Purpose
This article was designed to complement the information available in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide, specifically the required storage account and container settings to align with the Azure Blob Storage Immutability Limitations.
This article describes the correct options that must be selected when configuring an Azure Storage Account to leverage the Veeam Backup & Replication Azure Immutability feature, available starting with Veeam Backup & Replication 12.
More Information
Immutability will make your data impossible to delete before its immutability retention expiration, except in the event of termination of the associated Azure subscription due to failure to pay. If you fail to pay your bill and your account has an active time-based retention policy in effect, normal data retention policies will apply as stipulated in the terms and conditions of your contract with Microsoft. For general information, see Data management at Microsoft.
