Veeam Agent for Windows - Initial Full Backup

[Sebastian89]

Hello,

we want to backup 2 physical windows servers (with SQL) in a remote office with Veeam Agent for Windows (VUL license will be purchased after testing). In the main office we are running Veeam B&R v11 for our VMware vSphere Cluster including a backup to tape. We want to store the backups from the remote office in the B&R server and transfer the backup also to tape.

The internet connection between the remote and the main office is very poor and the 2 servers have a size of 2TB.

Is there any way to backup the first full backup from the Veeam agent on a USB-device, transfer it offline to our B&R server in the repository, map the restore point to the job and then go on with incremental backups or synthetic fulls?

Thank you for your suggestions.

Hi Sebastian

Veeam Agent jobs managed by VBR Server comply with How to Move Veeam Backup & Replication Backup Files KB article.
