Hi, Yes that is possible. Depending on your setup, what you could do is copy your backups to the DR site and then run the backup to tape job there. Another option is that you could perform a Veeam backup to a repository at the DR site and then run the tape backup job there. However, do bear in mind that if you setup another Veeam instance, you may need additional licensing. Yes that is possible. Depending on your setup, what you could do is copy your backups to the DR site and then run the backup to tape job there. --- FOR THIS, i should have server and storage in dr site for veeam mgmt and repo?
OK. you will need a server at the DR site as a Veeam tape server and connect the tape library to it. The network connection between the primary site and the DR site has to be stable and has to have enough bandwidth to send your amount of data in your time window. The scenario is a standard scenario, no problem. But please keep in mind that you make a configuration backup of your VBR database and copy it to the DR site, too. With this you can setup a VBR server at the DR site and restore the backups. On the other hand, you can move the VBR server to the DR site, too and keep a simple repository server at the primary site for your primary backups. Then you have complete backup environment at your DR site in a disaster. But here you should copy a configuration backup to the other site, too. In case the DR site is destroyed…. ---- Thank you for this!We have to remain the vbr server and primary storage (90tb) in Primary site for faster restoration. Then relocate the tape going to DR site
Hi @JustineP, as far as I know, direct replication between VMWare and Nutanix is not possible. You can look for instant recovery from you backup repo to the Nutanix environment as a possible solution. Yes, veeam replication must be the same hypervisor. Is there way like backup copy job, work around so that customer will use the veeam for their requirements?
I really like this topic, inter Hypervisors workarounds! I would suggest to keep it very simple. If your storage is fast enough, and is a DR solution, I would suggest to have a Veeam B&R Installed on the Nutanix AHV Cluster, with visibility of the Backup Repos, or at least with the Backup Copy repo, so in case of need, you can restore your VMs to AHV and keep operating. After the DR, you will need to move those vis back to the Vsphere environment, maybe with a backup + restore, or other methods. hope this helps a bit. The objective is must have a copy of backup data from Prod to DR, thanks
This is the high level diagram, they must have a replicated/backup copy of data from prod to dr and can failback from dr to prod
