The other values are 8MB for the 16TB+ option, 512KB for LAN target and 256KB for the WAN target. Again, as explained in the whitepaper, thanks to compression these values are reduced to half when the block lands into the repository.
When the backup copy job starts, Veeam Backup & Replication checks the source backup repository: if a new restore point has been added to the primary backup chain, Veeam Backup & Replication automatically copies it to the target backup repository.So, we can assume the default block size written in the repository is going to be 512KB. You can set up the job to run daily, monthly or periodically at the specified time, specify automatic job retry settings and specify the backup copy window to allow the job to copy restore points during specific time periods only. In the periodic copy mode, the backup copy job runs according to the schedule that you specify in the backup copy job settings.
You can specify the backup copy window to allow the job to copy restore points during specific time periods only. After that, the backup copy job stops until a new restore point appears on the source backup repository. In the immediate copy mode, once a new restore point has been added to the primary backup chain, the backup copy job immediately copies it to the target backup repository.The backup copy process differs depending on the backup copy mode: immediate copy or periodic copy. The backup copy job supports the GFS retention scheme, allowing you to design a long-term archiving plan. When you create a backup copy job, you define what backup file you want to copy, the target repository for storing the copy, retention policy and other settings for the copying process. The backup chain produced on the target backup repository is forever-incremental: the first file in the chain is a full backup while all subsequent restore points are incremental. Instead, Veeam Backup & Replication retrieves data blocks necessary to create a restore point as of the latest point in time and copies this data to the cloud repository. Copied backup files have the same format as those created by backup jobs, and you can use any data recovery option for them.ĭuring the backup copying process, Veeam Backup & Replication does not simply copy a backup file from one backup repository to another. For example, you can configure a backup job to create a VM backup on the local backup repository, and use the backup copy job to copy the created VM backup from the local backup repository to the cloud repository. Backup copy jobs allow you to create several instances of the same backup file in different locations, onsite or offsite. To follow the 3–2–1 backup best practice, you can configure a backup copy job and target it at the cloud repository.
