Veeam Backup & Replication V12: changing a job's backup repository
Goals
Modify the backup repository of a Veeam job without recreating it entirely.
Prerequisites
Have an existing backup job linked to a backup repository.
Step 1: Create a new backup repository pointing to the new bucket.
Follow this procedure.
Step 2: Modify the backup job to be redirected
Right-click on the job and click on "Edit".
Click on "Next" until you reach the "Storage" section, then select the new backup repository and click on "Next":
A window appears, click on "Move existing" then "OK" on the next one:
Then click on "Next", "Apply" and "Finish".
The job is now redirected to the new bucket, and the next backup will transfer the entire job to the new backup repository.
