VMware vSphere • LucidLink DR using Veeam

We use https://www.lucidlink.com/ & they had a massive outage 2 months ago which lasted 2 days

This is what LucidLink says re: Business Continuity planning, backup and Disaster Recovery with LucidLink Filespaces
https://support.lucidlink.com/hc/en-us/ ... -Filespace

Failover from backups can be architected in different ways. For example, one could take backups of their LucidLink Filespace every 4 hours using Veeam. The backup data is written to local storage. In the event of a disaster, one could restore the critical data from the Veeam backup to a Windows file server, assign permissions accordingly on that Windows File Server for the restored data and let users begin accessing the file server via the LAN in the office and VPN remotely.

Install one of this hardware appliance with required capacity on prem and use Veeam backup to backup LucidLink file space

or
Install a big enough harden Veeam Linux repository and do the same

Because this is local it will be faster backup/restore then using a S3 provides like Wasabi, AWS, BackBlaze etc..

I like some advise please
