The configuration database of Veeam Backup & Replication can be backed up and restored. If the backup server fails, you can quickly reinstall it and restore its configuration from a backup configuration.
You can also use configuration backups to restore the configuration from one backup server to another in the backup infrastructure. Veeam Backup & Replication exports configuration data from the database and saves it to the backup repository during configuration backup.

2. Open the Veeam Backup & Replication Console and click Connect.
3. Enter the MFA Confirmation code and click Confirm.

7. Enter the restore points number in the Restore points to keep field.
8. Click Notifications.

12. Click OK.
13. Click Schedule on the Configuration Backup Settings page.
14. On the Backup Configuration Schedule page, select Run the job automatically checkbox.
15. Select Daily at this time, enter the backup time in the time field and select every day from the drop-down list.
