replicas using a windows agent
Using Veeam community edition and using free vmware hypervisor 7 can I do replicas using a windows agent or is there an alternative way?

Re: replicas using a windows agent
Hello Mason
Welcome to the forum.
Our Replica jobs operate at the hypervisor level, utilizing VM snapshots. Your VMware host needs to be licensed to enable the use of a VM replica job.
A workaround with the Veeam Agent involves doing backups and using instant recovery:
- Backup: Create backups with Veeam Agent
- Recovery: Use Instant Recovery to VMware to recover an agent backup as a VM. With Instant Recovery, your can start an agent backup as a VM directly from the backup storage.
Best,
Fabian
