FAQs

Frequently asked questions when archiving backups to cloud

Can I restore VMs directly with the backup archive data?

No. You need to create an archive restore job to restore the archive data to onsite storage first, then use the restored data to restore VMs.

Can I archive my file backups and database backups?

The answer is NO. Backup Archive feature can currently be used to only archive VM backups on Vinchin Backup & Recovery v6.5 and later versions.

Why I only got one full restore point of my VM backups after achiving? What happened to the incremental restore points?

Each backup archive job session will only send a latest version of full backup to the cloud object storage. If the lastest backup is incremental, Vinchin Backup & Recovery will transfer necessary data blocks of the backup chain to the cloud object storage to form a latest full restore point.

What are the differences between backup copy and backup archive?

Backup copy feature will make an exactly the same copy of your backups (VM, file and database backups) to another storage or to another location for disaster recovery, while backup archive only sends a latest full restore point (1 full restore point per job session) to the cloud object storage.
