IBM Spectrum Virtualize / Storwize

Veeam leverages IBM FlashCopy based Backups to achieve:

• Agentless Application Aware Backup (AD/Exchange/SharePoint/SQL/Oracle/…)

• Minimizes the typical VMware backup API performance impact on production VMs during backup

• Improves RTO and RPO times with technologies like Instant VM Recovery and Application Restore out of Snapshots or Backups

• More than doubles the possible backup speed compared with standard VMware API backups and more than 10x the speed of other storage

snapshots backup solutions through usage of VMware Change Block Tracking with them

Veeam leverages IBM FlashCopy based Backups to achieve:

• Agentless Application Aware Snapshot creation (AD/Exchange/SharePoint/SQL/Oracle/…)

• Improves RPO time as customers can create additional snapshot based restore points on top of traditional backups.

• High frequent Crash Consistent Snapshots together with application restore support out of them, improves RPO times even further.

FlashCopies


Veeam can restore VMs (Instant VM Recovery) / Guest Files / Application Items and Databases out of IBM FlashCopies

• Works with FlashCopies that were created by Veeam, IBM or any 3rd Party software. VMs need to be on VMDK base.

• Easy to use interface. New Snapshots are automatically detected and restores can be started.

• Veeam Backup Free Edition provide VM and Guest File Restore. Application Items and DBs can be exported.

• Veeam Backup & Replication Enterprise Edition provide additional Application Item and DB restore to original place.

FlashCopies


Veeam can provide automated restore verification and on-demand Labs for VMs from IBM FlashCopies

• VMs can be started on demand into a Sandbox environment to test applications, scripts, upgrades, development,…

• Most actual FlashCopy can be used to schedule automated restore tests. It will test VM boot, Network connection and Application start.

• Works with FlashCopies that were created by Veeam, IBM or any 3rd Party software. VMs need to be on VMDK base.

• Reports of these automated restore tests can be sent by mail. (Enhanced Report in Veeam Availability Suite)..
