Barracuda Backup Agent for Windows, macOS, and Linux Recovery

  • Last updated on

To restore data backed up using the Barracuda Backup Agent, the Agent must be installed on the restoration target. The exception to this is a file or folder download which does not require the Barracuda Backup Agent to be present. Data can be restored to any target where the Agent is installed, whether or not it was previously backed up with Barracuda Backup.

Cross restores to different agents and operating systems are currently not supported. Windows Agent backups can only be restored to Windows, Linux Agent backups can only be restored to Linux, and MacOS Agent restores can only be restored to MacOS.
