Integration with Storage Snapshots : Vendor Roadmap

[henrik.malmros]

Is there och will there be any support for storage integration av HPE MSA or NetApp E-series?

[cerberus]

Are there any updates to weather storage integration with Dell Compellent is on the road map somewhere? This was asked earlier on in this thread but I don't think there was ever a definitive answer.

[Mike Resseler]

Hi Cerberus,

I can't give any ETA or even update whether Dell compellent is on the roadmap or not. Since update 3 of Veeam B&R 9.5 we have an universal storage API that will help us significantly in adding storage vendors to the solution. However, this will require effort from both the storage vendor and Veeam (QC testing in particular). We already announced a few vendors based on that new API. But as said, at this moment no ETA or update on any other vendor.

Cheers
Mike

Is there any plans for an ability to restore directly from 3Par snapshots, when using Hyper-V? Was speaking to HPE technical yesterday about a new 3par and they were surprised that this was only possible in VMWare with Veeam.

Hi Stephen I don't believe there are any plans to provide storage integrations for Hyper-V environments.

Was speaking to HPE technical yesterday about a new 3par and they were surprised that this was only possible in VMWare with Veeam.

The storage integration has been discussed on Hyper-V subforums as well (just one example). Basically, you don't need that as the platform supports it natively. Thanks.

Note that thread discusses the ability to backup from 3par snapshots, which I currently do in Hyper-v. I'm talking about restoring directly from 3par snapshots with veeam, which is currently VMWare only.

Now it has been almost a year since I posted about Veeam playing favorites with Storage Vendors and have been awaiting new's about adding Tegile to the APL list. Still no News how much money to they have to pay to get on the API list I guess this is how the game is played. So is there any news on this?

[MichaelCade]

John, with the new universal storage API it will give any storage vendor the ability to develop against those APIs to bring support of this feature. The list is controlled by our alliances team.

As you can see from this thread alone there are a large number of storage vendors with + customers looking for integration.

+1 for Dell Compellent integration, too!

When will the intregration with Solidfire be implemented or available?

Hi Dries, we do not share our integration roadmap, so we cannot give an ETA for any particular storage before the integration is officially announced.

[chjones]

+1 (or +1,000,000) for SolidFire snapshot integration!!!!!!

[foggy]

I am happy to announce availability of the first plug-in for Veeam B&R developed by the storage vendor based on our new Universal Storage API.

Infinidat Plug-In for Veeam Backup & Replication is available for download immediately, bringing all the benefits of Veeam storage snapshot integration to Infinidat customers.

More to come soon!
