The additional information that is needed to define the implementation process later is how much backup data is stored on the old hardware. This information is important for designing and sizing the migration strategy and timeline for moving the backups from the old hardware to the new hardware. For example, you can use the amount of backup data to estimate how long it will take to copy or move the backups to the new storage devices. You can also use the amount of backup data to determine whether you need to use compression, deduplication, or WAN acceleration to optimize the migration traffic.

The information that is missing from discovery is what the available bandwidth is between Fresno and Carson City. This information is important for designing and sizing the backup copy jobs that need to run daily between the two sites. The available bandwidth can affect the backup copy performance, duration, and size. For example, you can use the available bandwidth to estimate how much data can be transferred between the sites within the backup copy window. You can also use theavailable bandwidth to determine whether you need to use compression, deduplication, or WAN acceleration to optimize the backup copy traffic.

The component that can help meet the requirement of alternative decryption capabilities on encrypted backups in the event of lost passwords is Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager is a web-based interface that allows centralized management of multiple Veeam backup servers. It also provides a password loss protection feature that enables authorized users to restore encrypted backups without entering passwords if they forget or lose them. This feature requires enabling password loss protection in Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager settings and assigning a security officer role to a user who can approve password recovery requests.

The best way to accomplish the recoverability testing of backup files for gold tier virtual machines to meet the customer’s requirements is to create a virtual lab in the customer’s environment, and then use SureBackup jobs to verify backups. A virtual lab is an isolated environment where you can run your backups or replicas without affecting the production environment. A SureBackup job is a process that allows you to automatically verify the recoverability of your backups by running them in a virtual lab. By using these features, you can ensure that your backups are consistent, functional, and compliant with SLAs and regulations.

The recommended method to replicate VMware virtual machines with a less than five-minute RPO is Veeam Continuous Data Protection (CDP). CDP is a feature that allows near-continuous replication of VMware virtual machines to a secondary site or cluster with minimal data loss and downtime. CDP uses VMware vSphere APIs for I/O Filtering (VAIO) to capture every write operation from the source VMs and send them to the target VMs in near real-time. CDP can achieve RPOs as low as seconds and enable fast failover and failback in case of a disaster.
