The 'Migrate' mode is designed specifically for scenarios where you need to move the Veeam Backup & Replication server and its configuration database to new servers or locations. It ensures a smooth transition without data loss or service interruption. This mode allows you to migrate the entire configuration seamlessly.

I feel like there might be different modes, but I can't remember if there's a specific one for just moving the database. This is tricky!

I practiced a similar question where we had to restore a configuration after a server move, and I think it was "Restore from backup" that we used.

Wait, which restore mode was it again? I'm drawing a blank on the specifics of moving a Veeam setup to new servers. Better review my notes quickly.
