This repository hosts the lab guide for Lab 15 - Backup/DR with Veeam Kasten K10 at 2025 Red Hat One.
It is designed to work with the Showroom lab environment provided by the Red Hat Demo Platform (RHDP) team.
OpenShift Virtualization enables you to bring virtual machines onto a modern, Kubernetes-based infrastructure. It enables the development and delivery of new applications as well as the modernization of existing ones and can create applications that consist of virtual machines, containers, and serverless functions - all managed together using Kubernetes-native tools and paradigms.
In this lab we will explore disaster recovery, backup and restore of Virtual Machines using the Veeam Kasten K10 product.
These are the five main sections that will be covered:
-
Installing Veeam Kasten: In this section we will provide a review of how to install the product on any OpenShift cluster. Since the product is already installed in the lab environment this sectionwill be a review only.
-
Creating Location Profiles: In this section, we will use setup the Kasten K10 product with a location profile to specify storage for the virtual machine backups.
-
Protecting Virtual Machines: In this section we will perform several backup and restore operations with virtual machines.
-
Optional: Configuring Multi Cluster: In this section you will learn how to set up Kasten Multi-Cluster Manager. Since our lab environment is a single cluster this section will be review only.
-
Optional: Migrating Workloads: This section addresses restoring backups to different clusters. Since our lab environment is a single cluster this section will be review only.
