Importing and Restoring File Share Backup

Post by StrazIT »

I have a file share backup running nightly, moving old versions to an S3 object storage. The path is listed as AmazonS3://awsbucket/veeam/store/BackupRepoName
On my backup Veeam server in AWS I am trying to add the backup repository to import the backups and recover the files. When I go to add the backup repository the folder "store" does not show up in my list of folders.
How can I import this file level share backup?

Hello! AFAIK there are no folders in S3 object storage in principle, they are emulated using object names. So, you need to register AmazonS3://awsbucket/veeam path as object storage repository in your AWS VBR (in other words, the same path that you have specified for this object storage repository on your on-prem backup server), as opposed to selecting some deeper "path". Thanks!
