Read the first 7 Veeam Components and Architecture flashcards as text
  1. Which Veeam component provides monitoring, reporting, and capacity planning capabilities for the backup infrastructure?

    Answer: Veeam ONE

    Veeam ONE is a dedicated monitoring and analytics product that provides dashboards, reports, and alarms for Veeam and virtual infrastructure.

  2. In a Veeam backup architecture, what is the function of the 'Backup Repository' component?

    Answer: It stores backup files and maintains the backup chain

    The Backup Repository is the storage location where Veeam stores backup files (VBK, VIB, VRB) and maintains the restore point chain.

  3. What type of Veeam repository uses a network share (SMB/NFS) as its storage target?

    Answer: CIFS (SMB) share or NFS share repository

    A CIFS (SMB) or NFS share can be added as a Veeam backup repository, allowing backups to be stored on network-attached storage.

  4. Which Veeam architectural component enables self-service file restores by delegating restore permissions to VM owners?

    Answer: Veeam Enterprise Manager with delegated restore

    Veeam Enterprise Manager provides a self-service portal where VM owners can perform file-level restores without contacting the backup administrator.

  5. In Veeam's Virtual Appliance (HotAdd) transport mode, where is the backup proxy deployed?

    Answer: As a VM running on the same ESXi host as the backed-up VMs

    In HotAdd mode, the proxy is a VM on the same ESXi host, allowing VMware SCSI HotAdd to attach source VM disks directly for data reading.

  6. What is the purpose of the Veeam Installer Service deployed on managed servers?

    Answer: It facilitates remote deployment and upgrade of Veeam components on managed servers

    The Veeam Installer Service runs on managed servers to enable the Backup Server to remotely deploy, upgrade, or remove Veeam components.

  7. In Veeam's architecture, which component would you add to reduce the load on the primary Backup Server when managing a large number of remote sites?

    Answer: Additional Backup Servers managed by Enterprise Manager

    For large distributed environments, deploying additional Backup Servers (each managing local jobs) and centralizing them via Enterprise Manager reduces load on any single server.
