bast practive for my infrastrucutre : Off-Host Backup Proxy?

Post by Julien3110 »

Hye,

In our case, we have a main site (say A) with all our VMWare VM and one Veeam Server for backup.
All is fine in A site.

Now we have a small B site, with one HyperV Server hosting 2 VMs. We want to backup this 2 VMs to a Synology NAS located in the B site and, additionaly, mirror this backup from the NAS to the A site.
The difficulty in our case is the really slow link betwwen A and B.

What would be the best practice ?

Hey Julien and welcome to the community!

I'd recommend you to use the backup copy job mapping. That would allow you significantly reduce the amount of traffic through your slow connection.
You should create a seed and put it in the target repository (main site A) as a preliminary action before mapping.
Also, take a look at WAN Accelerators it's a useful feature for the slow WAN connection, but requires more expensive license to use. Thanks!
