Permanent Virtual Lab

[RumataRus]

Hello!
Is it possible to have permanent Virtual Lab for testing purposes?
What we need to do that?

[Vitaliy S.]

Not sure, I got your question. Could you please clarify what do you want to achieve?

[RumataRus]

I want to create Virtual Lab not only for verification integrity of backups but for some test actions on VMs in isolated network, e.g., apply patches for DCs, application servers etc.

[Vitaliy S.]

This is exactly what On-Demand sandbox is capable of, please take a look at our F.A.Q. section for further reading: On-Demand Sandbox. Thanks!

[RumataRus]

ОК, thank You!

Concerning the on-demand sandbox, we are testing an upgrade to our ERP software and was hoping to use this feature. Testing will likely take a couple of days. However, the VMs in the test environment shut down every night as the backup window begins. Is there a way around this outside of disabling backup jobs?

You could deploy another Veeam Backup installation, import required backups into it, and use the virtual lab from this install instead.

I will give that a try. Thanks.
