Vembu BDR Suite Opens a new window supports backup On premise and replication to AWS Cloud. Assuming you have more than just one esxi host, you could use veeam to replicate the veeam client between hosts too (again assuming you have local storage on each esxi host). The basic idea is to resemble the same workflow that a Veeam architect will follow when designing a new Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure: 1-Assess: first, you start by surveying the environment you need to protect. Here, you will see useful information and tricks like configuration options, registry keys, hints and so on; 4-Operate: when the environment is ready, its time to use it!
