Agenda
vPower Overview 5 vPower features
• Instant VM Recovery (demo)• Universal-Application Item Recovery or U-AIR (demo)• File-Level recovery from any file system• Recovery Verification (demo)• Using Virtual Labs to make your developers, DBAs and users happy
(demo)
Existing tools aren’t doing the job
Traditional backup● Agent in each VM
● Full VM recovery is complex
● Expensive
● Does not guarantee recoverability
Traditional image-based backup● Backs up the entire VM at the VMware level (image)
● Full VM recovery is very easy
● No verification of crash-consistent image
Traditional image-based recovery● Might be able to recovery some guest files
● Does not address application items
Veeam Backup & Replication
vPower
Breakthrough technology
Publishes the backup as a regular VMDK file● Compressed, deduplicated, incremental
Runs a VM directly from the backup file● Runs on regular backup storage● Does not make any changes to the backup file
Automatically manages an isolated virtual lab● Workflow engine manages requests● Proxy appliance provides access into the isolated environment
“This is why I love Veeam. They take all the virtualization technology pieces on the table and put them together into a functioning business solution.”

Instant VM recovery
Fast: start VM directly from backup file
Readily available:uses existing backupsand backup storage
Buys you time:users keep working whileyou troubleshootthe problem
How it works
Publishes the contents of the backup file as a datastore that an ESX(i) host can connect to
Uses vPower NFS server
Works with compressed, deduplicated and incremental backups
Use Storage vMotion, replication or hot VM copy to complete the recovery
Demo
U-AIR
No application-specific agents to licenseNo additional products to buyNo special backups to create
Supports ANY virtualized application
Durable—not tied to application internals
Supports administrator- and user-directed recovery● Wizards for administrator-directed item recovery from
Microsoft Exchange, Active Directory and SQL Server● User-directed item recovery from ANY application or database
Maintains separation of permissions between backup administrators and application owners
