Can I make a backup on Windows Sever 2008 R2 (or 2008) with Windows Server Backup and restore it on Windows Server 2012 R2 (or 2012) with Windows Server Backup?

    Needs more specificity. specifically, what you're backing up and what you're hoping to restore. Mar 10, 2015 at 17:03
  • I have in mind restore a single common file (or various common files) and the posibility of restore the whole system.

Yes this should be possible. I just tested this by backing up some files on 2008 R2 and restored them on a Server 2012 R2.

I haven't tested a Full server,Bare metal recovery or System state backup but that makes less sense anyways.
