I would like to backup the nodes (operating system part) of a 4 node scale-out-fileserver for bare-metal recovery.
My environment is build with Hyper-V Cluster and scale-out-fileserver. The VMs are backuped as normal hyper-v backup. Runs fine btw.
In case of a desaster I would like to be able to restore the physical clusternodes as fast as possible. Therefore I deployed the Veeam Agent as described in KB2463 (https://www.veeam.com/kb2463). Now I want to add a Backupjob for the Nodes.
Theoreticaly all I need to do is adding the scale-out-fileserver to a backupjob (KB2463: Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV) are skipped automatically during the backup.) and I can recover from a hardware failure for the individual nodes.
The storage for the VMs will not be backuped as these are Cluster Shared Volumes, right?
I am asking this as the CSVs are many volumes with a huge amount of Terabytes and that would kill my repositroy.
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards,
Torsten
