Replication over 20M link

Post by vastdavidson »

Every night we replicate 60+GB over the 20M link. There are times the backup window falls into the next working day causing the release of the snapshots in VMWare to take a longer time. So my question is this.

Is it possible for Veeam to grab the snapshot to a local storage device... then release the snapshot while still copying it over to the remote side. This way VMWare is done with the backup part of Veeam...

Make sense?

Steven, consider doing remote replication from local backups, should address your concern.

So I would need another VMware server at the primary site and licensed for Veeam. Back up to that...then back that up to the remote site?

Nope, just windows-based machine that can be used a backup repository. Then, you will be able to make replication jobs from those backups. Thanks.
