I just got all of our systems upgraded to v12. With that said, I have two clients using hardened repo’s and two different people set them up, neither of them were me, and the system I’m working on now - the engineer that set that up left the company and moved on a couple months ago. I planned on dipping into these a while ago but never had the time and am now thrust into it. And my linux skills are still fairly basic, maybe intermediate at best.So here’s what I have:The configuration, not that I think it matters, but is a Ubuntu VM running on a Synology NAS with a virtual disk mounted to the VM. I upgraded from v11 to v12 but the repository became unavailable during this process. Single-use credentials are in place and I think I’ve mostly got around the learning curve on this, but can’t quite make connections on things.There are two accounts, I’ll call them “repouser” and “admin”. Repouser is the account that should have permissions to the repo at /mnt/veeamrepo/backups. Admin i
Hi Everyone, We are back with a new episode and some great swag!
Following up from this: I have my backup policies to only keep 1 backup (for exporting) to S3 compatible.I have a reasonably fresh Ceph cluster with 33 images. Earlier I noticed 35 images, some image(s) have been created by Kasten K10 that haven’t been deleted properly… (and an unexpected increase in disk space usage)In Ceph trash I see two images that it can’t delete because of error: [errno 39] RBD image has snapshots (error deleting image from trash)So I run this:for x in $(rbd list --pool ceph-blockpool); doecho "Listing snapshots for $x:"rbd snap ls ceph-blockpool/$xdone for x in $(rbd list --pool ceph-blockpool); do rbd snap ls ceph-blockpool/$x doneThe output doesn’t show any snaps for images…When I try and gather more info about the two images that can’t be purged:rbd status ceph-blockpool/csi-snap-9cafd9dd-7fa2-40cc-b0fd-69c937008228rbd: error opening image csi-snap-9cafd9dd-7fa2-40cc-b0fd-69c937008228: (2) No such file or directoryrbd status ceph-blockpool/csi-snap-4795fabd-
Hackathon logo. Features Alfred, the community cat. Also shows arrows to Community, Development, Teamwork, Time, Presenting, Goal, and Brainstorm icons and text. These are parts included in the hackathonOn September 28, 2023, @JonahMay and I will organize the 1st Annual Veeam Community Hackathon! This event will start at 15:00 CEST/9:00 AM EST and will run for 24hTeams of 12-18 will work together and consist of people from all over the world, with the ultimate goal to bring the world together in a fun community event You are not required to participate for the full 24h but you are welcome to. Each group has a group-leader. This leader is someone from the Veeam100 group We are using members from the Veeam100 group because they are experts in the Veeam products. The teams should make the life of an end-user easier by creating a complementary product to one of the existing Veeam products. An example would be the Grafana dashboards created by @jorge.delacruz There is no limit on the te
Hi Everyone, I was hoping for some advice on an issue I’ve found after upgrading to V6 of Veeam Agent for Windows free edition on Win 10 22H2.I’m not sure why but until I upgraded from V5 to V6 my backups were running fine every evening and completing without any issues, since the upgrade to V6 the backup starts but either sits at 0% 14% or 18% and regardless of how long the PC is left running it never seems to get past this point. I’ve disabled throttling in the menus in the hope this was slowing the backups down but its had no effect on them.The total “full backup” size is around 1Tb split across a Sata M.2 boot drive and a regular old 1Tb spinning disk, I’m running Kaspersky AV for reference. The only change I’ve made is the upgrade from 5-6 is is possible to downgrade back to 5 to test if this is a veeam issue on the PC or will that force a new backup ?Any advice would be appreciated as I’m at a loss as to why the backups have just started taking so long.*Edit* I’d also like to men
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
Hi Folks, K10 version 6 has been released. There are some very interesting new features like application finger printing and more integration with VBR.Check out the release notes here:https://docs.kasten.io/latest/releasenotes.html I will be taking a look at this today and might come back with a short vlog in the K10 documentation series that was planned for as well.
Hi everyone, I thought this was a good conversation point I wanted to share, as the more I thought about it, the more my thoughts on the subject changed. AMD have released an errata listing that details how their AMD EPYC Rome (7xx2) processors can, under specific conditions, crash. I’ve included the statement in its entirety below:I’m conflicted on this, my initial reaction was “wow they won’t fix this?!”, then I thought, well I guess it would involve a new stepping, and the chips were released in 2018, that’s not too unreasonable.The security conscious part of me thought, oh boy who isn’t patching their servers in nearly 3 years, but even that thought then pivoted to consider that actually with some of the live/hot patching options now available, OS-level patching is becoming less tied to a reboot. Then there’s the use-cases whereby these servers are isolated and patching become less-mission critical. But it’s safe to say any of these systems aren’t getting firmware updates in any ca
Good evening, several of my Replications and backups take a long time to complete and I would like to know the cause and the means to resolve this.
A little background for those who don't know I developed and have managed a custom search engine for Veeam named resources for (almost) 5 years. With the success of this one hitting over 200k unique searches I want to and expand and test a new search engine that pulls in content from third-party content creators outside the Veeam domain. I struggled if I should put this content directly into the original search engine or to keep it separate and I have decided to keep it separate for now... with the possibility of adding it into the main search depending how it does later. Please read AllWhat I need from you: If you would like your blog or you would like to promote someone's blog who has good Veeam content please comment that URL. I am looking for additional things that might help define good tags. Content can be anything from cross langue support, best practice, release in information, troubleshooting, and anything else Veeam related. Not limited to the Veeam 100 managed content.Not ju
