    Veeam employee here. Fantastic tutorial you have here! It randomly came up in my feed and I decided I'd watch it to see if it was accurate or not. You were spot on about everything you covered.

    Good review on how to install it and how to restore! Surprising that this program is free. Cheers!

    Is there a benefit in using Veeam software to restore a system via a bootable drive versus using Window's version of it? In other words, if I have a windows image backup and a separate bootable recovery USB, then that should do the same job as the Bare Metal restore?

    • @RichardTech
      @RichardTech  2 роки тому +1

      If you already have an image to restore, the Veram restore probably doesn’t offer a benefit aside from also working as an incremental backup at the same time for file restoration in Windows. I did notice that the Veeam USB has their bare metal as well as Windows image recovery so it seems that they have also considered this.

    Am I restricted to 1 backup job with the free edition, or can I do a backup without creating a backup job?

    Hey does this also back up every file on my windows? And if I want to restore the pc do I need the new pc to have the same hardware configuration as my current one for the backup to work?

  • @jc-mt8ot

    will the recovery media allow you to connect to one drive if you have your backups stored there or will you need to find a way to copy it locally first before attempting a boot media restore?

    • @RichardTech
      @RichardTech  5 місяців тому

      Yes, you can manually specify the backup location on the restore if it is not automatically detected. All you need to do is select Browse on the screen at 6:49 to do that.

      @@RichardTech Nice i see that now. Will lt allow for connection and restore from an Azure blob container? The setting itself doesnt specifically state azure or public cloud.

    could this agent be used to create a golden image for deployment on my home systems?

      @RichardTech  Рік тому

      I don’t see why not! Windows is pretty good with hardware changes these days, so I imagine it could be applied to different hardware.

    how i can install on usb the veeam and make backup to another hdd ?

  • @ChasWalton
    @ChasWalton 11 місяців тому

    I have a question: what kind of media do you need for a VeeAM backup? I bought a Samsung SSD, but I get the error message that this has an exFAT file system that isn't supported.

    • @RichardTech
      @RichardTech  11 місяців тому +1

      I believe Veeam no longer supports exFAT formatted drives, so you’ll need to format the drive as NTFS for Windows and it should work 😊

    • @ChasWalton
      @ChasWalton 11 місяців тому

      Thanks Richard. Any chance you have a video on how to to that?

    • @RichardTech
      @RichardTech  11 місяців тому +1

      Not exactly, I have a video showing you how to format as exFAT - but the only thing you would need to change is select NTFS instead of exFAT when formatting the drive. *Please note that formatting the drive will delete everything currently on it.*
      Please find the video here, hope it helps. ua-cam.com/video/EcaPm-JfBbs/v-deo.html

      Brilliant. That makes you a near-genius. There's nothing on that SSD because I've just bought it.

    Don't bother with this program. It only gives me errors when I try to backup my computer. "Error: The semaphore timeout period has expired. Asynchronous read operation failed Failed to upload disk. Agent failed to process method {DataTransfer.SyncDisk}. Exception from server: The semaphore timeout period has expired. Asynchronous read operation failed Unable to retrieve next block transmission command. Number of already processed blocks: [70022]. Failed to download disk."

      I'm assuming that by now you have thrown away your old computer and bought a better one that will work.

      Constructive. Veeam is worth ~$5billion USD, do you think they got there by making software that doesn't work at all?
