Cloud Replica size

Post by Vella »

Hi, I'm a newbie on Veeam, someone can help me to understand how much space on cloud my replicas will take?

My job create a replica on cloud every day with a retention of 7 (a week), how can I calculate how much space I need?

I see the dimensions of the 7 differential replicas on Veeam but where is it the initial full VM?

If I restore a replica it should take the differential and apply it to some sort of a mother VM, right?

Thanks and sorry for confusion

Hi Bruno,

This simulator might be helpful, just select VMware replica in the "Quick Presets" drop down list.

Replication restore points chain is literally a chain of VMware snapshots, please refer to this section on our help center for more information. During failover VM is reverted to the corresponding snapshot in the replica chain, the workflow is described in details on this page.

Thanks!
