VBR + DataDomain Immuability + Mtree Replication

Post by Stabz »

Hello,

I understand that Veeam supports immutability on Dell Data Domain deduplication storage appliances.

Here is my current setup:

Backup job targeting a ReFS repository
Backup copy job to a primary Data Domain with immutability enabled
MTree replication to a secondary Data Domain not managed by Veeam
My question is: will the data replicated to the secondary Data Domain also be immutable?

The Data Domain OS version is 8.3.

Thank you in advance for your insights.

I think this depends on DataDomain capabilities and configuration. The mtree replication is executed from within the data domain, so it is a question for them.

I confirm it works !

You have to apply a setting during the replication pair creation.
You have to enable : Propagate DD retention Lock
