Backup to old Chain

Post by emad »

Hello,
I have setup a fresh copy of windows on a client PC, after installing a VEEAM agent on it, i want to backup to the same old backup folder unless creating a new one .
I backup to VEEAM repository on a VEEAM server.
Thanks in advance

Hello emad,

To continue previously created backup chain, you need to point Veeam agent to the same location/repository. When backup job kicks in it should automatically detect the backup chain an continue it.

Hello Dima,
Thanks for the reply. I already did this pointing to the same backup repository, but it creates a new folder with the same name of the client's machine_1. So, I have to delete the old one after while to save storage.
