INTRODUCTION
With all the latest technologies and protection systems that exist today, many people tend to
forget that backup is still necessary in the modern day IT environment.
This document will provide you with all the steps necessary to test out Veeam
Backup & Replication 6.5 in a Proof of Concept environment and validate for yourself how easy it is
to protect your running virtual machines and to recover an entire virtual machine or parts of it.
Prerequisites
Before we can start, we need to make sure that we have the necessary prerequisites in our
environment. This part of the document will make sure that you have all the necessary hardware
and software prerequisites in advance.
Hardware
This Proof of Concept can be tested on any workstation or server with 500 GB of disk and 8 GB of
RAM. CPU requirements are not that important but the better the CPU the better the experience
will be.
Note
Please note that this document is intended to do a Proof of Concept only. Because of the low level
hardware requirements this can be run on many devices.
However, this has consequences to the speed of the backup and recovery jobs and also on the
responsiveness of the servers. If you want to see whether the responsiveness and speed are
adequate with Windows Server 2012 and Backup & Replication, you need to perform this POC on
hardware that matches your production environment.
This workstation or server needs to be a physical one. We will enable the hyper-v role on the server
and install all additional servers as virtual servers on top of the physical one. This means that the
workstation of server needs to have the capabilities to enable virtualization (see Appendix I.
Hypervisor Requirements).
Software
In addition to hardware, we also need software. All the software that we are going to use are
evaluation versions and can be simply downloaded:

ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS
Every environment will be different. Some of the configuration settings that are used in this
document might not match your environment or cannot be used for various reasons.
I will write out the settings here but you can change them to match your own environment. If that
is the case, then you need to make sure that you use your settings throughout the document.
Domain
Our domain is called lab.local and during this entire document we are going to use the
administrator account for all actions. In a production environment this is not the correct way of
doing this but since this document is written for a proof of concept it will save time in setting-up
everything.
Throughout this document we use the password P@ssw0rd everywhere. Both for the local
administrator accounts as the domain administrator account.
My setup looks like this:

After the installation, your server will need to restart. When the server has restarted, log on with
the local administrator account again.
Now we are going to create a network for our environment:
1.
2.
On the Create virtual switch screen, choose External and click Create Virtual Switch.
3.
On the Virtual Switch Properties screen, fill in the name Network and make sure that the
External network is selected and your network connection that is connected to the
Internet or to the router. Also, check if the Allow management operating system to
share this network adapter check box is selected and click OK.
Your first job is done. You have built yourself a workstation or server with Windows Server 2012 on
it and enabled the Hyper-V role. You have also created a network that will be used by your virtual
machines.
Now you can go to the next step and create your first two virtual machines running on Hyper-V.

virtual machine.
59 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
RECOVERING
Backing up a virtual machine is one thing. Recovering is another. Every backup software goal is not
to create a backup, but to be sure that it can do a recovery flawlessly. We are going to test out 2
features off the recovery.
Note
You will not be able to perform this exercise before you have completed your first successful
backup .
First feature is to go inside the virtual machine and recover some files and the second feature is to
recover the entire virtual machine.
First job is to log on to the SV01 server and delete the files under the sources directory. Now that
we made that mistake, it is time to recover these files as soon as possible.
Open the Backup & Replication console on your BR server and click the Restore icon.
2.
On the Restore Type screen, choose Guest files (Windows) and click Next.
60 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
3.
On the Virtual Machine screen, select the SV01 server and click Next.
In my case, I already have 3 restore points because the backup has ran for 3 days. This
could be different in your case.
4.
On the Restore Point screen, select the restore point that you want to recover. Click Next.
In my case, I choose the latest one because I am sure that the files are still on that server.
Click Next.
61 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
5.
On the Restore Reason screen, type in a reason for your restore and click Next.
6.
62 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
7.
The Backup Browser will appear. It will allow you to recover the specific files needed.
Right-click the Sources directory and choose Restore.
8.
Now you will see that the software is restoring the files to the server again.
9.
When the job is finished, you will see the results of the restore. Click Finish.
63 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
10. Now you can verify the SV01 server: the files should be back to the correct location.
This small procedure that you followed allowed you to recover some deleted files very fast. Note
that you did not have to restore the entire virtual machine to be able to recover the files.
Open Hyper-V Manager, right-click the SV01 server and select Shut Down.
2.
3.
When the machine has been shut down, right-click it again and select Delete.
64 | How to Test Out Backup & Replication 6.5 for Hyper-V | REV 1
4.
5.
Open File Explorer. Go to the location that holds the files of this virtual machine. Rightclick that folder and select Delete.
Now that our virtual machine has been deleted, it is time to recover it:
1.
2.
3.
On the Restore Type screen, choose Entire VM. For more information about the different
types of restore, read the Veeam Backup & Replication 6.5 User Guide, p. 164.
