Periodic Copy jobs became legacy in V12. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_copy_modes.html?ver=120 NOTE Periodic backup copy jobs created in Veeam Backup & Replication 11 or earlier became legacy periodic backup copy jobs in Veeam Backup & Replication 12. Legacy periodic backup copy jobs are fully operational, but you can only edit them and cannot create new ones. You can upgrade backup files of a legacy periodic backup copy job to the per-machine backup files using mapping. For more information, see Upgrading Backup Chain Formats.
