Explanation
Although replica from backup might resemble replica seeding, there is difference between these Replica seeding uses the backup file only during the first run of a replication job. To further build VM replica restore points, the replication job addresses the production environment and reads VM data from the source storage. Remote replica from backup uses a backup chain on the backup repository as the only source of data. When building a new VM replica restore point, Veeam Backup & Replication always reads data from the latest restore point in the backup chain, either full or incremental. The backup chain on the backup repository may be created with a backup job or a backup copy job.
