VEEAMZIP exclude/include specific drives

Post by great_vc »

Hi,

I have used veeamzip to backup and keep forever VMs for legal reasons perhaps as i think that is the purpose of it.

But there are cases that i want in a VM with veeamzip to include or exclude specific drives. Is that possible ?

Hello,
VeeamZip backs up the whole VM. No options for including / excluding disks.

As alternative, you could create a temporary job and delete the job afterwards.

Best regards,
Hannes

I figured as much.

As a "keep forever" option (like the 30 years that we used in previous backup software) what options should i select on the policy to accomplish that?
It is a storage backup NOT a tape backup.

1 restore point would be infinite. "number of restore points" is independent from any time.
