Agent-Based VM Backup and Recovery

You can use the agent-based backup approach in NAKIVO Backup & Replication to discover and back up virtual machines. For the list of supported hypervisors, refer to Feature Requirements.

By using agent-based backup, you can discover Proxmox VMs as physical machines and create image-based backups of Proxmox VM data. You can then fully recover this data to a VM on the same hypervisor or perform file- or object-level recovery.

The following recovery scenarios are supported for VMs protected using the agent-based backup approach:

  • Bare metal recovery to the same hypervisor (see Physical Machine Backup).

  • File-level recovery

  • Object-level recovery

  • Universal object recovery

    Note

    Immutability is supported.

For system requirements, refer to the Supported Platforms page.

For a full list of supported backup/backup copy jobs destinations, see the corresponding section in Feature Requirements.
