However, if you use a deduplicating storage appliance with source-side data deduplication, it is reasonable to assign the roles of gateway servers to machines that are located closer to the backup proxy. If you plan to select gateway servers explicitly, these servers must be located as close to the backup repository as possible. You can select a gateway server explicitly or instruct Veeam Backup & Replication to select it automatically. For more information, see Adding Backup Repositories. Īfter that, you must go through the New Backup Repository wizard and define gateway server settings. For more information, see Adding Microsoft Windows Servers or Adding Linux Servers. To configure a gateway server, you must first add a machine that you plan to use as a gateway server to the backup infrastructure using the New Windows Server or New Linux Server wizard.

The role of an NFS or object storage repository gateway server can be assigned to a Microsoft Windows or Linux machine.The role of a Dell Data Domain, HPE StoreOnce or SMB gateway server must be assigned to a Microsoft Windows machine.The role of a gateway server can be assigned to a Microsoft Windows or Linux machine added to the backup infrastructure: Veeam Backup & Replication establishes a connection between the source Veeam Data Mover and target Veeam Data Mover, and transports data from/to backup repositories through gateway servers.įor more information on using gateway servers in backup copy jobs, see Backup Copy Architecture. In the backup infrastructure, a gateway server hosts the target Veeam Data Mover. To overcome this limitation, Veeam Backup & Replication uses gateway servers. Such backup repositories cannot host Veeam Data Movers - Veeam components that establish a connection between a backup proxy and backup repository (in case of backup jobs) or between backup repositories (in case of backup copy jobs).

It can also "bridge" a source backup repository and a target backup repository in case of backup copy jobs. A gateway server is an auxiliary backup infrastructure component that “bridges” the backup server and backup repository.
