The available backup methods include forward incremental-forever backup, forward incremental backup, and reverse incremental backup. Backup increments are created using the built-in changed block tracking (CBT) mechanism. Backups can be full (a full copy of VM image) or incremental (saving only the changed blocks of data since the last backup job run). It backs up VMs at the image-level using a hypervisor's snapshots to retrieve VM data. Veeam Backup & Replication operates both the virtualization layer as well manages physical machine backup. The software provides backup, restore and replication functionality for virtual machines, physical servers and workstations as well as cloud-based workload.
Veeam Backup & Replication is a proprietary backup app developed by Veeam for virtual environments built on VMware vSphere, Nutanix AHV, and Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisors. Recovering Oracle database using Veeam Explorer
