We are proud to announce the release of our first joint Legends project: Veeam Backup & Replication Pocketbook v1.

It is a collection of best practices from the field.

The following topics are covered:

  • Backup Basics
  • Security
  • Hardened Repository and Immutability
  • Performance
  • SOBR Capacity Tier Offload
  • SureBackup

We are discussing each recommendation with benefits, disadvantages and links to more information. Currently the Pocketbook can be downloaded here as a pdf-file. 

We are looking forward to your feedback!

Enjoy reading!

Sorry! I did a mistake! I created this post in the Legends-group. I already asked Kseniya to move it to the public area. ...embarrassing :grin:

@vNote42 and other authors : I have read the whole pocketbook and this is really great!

Looking forward being also an author of this pocketbook of version 2 :blush: , as my signature already mentions : I like determining and implementing best practices.

I have just one remark…

Following is mentioned : 

Recommendation: You may want to kick off a tiering job immediately after connecting and configuring your capacity tier. You can force a manual capacity tier offload by right clicking on the SOBR and choosing "run tiering job now" option, or by using a PowerShell command "Start-VBRCapacityTierSync -Repository SOBRNAME". 

 

→ I think that pressing the CTRL-button in combination with right clicking is here forgotten :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

 

Next to that : some idea : perhaps we can also create a pocketbook for Veeam Backup for Office 365 (I know that @Mildur has a lot of knowledge about this product, I also have implemented this product already several times...) and a pocketbook for Veeam ONE.

Let’s say : the 3 biggest products of this awesome vendor!

Good catch on the manual tier job as you need to use Ctrl and right-click. 😉

Great comments @Nico Losschaert, I have one thing to say, do it! This is the Veeam COMMUNITY, you don’t need a green light from Veeam to make it happen, we discussed whether to include Veeam ONE or VBO etc but wanted a fixed scope to help ensure the project was successful.

 

All you need to do now is set up and own that project and whoever is interested in helping will no doubt make themselves known 🙂
