Instant Recovery on 2+TB Fileserver VM

Post by chadtandy »

Hi all, quick question, will Veeam Instant Recovery work for a VM that is over 2TB? It is currently spread out across 3 LUNs in production, just wasn't sure if Veeam was able to present itself potentially as multiple volumes to VMWare in the event of an instant recovery. Any one tried this? Reason I'm asking is that we have a large VM fileserver that we may need to do this on and I was unable to find any confirmation that anyone has done and Instant Recovery on such a large VM.

The largest I have personally done is 1.8TB but it should work.

hi there,

i can tell you that this definitely works.

we have used instant recovery on Windows Server 2008 R2 file servers with 6tb in production.

I have actually used a Windows Server 2008 R2 file server with 24tb in testing.

Cheers,
Matthew
