Hi,
currently I'm running a VMware ESXi (single server) with Veeam VM, backup with forward incremental to a Qnap. The Backupdatastore on Qnap get synced daily to an Oracle S3 Storage.
Once a month Veeam is running a full backup on each job, afterwards the forward incremental continues.
On Oracle two rules exist:
1. after 24h of last write the files get migrated by Oracle from S3 to Archive Storage
2. the S3 Archive has a retension of 91 days (to have minimum retension time)
All restores was till now possible from local Qnap.
In case of disaster, after having organized some hardware.
1. a restore from Oracle Archive to Oracle S3 must get requested (can take up to 24h)
2. last full-backup (max age 30days) + all following incr. must get copied to local system (+ one metadata file per VM)
3. Restore of this files with Veeam can happen to new hardware
When migrating this to a PBS (running native on a ugreen NAS) I try to come to a similar approach, but currently I'm unable to find a working solution, cause all
* PBS don't know about the inaccessability for chunk files on Archive storage
* I don't know, which chunk files are required (in case of required restore request from archive to normal)
* Oracle retension has no information about the requirement of a file based on deduplication from PBS (would be required for autodelete after expiry of retension time)
* when having everything on Objectstorage
- data are not necessary protected from deletetion.
- costs are 10x higher (might be superseeded with a better deduplication, which was explicitly denied for per VM backup files on Veeam)
any ideas about this?
