Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of a Virtual Lab in Veeam Backup & Replication?

  • To create a separate subnet for the Veeam server
  • To verify VMs in an isolated virtual environment (correct)
  • To act as a production backup repository
  • To host the Veeam Backup & Replication console

    • What is the role of the Linux Appliance (Proxy Appliance) in the Virtual Lab?

  • Manages the Veeam server's static routes
  • Acts as a router between the production and an isolated network (correct)
  • Serves as a backup repository for VMs
  • Runs the Veeam Backup & Replication console

    • Why does the Veeam Backup & Replication server need to be on the same subnet as the Virtual Lab?

  • To create a separate backup network
  • To isolate the Veeam server from the Virtual Lab
  • To improve backup performance
  • For Ping Validation over the Masquerade network (correct)

    Study Notes

    Configuring Virtual Labs in Veeam Backup & Replication

    • In the initial proxy appliance configuration, users select the ESXi host, Datastore, and Networking for the proxy appliance.
    • Multiple Virtual Labs can be beneficial for specific use-cases, such as testing replicated machines associated with jobs that will have their IPs changed during failover.
    • The Virtual Lab appliance requires a production IP address, connectivity and routing to Veeam Backup & Replication, hostname, DNS A record entries, DNS server IPs, and a gateway IP.
    • There are three different network modes to choose from: Basic Single-Host, Advanced Single-Host, and Advanced Multi-host.
    • Utilizing Virtual Distributed switching for a multi-host bubble test requires Enterprise Plus licensing on VMware.
    • For Virtual Standard Switching (VSS), a Virtual Switch is created for the Virtual Lab, while for Virtual Distributed Switching (VDS/DVS), a VDS is selected, and Port Groups are created.
    • Isolated Network Settings require the entry of the production IP or replica re-IP subnet and gateway for each isolated networking in the Virtual Lab.
    • The replica Gateway IP is only required on the isolated vNIC for that network if the Virtual Lab is being assigned to a DataLab used to test and validate replication jobs with re-IP settings.
    • IP Masquerading is a 1:1 association between a subnet/route used to access the Virtual Lab virtual machine from the Veeam Backup & Replication server.
    • Static IP Mapping allows the creation of a 1:1 static IP mapping of an IP address of a VM on an isolated network and allows traffic to an assignable production IP address.
    • Veeam V12 currently does not support bubble testing against NSX-T SDN, impacting replication job network mappings and re-IP capabilities in networks that utilize NSX.
    • vNFS is utilized for mounting an NFS datastore to the ESXi host in the form of an Instant Recovery, specifically for testing Backup and Backup Copy jobs w/ DataLabs.
