backup weekly backup only to Azure blob

Post by bickyz »

Hi,
We have 4 x backup jobs that will backup VMs to the local repository (disk attached to the Veeam server).
These jobs runs once a day. Each job keeps 7 restore points.
I have added SOBR and changed backup jobs to back it to Azure blob, however this seems to backing up daily backup to Azure.
How do I setup Veeam to backup only the weekly backup to the Azure?
I am not looking to backup daily data to Azure.

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.

Hi bickyz,

When using Scale-out Backup Repositories (SOBR) and Capacity Tier, the Data Transfer process is an automated one; Capacity Tier is an extension of Performance Tier, so the idea is to have automated copies and tiering of the data in the SOBR.

Easiest way is to add a new Azure Blob Storage Repository and just do direct Backups or Backup Copies to this repository separately from your main job with a limited schedule.
