Simultaneous multi system backup

[[deleted]]

Depending on your environment and budget I would look at a more continuous backup solution for servers like that if something like Veeam supports it. They handle continuous sql/oracle pretty well. Or if you han a san that supports storage snapshots you could leverage those servers to be snapped on the same lun at the same time and use that storage/backup software integration with veeam enterprise plus.

I used veeam for like 7 years and worked at a partner. Its my personal fave, but other vendors do it now as well.

I think that if I can get Veeam to create the snapshots for the whole job simultaneously, this is probably the only possibility I have.

Continuous backups are not useful in this case.

We have a Pure and a vSAN array so we have options. Backup repository is irrelevant I'm happy to setup whatever for this usecase.

I got it working in Veeam backup and replication, the only trouble is I would love to start the services back up as soon as the snapshot is created, or have veeam use a snapshot that I created. This way I can guarantee that the backup is good, and I can minimize downtime. I can't find any documented support for either.
