Hi, I notice that when I backup the same machine with different jobs (each job contains the same machine) via Agent that B&R stores the backup copies under different directories and hence multiple copies of that machines backup up are saved. Is there a way to get around this so only one copy is saved?
Thanks
Hi
Are you saying the vbk/vib files for this Agent computer in a single job are stored in different Repo locations? Or, are you saying this Agent computer is in more than one backup job and has multiple backup files on different Repos cuz it's in multiple jobs which have a different Repos set?
Veeam stores all backup files on the Repo configured for the job. The only case where the backup files can be on different Repo storage is when you use Scale Out Backup Repository & configure it with the Performance Policy:

You have two jobs so that is two different chains for backup. You cannot have one server in two seperate jobs using the same files. Even if they are on SOBR they will not combine as it is still two jobs.
Oops...overlooked he said 2 different jobs 
My meaning about SOBR was files can be on different storage (extents) within the same SOBR within the same job with Perf Policy. To keep them on the same extents in a SOBR you'd use a Data Locality policy. You cannot combine files for multiple jobs on a "shared" Repo as Chris shared.

Hello, I have a question. In Veeam version 12.2, when backing up in a virtualized environment with the Veeam proxy transferring data to the Veeam repository, if I schedule two backup jobs at the same time, will these two backups be processed in multithreading mode?

They will be processed based on the number of tasks the proxy can handle based on CPU cores. This site explains Proxy processing well - https://bp.veeam.com/vbr/2_Design_Structures/D_Veeam_Components/D_backup_proxies/vmware_proxies.html
