VB365 Restore Audit - The Definitive Guide

Greetings everyone, Audit Logging always is an interesting topic, it doesn’t matter if you need this due to compliance, or just for best practices. Having visibility of restore operations of something as critical as emails, documents, etc. should be a must.When I am mentioning the word Audit, I am talking about all the Restore operations that anybody does using the Explorers, PowerShell, or API, or even using the new Restore Portal (meaning opening an email, restoring it, saving it, etc.)As we stand today, we have the next methods to Audit the Restore Operations:Inside the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Console, under History - Restore On Windows Logs, on the Client who opened the Console and Explorers (bear this in mind) RESTFul API can send real-time alerts RESTful API to obtain RestoreSessions with extreme great detail Windows Logs to parse some Infrastructure actions like Job Creation, Edit, Deletion, etc.Advanced VB365 AuditPowerShell audit - Some visibilityLet’s start with PowerS

The importance of testing these backups!

Hello, I wanted to share with you a customer’s feedback that I encountered. They contacted me to report extremely slow restoration times during a file restoration process.I was a bit surprise cause I had tested all types of restauration on his infrastructure and everything worked properly.The restore type : “Guest File Restore” OS: Microsoft Restore option: Keep Folder Size : 64 MB Restore Time: 1h30min 😱I first checked the log in the History I directly noticed the fact that the restoration is via vSphere guest interaction API and not using a Veeam proxy .After a brief exchange with the admin, it figured out that the VM to which the files should be restored is in a new Vlan ! You’ve probably guessed it, but it’s once again the fault of the network!Indeed, the network openings between the Veeam environment and the production environment for this new VLAN have not been set up, after having done the necessary we tried again the restore.This time, the restore used my proxy and took only f

Implement 3-2-1 rule with SOBR on Synology and Wasabi

According to @Rick Vanover , the Scale-out Backup Repository (SOBR) is a logical entity that groups several backup repositories called extents. This is a software way to pool storage for backup data management. I have written a detailed guide on my blog “how to Achieve 3-2-1 rule with SOBR on Synology or OOTBI and Wasabi”.We can implement the 3-2-1 backup rule via the SOBR. The 3-2-1 backup rule recommends having three copies of your data, stored on two different types of media, with one copy kept off-site. Here is a great post by Rick below as well.https://www.veeam.com/blog/321-backup-rule.htmlA scale-out backup repository is an architecture that enables you to extend your backup storage by adding multiple repositories. Adding a new extent to an existing scale-out repository is an easy way to extend storage without relocating backup chains.The focus of this article is using Synology DS923+ Appliance. But you can also achieve 3-2-1 with the Object First OOTBI appliance. With the recen

Grafana Dashboard for Veeam Backup & Replication

Greetings, friends! I want to share with you the new Grafana Dashboard for Veeam Backup & Replication, no Enterprise Manager is needed, and it uses 100% VBR API.Small note: For those familiar with the data protection scene, you might recall that we’ve already got a Grafana Dashboard dedicated to the Veeam Enterprise Manager API since 2020. Grafana Dashboard for Veeam Backup & Replication API When you finish this article, if you follow all the steps, you should have something similar to this. It might be different according to your environment, number of days you select, protected workloads, jobs, etc.Dashboard – SummaryJob Historical Information – The very first graph. The most important one in my opinion. Grouped by 24 hours, get to know the status of your policies per day, on a range in time. Job Historical Information Table – Very similar to the previous panel, but this time with more details about job name, status, date, etc. Job Historical Information Duration – Very simil

How To Update Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure v.7

Recently, I’ve been creating videos to help others get started with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure. While I was working on the videos, things got meta because I realized I needed to update my own environment. That evening, I sat down to play Sims and needed to run game and mod updates. As I ran those updates, I thought about how I had just gone through a similar process earlier that day at work. So today I want to talk about software updates and share how to update Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure, part of the Veeam Data Platform. Why Update?Even though I know they’re important, unmanaged software updates can be inconvenient, especially if you’re in the middle of something. As a general piece of advice, schedule software updates when they’re convenient to you rather than letting the software decide for you. Just remember that the longer you push off a software update, the more risks you run. In addition to missing features, outdated software is more likely to have compromised securit

VMCE Practice Question - 5 September 2024

Forgot to post the 2nd question for the week yesterday, so here it is…Please hide your comments. Good luck!To keep your backups running at peak performance, you choose to enable Maintenance settings in your jobs, specifically to Defragment and Compact your backups on the Last Saturday of the month, as shown in the image below: Defragment ConfigurationWhen you look at your Backup Job history on this day to verify this task ran, there is no mention of it in the list of job tasks. What might cause Compact to not run?You have Linux VMs in your Backup Job Your Repository is not configured to use Per-VM backups Your Backup Jobs are running the Forward Incremental Backup Method Compact is only available for Enterprise and above Veeam Editions
