Reconfiguring VMs backup job on a new Hyper-V host

Post by neok »

Hello everyone.
I am using Veeam B&R 11.
I am currently doing VM backups inside a standalone Hyper-V server.
For maintenance purposes I am going to move the VMs to another Hyper-V host.
My question is, how should I proceed in reconfiguring the backup jobs when I move the VMs to the new Hyper-V server host ?

Thank you very much
Best regards.

Hi Gabriel

Veeam B&R will see the VMs as new machines. You have to re-add the VMs to the backup jobs and active full backups are required.
If you have a cluster or SCVMM to manage the Hyper-V Host, an active full backup would not be required.

Thanks
