Solved Question About Veeam Endpoint Protection Recovery Media

No, you just need to write the ISO files to a network share and ensure that is backed up someplace also.
Then you just make a bootable USB form whichever desk you need to full restore.

it is a good idea, but i have to learn how to export the boot files as iso image in order to save it in a network share
thank you -
Do you have Linux? If so, the dd command will do this and is built into every significant Linux distro. If you only have Windows, you can get dd via Chocolatey.

no i have only windows
veeam create a bootable USB, what about copying the folders and files in the USB and paste them in folder that has the name of this computer and do the same for next computer, finally we have many folders, each folder contains the USB boot files of each computer, then if we want to boot computer x from the USB, we will go to the folder x and copy paste into USB then boot from USB,
what do you think about this ?? -

what do you think about this ??Copying files from a bootable device isn't useful. Image it and store the image file. Don't do anything else. Pasting files into anything (CD, DVD, USB Stick, SD, Hard Drive) cannot be booted. Imaging and file copies are extremely different things.

thank youYou can build the ISO directly from within the app.

Check out the first image in this link. Select the "Image" entry from the listbox to create an ISO.
-
-
Note the highlighted section. This is what embeds the drivers in the ISO, they are checked by default. Also note, I selected to make an image file.
Specify the location for the image file. I use a network share, but you can easily put it on the C drive temporarily and copy it off after the process is done.
Confirm what you picked.
Watch it complete.

Looks like you could add the network drivers for most if not all of your systems so a single restore image could work for them all.
A bit more work, but only having to hang onto one disk, kinda nice.

I assume you meant drivers?

No, i think you have to create for each system his own image, when you have issue with machine x, go and find the image x and boot from it (make bootable USB based on this image)

No, look at my first screenshot. there is a checkbox there to let you include MORE drivers. If you do this, you could easily have a single ISO image that would work on all your devices.

i see it now, but do you think it is safe to boot all of your machines from one image that has multiple drivers, is that the best practice
i think if you have an image for each machine is safe and smooth, what do you think ??
