Feature Request - Replication operations for VCD tenant users using SSBP

Post by miyu.masuda »

I would like to allow VCD tenant users to perform replication operations using SSBP (Veeam Plug-in for VCD).
Are there any plans to add this functionality to EM?

We are cloud service provider.
Clients using Veeam console (= SSBP) with VCD via plugin should be able to perform replication operations themselves.

Hello @miyu.masuda

Can you provide some more information / use cases for this?

Thanks for the reply.

We provide the environment where customers login SSBP as VCD user and perform backup and restore themselves.
Since there are many requests from VCD tenant users to perform replication operations themselves, we are wondering if it is possible to perform replication as well as backup/restore via SSBP.
While replication of VCD environment is currently possible with VBR, we're aware that it is not possible to use it in the way described above, which is why I have submitted this thread.

Hi Miyu,

Do you want tenants to configure replication jobs themselves or are you more focused on self-service disaster recovery options like executing failovers?

Thanks!

Hello, Thanks for your reply.
It is best to be able to do both, but if we're to focus on one or the other, it would be self-service disaster recovery options.

Understood, thank you for providing additional information. We do have plans for incorporating this request in the next major release. However, at this moment we are unable to share feature specific details or provide an estimated release date. Thanks!

Thanks for the infomation.
I am looking forward to seeing the feature added.

By the way, are there any products other than EM that can enable VCD tenant users to use the disaster recovery options? (or could make it happen)
For example, Veeam Service Provider Console.
