If you lose one backup server it is able to catalog those backups from another server. And you have another server backing up another environment or another set of VM's. The one thing that I'm aware of though, is that when you're doing the backup, when you're scaling, you wind up with tears, because you have one server backing up a set of VM's, or an environment. It sounds like it can scale up the ying yang. So I don't know as far as the scalability goes. From what I've read, it sounds amazing, but from what I've done, I've never had to go into any great remote control, remote access or remote sites. You link it and you can move backups from one site to another and then recover them off that other site. That sounds like it's pretty straightforward. But I understand that with my license I can create remote backup servers, as well. So I don't have to have remote backup servers. My understanding is that I can create more, but everything is local.
We have an extra grade appliance and I have a bunch of CADA disks on a net app for just local storage. We have a data domain appliance that we rent space on that is offsite.
We have 200 employees and maybe 50 or 60 or 70 VM's, something like that. On the VMware side, the ability to set your retention policy within a job over multiple periods would be really nice if that was doable. That's where it is incomplete on the Nutanix side as well on the ESX. In our case, the Nutanix environment is incomplete with the enterprise manager recovery tools part of it. Retention periods being daily, weekly, monthly.Īs for what I would like to see in future releases, just the integration to other virtual environments. The retention periods are not consistent or not available for different retention periods within that job. It is called a father son, or grandfather, type backup structure.
It would be really nice if you could do it through a single command line or a single interface. And you don't want a daily to run on this day doing monthlies. It has to be a separate job. It gets clunky to manage the timeframes where you don't want a daily to run on this day and creating weeklies. It does not give you the ability to also set the terms for monthly and/or weekly backups. In terms of what could be improved, when creating a backup job with Veeam, you can create a daily backup, but it doesn't do it within that job.
