Integration with Essentials bundle

Post by bbibber »

A marketing question... Will it be possible to backup (with the non free product) to backup repositories if you use the Essentials bundles? If so, will there be limitations?

Currently Veeam Endpoint is free and you can backup to Veeam backup repositories (doesn't matter if Veeam B&R is part of Essentials bundle or not) with our latest RC build.

Thanks for the quick answer Vitaliy.

I misinterpreted
Veeam Backup & Replication™ integration and backup repository support are NOT included in this beta
Can't wait to try this :-)

Actually you did not - this statement relates to the original beta build, and we've just released the new one.

Small correction, you need to be using any paid edition of Veeam Backup & Replication for this functionality.
Since Veeam Backup Free Edition simply does not have backup repositories, it cannot be used as a target.

Hi Anton

Thanks for the explanation.

We're in the process of buying an Essentials bundle right now. The bundle imposes some other limitations (cores, # of ESXi hosts, ...).
That's why I was asking.

I falsely assumed the free Endpoint product wouldn't be able to connect to backup repositories or integrate with Veeam Backup & Replication.
You see a lot of "free" products lacking the most interesting features. Nice to see this is not the case here :-)
it's a nice gesture: every company has some workstations they want to backup...

Veeam Essentials bundle is only limited by the number of sockets (6 max), no restrictions on the hosts and cores number. Thanks!
