Hello,
I have very simple backup needs and have been using Veritas System Recovery for years.
Is there a way to do an offsite to Backblaze? I am turning up nothing on my searches.
thanks!

I think you can follow the procedures for backing up to S3 as long as Backblaze offers a compatible API.

Hi,
To use Backblaze, v4 signatures are needed. (See the below URL) However, System Recovery does not yet support v4 signatures. So unfurtunately Backblaze is unavailable on System Recovery.
=====================
https://www.backblaze.com/b2/docs/s3_compatible_api.html
The Backblaze S3 Compatible API only supports v4 signatures for authentication and does not support v2 signatures at this time.
=====================
On the other hand, Backup Exec 22 began supporting v4 signatures. Actually I confirmed that Backblaze is available on Backup Exec 22. I published the below article for Backup Exec 22 and Backblaze.
How to use Backblaze as S3 Private Cloud storage on Backup Exec 22 or later.

Probably System Recovery will support v4 signatures in near future.
