Create Recovery Media

Post by phule »

I have question about Manage Recovery Media.

At first time setup backup on Veeam Agent for Windows, it ask us create recovery media, but after period time, OS might be changed (drivers update, MS Patching, etc.) so I wonder if I need to recreate recovery media boot or just use iso on first time created that enough?

Even create Veeam recovery media on regular, Veeam support mention use powershell, but if I use Veeam Agent for Window standalone, so Veeam Powershell isn't worked in my case.

Thanks everyone for your time and advise

Best regards,
Phu

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

OS or data changes are no issue because that will be restored anyway. The only reason to create a new recovery media would be if you have hardware changes / firmware upgrades that would create issues with the old drivers on the recovery media. If you want, you can create a new recovery media at every point in time (find the wizard in the start menu).

Normally you only need it after upgrading VAW to a new version.

Best regards,
Hannes
