Hi, everyone! I have a quick question about coypjob intervals. If I have my copyjob set to 1 day starting at 4am, does that mean that the copy starts at 4am and runs until 4am the next day and then just starts over? I am seeing some warnings about things not being copied over in the copy interval. I’m a little confused on how this works. How can I make the copy interval longer?

Hello everyone, I need to restore “incremental backup” to another “new server” on the network.I have “export disk” to VHD from backup the “old server” and attach this disk to “new server”.In this moment I need to restore “incremental backup” to “new server”. Is this possible? Thank you

Hi All - Hope well.I was hoping some one could shed some light on this. It seams when I replicate VM’s from our production server to the DR server, hyper V also makes a snap shot.What is the correct way to start the replicas? I imagine just for the replication job to stop and then start the VM’s normally on Hyper V without using Hyper V snapshots?What is the correct procedure? - I would also like to use the fail-back option so I dont want to hyperV snap shots to upset the process. Please find the image attached. Thanks all! 

I have a server with Direct attached storage utilized as a repository server. We have 3 partitions that are each configured as a repository in Veeam. We have combined all 3 into a SOBR. For the max concurrent tasks, do I need to divide the total concurrent tasks by the number of repositories since they each could be utilized at the same time.Hard Numbers: I have 16 concurrent tasks max due to Ram limitations on my Repository server. With the 3 repositories, do I configure each to have 5 max concurrent tasks or can i configure all 3 to have 16?Explanation on the reason for the solution would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
