Restoring to Amazon EC2 with Proxy Appliance
Veeam Backup & Replication do below action:
- Creates a proxy appliance(Linux-based) in Amazon EC2. (Veeam -ssh-> proxy appliance)
- For every disk of a backed-up machine, it creates an empty EBS volume in Amazon EC2.
- hot-adds empty disks to the proxy appliance and restores backed-up data to the EBS volumes.
- It creates a target instance in Amazon EC2.
- detaches the EBS volumes from the proxy appliance and attaches them to the target instance.
- After the restore process is complete, removes the proxy appliance from Amazon EC2.
好處: 不用 S3 空間及不用 Import
