Cloud Connect Tape Repository

[Bill.Haines]

I am looking for information about using tape with Cloud Connect. I have been told this functionality is not available at this time. Looking to find out if this option will be available at anytime or if it is being worked on. I would like to see this option available as I have several clients that use Cloud Connect and would like a Monthly and Yearly tape backup.

Hi Bill,

Are you referring to this functionality (search for vCloud Director Cloud Connect Enhancements paragraph)?

P.S. Are you a VCSP? If so, please apply for the VCSP forum, where there are some discussions about this feature. To apply for the VCSP forum, go into the User Control Panel of this forum, select User Groups in the tabs, select "Veeam Cloud Service Provider” and finally the “Join selected” option. As soon as your email address is verified to be part of the Service Provider domain, your application will be approved.

Thanks!

Hello StoneFritz.

This feature is planned but I can provide you the ETA. May I ask you to share your particular use case? Thank you in advance.

I've also written it to the Veeam Cloud & Service Providers Forum:

Our cloud connect customers wish to write their transferred backup to tape.
This feature was announced to me with Veeam 10 for early 2018.
Unfortunately, this feature does not exist today.
Do you have any information about it?
I think with this feature we will be able to win many customers for Cloud Connect.
