Replicated Repositories, Which Is Which During Restore?

Post by rreed » 1 person likes this post

Afternoon, team. v9, dedupe devices (Dell DR4100's) replicated, we have both source/destination setup in Veeam, actively backing up to "source" dedupe device. W/ the destination device also a repository, when it scans, it finds the replicated backup files, which is of course fine. However, we're having to restore a VM (Full VM Restore), when I select my restore point, it shows up twice, identically. Presumably one is the replicated one, that's in our other data center, from which I DO NOT want to pull. I need to make sure I'm pulling from my local repository.

Nowhere in the VM Restore stats does it tell me from where it's pulling. I had to go to my selected proxies and use Resource Manager to discern that luckily I selected the correct repository (hey, it was a 50/50 shot). Can we get the GUI updated to show exactly from where a restore is pulling please?

Any chance this info is already logged in a tooltip? If not, we will log the enhancement request.

I hovered all over the place, nothing ever showed up. Having it plainly displayed (full path) would be best if we could please.
