Auto backup copy job to USB drive

Post by mobilpc »

Hi,

i am using Veeam community edition, it is possible to setup second backup copy job to USB drive repository with these conditions:
1) start copy / update USB repository after USB drive pluged in
2) unmout usb drive when job is finished (so i can take it offsite or leave it there, no ransomware will have access, of course till server will restart or usb enable/disable in device manager)

Thanks

With the Community Edition you also have access to PowerShell module of Veeam Backup & Replication. Using it along with general Windows PowerShell it should be possible to start backup copy job sync, based on the certain Windows event (drive being plugged in). Thanks!

You might also want to check the PowerShell subforum, I vaguely remember something similar having been discussed there. But if you aren't lucky enough to find the actual script, ask there for assistance - people will be glad to help. Thanks!
