Hi teamCan someone shed some light on this and how best to go about it.We have Nutanix cluster A and Nutanix cluster B.VM have been moved from cluster A with Nutanix Move, which creates a new VM on cluster B and syncs data. My guess is that it creates a new UUIDThere is an existing backup to a Wasabi Repo from cluster A.How can I re-create/re-point the backups that are on the repo so that the copied VM on cluster B can continue to use the backups already there?I am not so sure if there is a remap function for this. I also cannot add vm from the new cluster to the existing job as it only allows me to select existing one. It appears that you select cluster first when creating the job.My guess is I may have to create a new job and let old one age out?

Hi all,Having major issues with the RAID controller on one of our production computer’s motherboards. I’m trying to test a non-RAID setup to see if that fixes all the crashes we’re experiencing. Are there any special considerations when restoring a backup that was set up on a RAID array to a newly setup non-RAID hard drive? Appreciate any help, thanks!

I’m unable to connect VSPC to Cloud Connect. When I try to add the Cloud Connect server from Configuration → Catalog → Veeam Cloud Connect, it fails with “Failed to connect to the deployment service.” I’ve already tried disabling Windows Firewall and antivirus, but the issue persists. I can install the agent manually on the Cloud Connect server without any errors; however, after installation, the server only appears under Discovery in VSPC and does not show up under Catalog → Cloud Connect → Veeam Cloud Connect Integration. Both servers are on the same subnet with no firewall in between.  

Nutanix announced Acropolis in June 2015 that is based on Linux KVM. Along with that, they added Prism to simplify management of their hyperconverged infrastructure and VMs. For a long time Nutanix was only built as hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). This makes it hard to justify replacing VMware if you just made a capital expense purchase in servers or storage. However, as of December 2025, Dell PowerFlex and Pure Storage have been added as supported storage integration, this was a great move to open those that have made a recent storage investment to be able to consider Nutanix for workloads. They also have some server alliance partnerships to run their hypervisor on other supported compute platforms. Nutanix is a publicly traded company with over 7,000 employees globally.From a use case perspective, I feel it fits for small remote offices and large enterprise or IaaS hosting environments. Nutanix also has multi-tenant isolation capabilities built in including self-servic

Hi All,  Has anyone seen hotadd Linux (Rocky 9.7) VM proxies go sideways and not mount after upgrading to v13? I also added a new v13 appliance proxy and the result were the same. Changing transports to net work fine. On this client side logging it shows: Error: Access to [/dev/sdb] is denied.Failed to check whether access to path is grantedFailed to open disk for write.Failed to download disk 'snapshot-909174XXXX'. CC tenant job logging has: <842>    Info (3)    Skipping VcdDatastore (VcdRef=[urn:vcloud:datastore:GUIDXXXXXX], Name=[*CLIENT_DS*]) because it does not have valid underlying vCenter resources VCSA 8.3VCD 10.4xVBR 13Rocky 9.7 latest Kernel.  We have a Sev1 open but its currently pending logging reviews.  

Hi everyone,I’ve just published the February edition in the “Regkey of the Month series” This month’s focus is on the EnableSameHostHotaddMode registry setting in Veeam Backup & Replication.What it does ?Forces Veeam to preferentially use a proxy on the same ESXi host as the VM being backed up — helping to localize backup traffic and reduce performance issues like VM stun and cross-host data transfer.Why this can be interesting for you ?This can be especially useful in complex infrastructures (e.g., HCI or NFS-based storage) where network and snapshot performance matter.If you’re curious how this setting works and when to implement it, check out the full post here:👉

Since this step is similar to the below, I will not be dropping the entire content here. Kindly take a look at the following guide for more information “Building VIHR: Ransomware-Proof Repository with Veeam JeOS”.The article walks through the steps on ho

Hello everyone,I am currently configuring Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 (VBM365) for our company, and I have a question about the disk cache to optimise performance.According to the documentation, the standard installation does not allow the cache to be stored on another drive on the VBM365 server (it is located by default in the local PostgreSQL database on the C drive or on a dedicated PostgreSQL server). However, I would like to avoid deploying an additional PostgreSQL server for simplicity and maintenance reasons. My question:Does anybody use a dedicated cache disk on the VBM365 server? If so, how did you configure it (custom path, script, etc.)? Have you encountered any limitations or performance issues? I would appreciate your feedback or alternative solutions (without external PostgreSQL).Thank you in advance for your advice!Morgan

Over the last decade, ransomware attacks have changed dramatically. What once was a simple malware encrypting user files has evolved into a business-driven cybercrime model. Today, attackers think strategically, move laterally, and aim directly at what truly hurts an organization: its ability to recover. To understand how to defend modern environments, we must first understand hacker thinking. This means looking at attacks from the attacker’s perspective — how they enter, how they move, and how they decide when an attack is successful. More importantly, it means understanding why backup infrastructure has become a primary target, not an afterthought. How Hacker Thinking Has Evolved Over Time In the early days, ransomware attacks were opportunistic. Attackers relied on phishing emails, weak

Running Veeam agent for Linux, v. 6.3.2.1207_x86_64. OS is Mint MATE 22.  Been making weekly backups for a year or more, just now trying a test recovery on spare computer- loaded some files, ran b/u to ext. drive, deleted files.  Have Recovery Media on stick, using steps in user guide.  All good thru several menus until “Mount Local Disc” which brings up a menu “Select Local Disc” but there are no items from which to select.  Backup drive lights up, so recognized by system.  What am I missing?
