Backup to changing NAS-System

Post by dfehse »

Hi,

I have to following Problem / question: VMs running on ESX-Server (Standalone, only physical Server in the environement) so I have no Chance to plug in a Tape or RDX-Device (not supported by VMWare). I consider to take 4 NAS Devices (for every week of the month one) and Change them like RDX or Tapes. But the Problem is the Networkpath of this devices are all different. How can I set up Jobs then? Not possible .. only if NAS will be Change daily. So I thought to create DFS-Path. But will this works b'c there will be allways missing some incrmental files.

Any ideas to solve that with Veeam?

Thx for any tipp or hint

If you'dlike to use RDX as I understood,you can connect the usb version to the ESXi server, and use usb pass-thorugh to publish the device to the Veeam virtual machine.
Have a look at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1022290, depending on the configuration you can also leverage usb 3.0 thus having great speed. You can use the same solution also for tapes probably.

There will be several limitations with directly attached devices, though. Thanks.
