Veeam Version at DR Site

Post by KiwiJJ »

Hi,
I have just upgraded our production backup server to Veeam 7. At our DR site we have a Windows 7 32 bit PC that runs Veeam 6.5 to be able to restore if the DR site is required.

Will the 6.5 version at the DR site be able to restore VM's backed up with version 7 ? or will I have to buy a 64 bit machine and run version 7

thanks,

John

You can always use v7 extract.exe utility (or GUI version of it) to restore your VMs from backups without using Veeam backup console. Thanks!
