Restoring backup to another server

Post by Mikhail_tl »

Hello!

I'm just starting to work with Veeam B&R and have some questions. I read manual but can't find the answers.

I have 3 Hyper-V server. I installed Veeam B&R on all servers and created backup jobs. All backups are stored in one shared folder (SMB). All working fine but I can't understand how to restore VM from one server to another. For example, there are 2 hv-servers - HV-1 with VM-1 and HV-2 with VM-2. Storage for backups - \\NAS\VM_backup. HV-2 is out of order but I have backup of VM-2 on \\NAS\VM_backup. What should I do on the HV-1 to restore VM-2 on HV-1?

I'll be very grateful for any advice.

You need to open the Veeam B&R console, add the HV1 host there, add the repository where the required backup is stored, rescan it and perfrom the restore. And you're not using the very same location for backups made by both Veeam B&R instances, right? It wouldn't be the best practice - at least, specify different folders.
