DXi Veeam Installation
Overview
This document provides instructions for installing and configuring a Veeam™ Linux Repository on Quantum DXi V5000 systems.
Note: A license is not required to install Veeam on the Quantum DXi V5000.
Veeam
The Veeam feature on the DXi allows the system to perform backup and replication with Veeam software on VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V virtual environments.
The Veeam Agent runs in the DXi process space with direct access to DXi resources, providing better performance than Veeam running against a DXi NAS share as a shared folder.
The simplified block diagram below shows the data flow in a typical Veeam installation. Management communication is omitted for simplicity. The VMs on the Customer Network are identified by the Veeam Backup Server. The backups can be full or incremental using the Veeam Agent changed block tracking. At the scheduled backup, the Veeam Agent works with the Veeam Backup Server to facilitate the data movement from the backup sources to the DXi. The backup data is sent by the Veeam Agent to the NFS Share for deduplication and storage in the Blockpool.
Preparing for the Installation
Note: Please review the Veeam Backup and Replication Best Practices Guide, downloadable from the Best Practices page for your DXi product.
Before you begin the Veeam installation, make the following preparations:
