DR Testing Job

Post by Novell2 »

Hello, I want to replicate some VMs in vCenter with Veeam (ABR11) to an independent esxi host and create update tests in this independent site. I created Veeam shurebackup with the associated proxy, which works fine. With surebackup, the replicated VM is shut down again after the test. How can I create a job for update testing where the VM runs until the updates are complete? Thank you very much for your help!
Stay healthy!
Best regards Novell2

Hi Novell2

You can put your replicas you need to test an upgrade in a application group.
In the Surebackup Job, choose Keep the application group running after the job completes.

Veeam won‘t power down the replicas from the application group this way. You can test your upgrade.
