oVirt / Red Hat Virtualization Backup with Veeam
Backup for oVirt and Red Hat Virtualization (RHV 4.4 SP1) environments with integrated deployment from the Veeam console and an offsite copy in Spain.
Why oVirt / Red Hat Virtualization and Veeam
Red Hat Virtualization has entered end-of-support and many organisations still run their oVirt clusters while planning the jump to OpenShift Virtualization or another hypervisor. Backup cannot be left hanging during that transition: Veeam still protects oVirt/RHV and can restore those workloads onto the target platform.
Support for Red Hat Virtualization 4.4 SP1 and KVM-based oVirt distributions.
New in 13.1: integrated component deployment straight from the Veeam console.
A clean exit: restore your oVirt VMs onto vSphere, Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV or Proxmox VE whenever you decide to migrate.
What you can do with Veeam
Protection capabilities available on oVirt / Red Hat Virtualization in Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1.
Agentless incremental backup
Forever-incremental copies using KVM-based CBT. Only changed blocks travel, shrinking the backup window and network usage.
Instant Recovery
Boot the machine straight from the repository in minutes, without waiting for a full restore. Targets: vSphere, Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV or Proxmox VE.
Granular restore
Recover a single file, a mailbox or a database table without bringing up the whole VM or restoring the entire backup.
Application-aware processing
Consistent copies of SQL Server, Exchange, Active Directory, Oracle and PostgreSQL, with log truncation and point-in-time restore.
Malware scanning
Content analysis of the backup to spot dormant threats and locate the last clean point before restoring.
Immutable offsite copy
Automatic shipping of restore points to our Madrid repository, with immutability and end-to-end encryption.
And the copy that saves you: offsite at EasyDataHost
Local backup handles accidental deletion. It does not handle fire, theft, or ransomware that reaches the backup console. That is why the copy of your oVirt / Red Hat Virtualization environment leaves your infrastructure and lands in our Tier III+ Madrid data center.
Real immutability
Once written, the copy cannot be modified or deleted until retention expires. Not even with compromised admin credentials.
End-to-end encryption
AES-256 in transit and at rest. You hold the keys: without them the data is unreadable, including to us.
ENS High and ISO 27001
Infrastructure certified to ENS High (RD 311/2022) and ISO 27001:2022, audited by SGS.
Data in Spain
Tier III+ data center in Madrid (Data4, Alcobendas). Data residency on Spanish soil and GDPR compliance.
24/7 support
Engineers who know your platform. No escalation to a support centre in another time zone.
Veeam Gold Partner
Licences at a discount on list price, architecture design and rollout included.
How it works
Veeam protects your oVirt / Red Hat Virtualization environment
Backup jobs run against your infrastructure and write to your local repository, on the window and retention you define.
A backup copy job does the rest
You add our repository as the secondary target. Veeam ships restore points automatically, incrementally and encrypted.
GFS retention and immutability
Daily, weekly, monthly and yearly per your policy. With immutability on, nobody can delete them early — you included.
You restore when you need to
Full VM, disk, file or application, straight from the offsite copy and without downloading the whole backup.
