To archive backups, first add an archive repository and then enable backup archiving in a backup policy. We recommend you to archive data if it is rarely accessed or you want to reduce data-at-rest costs and to save space in the high availability standard backup repository. For more information on how to retrieve data, see Retrieving Data from Archive. To restore data from an archive, you first need to retrieve data from it. However, restoring from an archived backup is longer and more expensive than restoring from a backup stored in a standard backup repository. Archive repository allows you to archive image-level backups of EC2 instances, that is, to store backups for long periods of time at lower costs. For more information on how to create a policy, see Creating EC2 Backup Policies in the Veeam Backup for AWS User Guide.Īn archive repository is a folder in an Amazon S3 bucket with the S3 Glacier or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage class assigned. To store backups in a standard backup repository, first add it to the infrastructure and then enable image-level backups in a backup policy. We recommend you to store frequently accessed backups in this repository. AWS Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication uses this repository to store image-level backups of EC2 instances and additional copies of Amazon VPC configuration backups. The Win10 machine was working because it already had the credentials entered into Windows Credential Manager.An S3 backup repository is a folder in an Amazon S3 bucket with a specific storage class assigned.ĪWS Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication supports the following types of S3 backup repositories:Ī standard backup repository is a folder in an Amazon S3 bucket with the S3 Standard storage class assigned. Only then the new job wizard would correctly be able to map the existing backups.

Note that some Samba configurations like “map to guest” might lead to partial read access on a share depending on server file and folder permissions and acls, when you don’t preload the credentials into windows Credential Manager.

Enter the same credentials for the NAS identical to those needed by agent. Before starting the agent new job wizard, the following procedure must be done first: Click on windows search menu, type “credential” to open Credential Manager settings app, click “Windows credentials”, click “Add a windows credential”. When you login into a newly created windows profile, veeam credentials on agent alone are not sufficient for accessing the network share.

Although the credentials themselves were not the issue, however I have managed to isolate the scenario that triggers the behaviour:
