Hi there,

I’ve created a backup repo in my Veeam for 365 backups and also specified an extent to offload to Azure:

Since that’s live I have no backup data on my local disks other than some sort of a cache… looks like everything has been pushed to Azure. Is there a way to still have local backups and then offload to Azure like we do with Veeam B&R ?

Thank you.

Hi

Yes, local cache is only cache. It doesn‘t behave like a SOBR in VBR.

Data goes to object storage and the local cache contains metadata of the backup.

If you want to have a local copy, you have to create additional backup jobs and backup the data twice.

I suggest using a backup copy job to send the backups to Azure Archive Storage if you want to have a second copy.

Thanks
