How to solve the problem of deleting an encrypted repository and receiving a prompt that the SQL database is unavailable?When deleting, prompt that there is a backup record in; But this shouldn't affect it

[Problem]: Recently, a new Linux encrypted repository server has been added, which comes with two 50T partitions. Tape is directly connected to the Linux encrypted repository server; Afterwards, I added encrypted repository resources on the VBR host; Then I tried to add the tape again, but it showed an error message. Specifically。Linux encrypted repository with two IP addresses。as follows：   1、2024/7/12 9:35:59 Error    Discovering installed packages Error: Package [VeeamTapeProxy] is not allowed in 'restricted mode'  Failed to invoke rpc command 。  2、2024/7/12 9:35:59 Error    Failed to save tape server: Package [VeeamTapeProxy] is not allowed in 'restricted mode'Failed to invoke rpc command。  3、2024/7/12 9:35:59 Error    Infrastructure item save failed Error: Package [VeeamTapeProxy] is not allowed in 'restricted mode' Failed to invoke rpc command。                                                      

I am working on a backup and recovery design for a customer who have an Active-Active data centers and VMs are replicated both ways. For e.g. Few VMs replicated from DC1 --> DC2 and some from DC2 → DC1.Customer has a physical server in each DC for backup storage. My initial design was to deploy the Backup server and backup repo to be installed on the same physical host in each DC. Have Backup and CDP proxies configured as VMs on the VMware clusters to replicate and backup VMs. However, while discussing the same with the Veeam services architect, his recommendation was to deploy only a single Veeam backup server and have a backup repo in each DC. Replicate the Veeam backup server to DC2. In case DC1 is lost, recover the Backup server VM on Dc2 and then restore or recover other VMs. What are your suggestions? Which option is better? Is there another option? Thanks,Sudhir 

Hi,Anybody aware of a migration path to shift from a DataDomain without immutability to Immutable MTrees on the same box ? I guess the only way is to create a new repo and chain… and make some good calculations on free space to keep it in the same box.

Hola,Tras haber realizado un par de entradas, quiero continuar compartiendo con vosotros la configuración final de OOTBI, creación del Repo en nuestro VBR, y una tarea de prueba inmutable.Os dejo aquí las entradas anteriores: Ahora, vamos con el contenido: Ya hemos visto tanto el «unboxing» y también los pasos iniciales para tenerlo todo listo.Ahora vamos a lo «divertido», configuración del Bucket S3, configuración y adición en VBR y primeras impresiones, como siempre, a pantallazos!Accedemos a la GUI de nuestro OOTBI desde la IP del cluster creada en pasos anteriores, y ponemos credenciales, usuario objectfirst, contraseña, la que hayas definido en el proceso de instalación.Precioso Dashboard inicial, con información sencilla y crucial.Vamos a Crear nuestra Key S3, para poder luego crear el BucketAquí la tenemos, guarda bien esta información, Key ID y PasswordYa está creada y listada la keyAhora vemos en el menu lateral de navegación que nos hemos ido al menu S3 BucketsCreamos nuestro

Hello All,I have a VM on standalone Hyper-v 2019 with a backup checkpoint that I can not delete.The checkpoint was created by veeam during backup.There is no opting in the GUI to manually delete the checkpoint.I ran the backup again and it was succesfull however it did not delete the checkpoint.What can I do? the checkpoint is growing quite rapidlly.Version: Veeam Backup 10a Build: 10.0.1.4854 P20201202 

We are using Huawei storage for our VMware backup, but we noticed that Huawei storage is not supported any more: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/upgrade_vbr_byb.html?zoom_highlight=huawei&ver=120If we upgrage to V12, is there a way to backup our production vms built on Huawei storage with Snapshot ?

I wanted to create this in the hopes that in the future, someone who is experiencing this error will find this thread and see a solution. I randomly had a backup start throwing the below error:Failed to pre-process the job Error: One or more errors occurred.  Unable to apply retention policy: failed to delete backup files Error: Full storage not foundThrough some Google searching, all I could really find was to run an Active Full and start a new backup chain. I tried this, but the error still persisted. At this point, I did the only other thing I knew to do, so I told Veeam to delete the restore points for that job from disk, and I then ran a new active full. I essentially started over with a fresh dataset. I was able to get a successful backup after this.In conclusion: if you ever run into this issue, try running a new active full. If this does not resolve your issue, go to your restore points (the Disk section in VBR), and tell Veeam to delete from disk all of those restore points fo

I need to exclude an AIX job from a backup copy.Recently, we have upgraded to version 12.1The old backup copy has excluded the aix job, but on new backup copy job created we cannot exclude it.In the exclusions list we can see all job/objects from repository but aix job.Aix job is unmanaged and versión 4.1 Any idea to fix that? Thanks in advanced!!

There is one VM in our prod environment that I am unable to backup due to unable to quiesce the VM. I looked at the event log of the machine and found out Event ID 157 and Event ID 15 started occurring same time the backup started failing. Looks like there are phantom disks seen by the OS. Device Manager shows 2 drives and this is correct. I have storage migrated the VM but the error keeps on occurring meaning it is with the VM itself. System scan (sfc) not showing any error.  What are your thoughts on this?  

Hi, I have a customer where we are moving them from two veeam servers to one. From a server and proxy perspective I can delete and then add them to the new primary Veeam server however I was just wondering about jobs/backup copies etc and if there’s a way to migrate over.Any suggestions on config migration options, tips and tricks will be welcome.thanks

One of our customers is facing an issue with there file sever.the file server is replication from primary to secondary. when the file server fail back to primary site it take around 12 hours. the file server size is 3 TB.how can we failback the server in less time. 

Hello Community,I successfully deployed SOBR ( Performance > Capacity > Archive). The archive tier is in Azure. For the archive tier, I am experiencing that the speed of moving backups from the archive to the capacity tier is 50MB/s. I selected a high-capacity VM in the VBR, specs are below however the speed does not exceed more than 50MB/s. Size - Standard F8s v2vCPUs - 8RAM - 16 GiBSo I have a question for the community is 50MB/s is usual speed for Azure archive appliance? If not than what is your recommendation to increase the transfer speed.If I use private endpoints,  will it assist in increasing the speed? I am currently communicating via public IP.

Hi all, a customer with a physical node with SLES for SAP needs to migrate the system to new hardware.Unfortunately I don't have much experience on SAP, and not much information on OS and software versions at the moment either.The OS is installed on local disks of the node, while the db data resides on external storage (SAN).Is it suggested to use VAL to migrate via volume restore?What are the caveats and/or points to watch out for?Can application consistency be achieved?ThanksMarco S.

Hello All.About 5-10 years we were hacked and had ransomware. Installed the latest edition of Veeam and with the malware detection enabled. It now found 20 instances. Some are pointing to certain directories and I can recognize the names of the files and they have the .wallet extension (this appears to be from the old hack I had) when I go to the location of the folder and enable show all files and folders I still do not see these files listed.  I therefore deleted the entire folder (it was junk anyways) and today a day later it detected the same malware in the folder that was deleted yesterday.   I’m trying to figure out how this is detecting items in folders i erased.  Anything tips?

Hey ! Do you know if it’s possible to change the Settings Related to Veeam for M365 Log Files ?I found a KB for VBR but nothing for M365. https://www.veeam.com/kb1825Thanks.

Hi All. How many of you are using Linux Repositories in your own production environments? Is there any thing you would change or do differently right now?For those of you who have made the switch did you notice any performance differences? I have many SAN’s arriving my way in the next few weeks. Many PB’s of storage.  For Veeam I’m going to be using NVMe flash at our production.  We want the ability to run a good amount of prod from backups for labs, testing, fast recovery in a critical event.  I also have tape jobs running air gapped copies at multiple sites. . .  For DR, it’s less common to run out there so it’s not going to be quite as fast on the storage side.  As I’m using SAN’s, I need to attach servers. Currently with Windows servers things have been great, but the idea of immutable storage is nice.   This gives me an opportunity to potentially change 1 or both sites even to Linux . Currently now I have an all in 1 setup at each site.  It actually works good, but running Proxy,
