| Fact | Disaster Recovery Linux Manager | Veeam Recovery Orchestrator |
|---|---|---|
| Automation | DRLM can automatically install clients from the server; the client must be reachable over SSH for that workflow. | It uses Veeam Backup & Replication recovery capabilities to build disaster recovery workflows and automate recovery processes. |
| Integrations | The documentation lists error reporting integrations for HP OpenView, Nagios, Zabbix, and email. | The documented architecture can connect NetApp and HPE storage systems, vCenter, SCVMM, Hyper-V and Azure Local clusters. |
| Purpose | DRLM centrally manages GNU/Linux disaster recovery using Relax-and-Recover (ReaR). | Veeam Recovery Orchestrator coordinates recovery processes and provides one-click recovery plans for critical applications, with documentation and testing features. |
| Security | The release notes state that DRLM added encrypted backup files and a security token for communication between server and client. | Veeam recommends enabling multifactor authentication for the web UI, restricting internet inbound connections, and limiting outbound HTTPS connections to specified Veeam and Microsoft update sources. |
| Support | The project says professional support is available as a paid service, while free support is provided in contributors’ spare time when available. | Veeam offers email and phone technical support to customers on maintenance and during the official evaluation period. |
