[Feature Request] Veeam Agent - seed-to-disk functionality

[DatatoSecure]

Other backup providers offer a seed-to-disk functionality. This is very useful in the case a client has lots of data to be backed up and the Internet connection speed does not permit to back up a server or workstation within a 7 day period.

See to disk also means we can protect the client’s data sooner.

Hi François,

Managed by backup server job provides mapping option. You can create a backup within one repository and then move these backup files to the main site and map them to your agent backup job.

Hi Dima,

I read about it before posting the Feature Request, as I can see Veeam's seeding is between Veeam Backup servers.
We are looking at bringing a hard drive to a client site for the first backup, then bringing the hard drive to our office or data centre.
Some other backup companies offers this functionality.
