
Hmm..interesting
🤔
I no longer have a file share backup to test creating a Copy Job from it. At the very least...you could contact Support to assist.
Thanks, I’ll open a case.
