Hello VeeamON In-Person attendees!Let’s just skip to the chase, shall we? 🙂 You’re attending VeeamON this year, and yes you’re interested in all the great content going to be shared and maybe even meeting some new people/networking, but your main focus will be on taking and hopefully passing the VMCE Exam. Are you prepared? What can you do to increase your odds of passing? What’s the exam experience like?Who am I? I’m Shane Williford, Veeam Legend and Community Hub VMCE Study Hall page leader. And, I also took & passed my first VMCE exam at the 2019 VeeamON Conference in Miami, so I have an idea of what the exam experience at a Conference is like.In her VeeamON In-Person Welcome Post (see below):... @Daria_K provides a link to the Community Hub

Dear allCurrently, I have purchased Subscription license for 20 workloads, next month, I need to increase number of workloads. (may be from 20 to 30 workloads)So how to Veeam Server increase number of workloads after purchased new 10 workloads ?Do I need to insert new license or my Veeam backup system auto check from Veeam ? Thanks for your support.

Since we are Veeam Service Providers in the Cloud companies I work with, I have seen that people do not analyze with Bottleneck on Veeam while providing Cloud Connect service. They didn't even know it was happening. Here I briefly explained Veeam Bottleneck to you.Veeam Bottleneck is a tool included in Veeam Backup & Replication software. This tool helps optimize backup and recovery across virtual and physical environments. Bottleneck helps you complete backups faster and more efficiently by identifying bottlenecks in your backup infrastructure.What is a bottleneck?A bottleneck is when a component or process in a system reaches a point where it limits the performance of the entire system. This can cause slow backups, delays, or even failures when it comes to backup operations.How does Veeam Bo

Hey everyone, I'm in the market for a new laptop and I've got my eyes set on an Intel Core i7-powered machine. However, I want to make sure it's compatible with all my needs before making the plunge. What compatibility considerations should I keep in mind when selecting an Intel Core i7 laptop? Are there specific features or specifications I should pay attention to based on my usage requirements? I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences to ensure I make the right choice. Looking forward to your insights! 

our company is the Veeam partner company, hence we deployed the veeam backup and replication software, in there having tape library issue, therefore I have raised the case, but i can’t connect to support team directly.so, please provide any contact number or else other way to connect technical support team ?

Hello guys, I’m trying to setup a new Veeam installation with a remote MS SQL 2022 server. I already did it in the past with another version of Veeam but this time I’m facing an issue.The Database server is in another VLAN, rules are ok on the firewall. On the DB server, I disabled for the moment the Windows Firewall.In the SQL Server Network Configuration I set TCP/IP like this: But during the Veeam installation I got the following error:My service account for the installation is local administrator of the Veeam S

Just wondering if there is any official information on Veeam Update 12.1.2 out yet? What might be coming with it, improvements to SOSAPI? I have heard rumors but wanted to know if I had missed any official news.Thanks

Hey I'm trying to achieve backing up multiple server files on one job then push to  tape as a secondary target but it's not working I trying using file copying job but it's taking too long to run the files can you please provide me with any suggestions?

Got a weird situation I’m not sure of the right approach.  This setup is new to me and has some issues which I fully acknowledge and will be seeking to rectify. I have a restore request to recover the server VM that Veeam B&R is installed on.  It’s a shared application server running on Hyper-V and one of the other applications has become corrupted and the system will have to be rolled back. My plan was to take a configuration backup of Veeam so I could recover Veeam to the current state after the server itself has been rolled back.  The repository is on separate storage so won’t be overwritten by the restore. What I can’t quite figure out is whether or not Veeam is going to be able to instigate a restoration of the machine the B&R server itself is actually running on.  Can it do that or will I have to install a second copy of Veeam on another server and import the backup before restoring it? 

I need to understand Veeam Backup Proxy servers better. I have two sites.  They are in different cities, but connected via a P2P, so on the same network.   Site one holds my Veeam Backup server, ESX hosts, VMs, primary storage, etc.   Site two contains one ESX server and a very few VMs, (one DC, file server, DHCP) and some storage. At site one, all of my backups are scheduled to run and store locally.  Then, from site one, backup copies are moved across the P2P to site 2 for "off-site" backup.  This works well.   The VMs at site 2 are set to backup to local storage at site 2, but the backup runs and was built from site 1. BUT, at site 2, I have a Veeam B&R server as well and it's listed as my proxy server.  It's not doing anything.  It handles no backups and basically just sits there. So, clearly, I don't understand WHAT a backup proxy is for or how to use it. Can some

I was going through some Veeam documentation recently and noticed a major improvement to the compression ratios offered in Veeam Backup & Replication v12.Historically (pre v12), if you were to leverage ‘High’ as your chosen compression ratio for a backup job then, relative to the ‘Optimal’ setting, you’d expect to see a 10x increase in CPU consumption, for a measly 10% increase in data compression. This has changed with v12, and you can now expect to see only a doubling of CPU consumption, for a massive 66% increase in data compression

Hello all! This post is more of a PSA regarding the latest version of the Veeam hardened repo community ISO provided by Rick Vanover on June 29th of 2023. If you’ve noticed weird network issues while setting up multiple repos on the same network using this ISO, this may help you. While working on setting up two repositories on the same network, I ran into a weird network issue where only one repository seemed to be communicating at a time, noticed after running a ping to both at the same time and seeing only one was responding at any given time. After further troubleshooting, what I noticed is that both machines had generated the same software-defined MAC address for 802.3ad bonds. This MAC address is usually uniquely generated from the machine-id to avoid conflicts, but when digging deeper I noticed that both servers also had the same machine-id. It seems that the machine-id may be baked into the ISO and as a result, any machines w

We’re preparing to implement DRO in our org and I have a few best practices questions that maybe someone here could answer:Physical or VM? Is it possible to site DRO on the same server as Enterprise Manager? Should be at the DR site, right?I’m sure I’ll have more questions come up as I read through the official Veeam docs and start poking around at a test implementation. Thanks!
