Step 4. Specify IAM Identity for Restore

At the Account step of the wizard, specify how Veeam Backup for AWS must access AWS services and resources to perform EBS volume restore:

An IAM role or IAM user whose access keys you will specify determine to which AWS account EBS volumes will be restored. For information on what permissions an IAM role or IAM user requires to perform restore, see this Veeam KB article.

Specifying IAM Role

To specify an IAM role for restore:

  2. Select the necessary IAM role from the list.

If you have not added the necessary IAM role to Veeam Backup for AWS beforehand, you can do it without closing the Volume Restore wizard. To add the IAM role, click Add and follow the steps described in the Adding IAM Roles section.
