Are you able to backup a windows server?

[cas_three]

I just added a windows server under Managed Servers, but I don't see how to back it up?

Are there instructions somewhere?

Thank you

Is is a VM?

[cas_three]

No it is not, just a standlone Windows 2008 R2 server. does Veeam not allow for standalone server backups? Just vm's?

I am backing up all of our vm's with no problems through Veeam.

[kjc3303]

Veeam can only backup VM's. The add windows server under managed servers is for adding windows servers as proxies and repositories

Thats right. Veeam is a backup solution for VMs only. The only way to "backup" a physical server is with a File Copy job. But it's just a simple file copy operation. No dedupe, no compression.
