Veeam Backup & Replication

Hello experts Veeam Backup & Replication

The essence of the problem. There are 2 Repository: 1-fast, 2-slow.

For a night on the repository 1 saved copies of virtual machines

(Buckup, Reversed Incremental, Restore points=3).

At 7:00 begins "Backup Copy Job", which makes a copy of a copy of a night on the repository 2.

(Restore points to keep = 3, Monthly backup = 3 in 1 day of the month). Default

creates 1 Full copy + 2 Increment and 3 Full copies of the last three

months. Is it possible by regular means, or a script to create 3 full copies of 3

last days and 3 Full copies of the last three months using Veeam Backup

& Replication 9.0.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

It should be possible with the use of Sync-VBRBackupCopyJob coupled with -FullBackup switch. However, I'm wondering why it's necessary to store the latest three points as full backups. Is it dictated by corporate policy or something? Thanks.

Many thanks for the answer. Experiment concludes the possibility of using

the following script in the tab "Target->Advanced->Scripts":

-------------------------------------------------------------

cd "C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup"

.\Initialize-VeeamToolkit.ps1

Sync-VBRBackupCopyJob -Job "CopyFrom-Dc100" -FullBackup

-------------------------------------------------------------

The mandatory presence of a check in "Read the entire restore point from source

backup instead of synthesizing it from increments"

It seems works !
