When you perform guest OS file restore, Veeam Backup & Replication provides the following options for mounting VM disks from the backup or replica:

• Mounting disks to a helper host. As a helper host, you can select the target host where you want to restore files from the backup or any other Linux server. We recommend you to specify the same server to which you want to restore the files. This will improve the performance.
• Mounting disks to a helper appliance. The helper appliance is a helper VM running a stripped down Linux kernel that has minimal set of components. The appliance is quite small — around 50 MB. It requires 2048 MB RAM and 2 CPU.

 

Helper appliance and Helper Host.

Let’s knock 2 options out from the start → a. and c. as they have nothing to do mounting needs of Veeam to restore guest files from Linux VMs. That leaves us 3 options for 2 answers needing selected. And the answers are d. Helper appliance and e. Helper host. For more info on performing restore of Linux guest files, see link below:

i was initially thinking b & d bcz mount server is always close to repo iLHR server where the disks are mounted (by default it’s the VBR server) but it’s better to have a mount server. But it’s helper appl and helper host!. Thx for this question
