6. Launch the restore. The file browser opens.
7. Find the file to restore among the files in the

9. Select or enter the destination for the restore.
Fail because permission or network issues prevent

1-Click File Restore
Find and restore individual guest files back to the original
location with a single click in seconds!
Files are restored in-place and directly to the virtual disk
of live production VM
Speeds file restores and improves RTO 10x or more
1-Click File Restore (continued)
File restore operator role (limited to IFLR tasks and views)
Can restrict to restoring specific file types only
Secure
File restore operators do not need permissions on Veeam backup
files, the host, the target VM, or restored files
Can restrict access to the content of restored files
Fast
Based on proven IFLR engine
(restore directly from backup file without staging)
1-Click File Restore (continued)
Does not require direct network connection to VM
Safe
Restores as new file if original file is locked
Complete
Supports GPT partitions and simple dynamic disks
Demo: 1-Click File Restore
Between hosts
Between datastores
Uses VMware vMotion or VMware Storage vMotion, when available
Otherwise, uses Veeam Quick Migration technology to migrate running VMs with least possible downtime
Tightly integrated with vPower engine for smooth
finalization of Instant VM Recovery
Unchanged data blocks are copied directly from the backup file,
instead of vPower NFS, increasing speed and reducing impact
Scenario 1: Migrate VMs between hosts
Scenario 2: Migrate VMs between datastores
Scenario 3: Migrate VMs between hosts & datastores
But wait, there’s more!
Introducing SmartSwitch™
Minimizes downtime (eliminates shutdown/reboot cycle)
Ideal for Instant VM Recovery
How it works
2. Copies virtual disk deltas and VM memory state
3. Resumes the target VM
Requires that source and target hosts have compatible
CPUs
What else is new in v6?
Engine
Backup
Restore
Engine optimizations provide up to 5x faster speed
(depending on storage, processing mode and proxy server)
TCP/IP connection multi-threading
with repositories, allowing for better WAN link utilization
Swap file exclusion
excluded from processing
Backup file mapping
Map new job to existing v6 backup file to eliminate need for an
initial full backup
Enhanced compatibility with deduplicating storage
Less “chat” with existing backup files
Optional backup file data alignment
Restore
No performance issues with thin disks (unlike direct SAN restore)
1-click full VM restore
Minimizes the chance of user error and speeds recovery
Virtual disk restore wizard
Restore (continued)
Network mapping
VM ID preservation
Preserves VM ID during in-place restore of full VM
Prevents backup jobs and 3rd party tools tied to VM ID from
breaking
Improves RTOs by removing additional network configuration
Important for environments with vCloud Director
Indexing and search
Use guest file search capabilities out of the box!
Scalability TBD (few hundred VMs expected)
Microsoft Search Server support still available for better search
performance in environments with thousands of VMs
Reduced catalog size
Statistics and reports
Enhanced real-time statistics
More frequent updates
Percent busy time for each data processing stage makes it
easy to identify primary bottleneck for each job
Statistics and Reports (Continued)
Dynamic wizards automatically show/hide additional steps
depending on selections to speed up configuration tasks
VM ordering
Multi-user access
for simultaneous administration
Enterprise Manager UI
Clone job and modify it right in the web UI!
FIPS compliance
Look and feel
Enterprise Manager UI (continued)
Simplified syntax (e.g., built-in Name parameter)
Support for masks in object names
Object search (same as in UI)
Find-VBRViEntity -Name fs*
Gets all VMware VMs with names starting from “fs” letters
Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name NAS
Add-VBRHvBackupJob -BackupRepository (Get-VBRBackupRepository
Creates a Hyper-V backup job to backup repository “Drobo” and
adds all VMs ending with “db” to the job
Other features
Automated, wizard-driven install of proxies and repositories
No messing with virtual appliances import and configuration!
1-click upgrade
pops up when you open UI
All v6 components (including those in remote offices) can be upgraded
to the new version with a single click
1-click log collection
Multiple minor improvements
