 In this demonstration, we will walk through the steps required to install Veeam Backup for GCP and integrate it with Veeam Backup & Replication using a plug-in.With Google Cloud Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication, you can add Veeam Backup for Google Cloud appliances to the backup infrastructure and perform the following operations from the Veeam Backup & Replication console:Start and stop backup policies, monitor session statistics, and perform configuration backup and restore. View created snapshots and image-level backups. Restore VM instances, individual persistent disks, and guest OS files and folders. Restore VM instances to AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Nutanix AHV. Perform Instant Recovery of VM instances to VMware vSphere, Hyper-V environments, and Nutanix AHV clusters. Restore all Cloud SQL instances and specific databases.

Hi Team,The question is based on the article Veeam Service Provider Console 8.0 Deployment Guide’ ( Veeam Service Provider Console 8.0 (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vac/deployment/ports.html?ver=80). Communications from Veeam Service Provider Console Server to Veeam Cloud Connect server the on TCP  port range 49152 to 65535. As per a Veeam support team person, they mentioned that, it is better to open around 50-100 ports to facilitate potential requests between the servers.Just wondering the best method to assign the ports through the firewall. Tried using the ‘netstat -aon’ to identify any listening state ports. To facilitate the connec

This is a Powershell Script that can be used to install and configure Veeam AIX Agent without needing to log into the AIX system. Can be because of lack of AIX expertise or a large number of AIX systems.  https://github.com/VeeamHub/powershell/tree/master/BR-AgentAIX-Install

The new official capacity calculator for O365 is now live at https://calculator.veeam.com/vbo/You can either connect it to your real account and retrieve needed data or manually input data:If you love the full details you can click the “Show details” button:This will definitely make it a lot easier to estimate capacity use, but also size VBO servers and proxies, just click on the little “i” icon next to infrastructure sizing for even more information like CPU/memory:

hi Veeam CommunityI have a veeam backup server that is physically installed on an hpe server and the backup repositories are also local. There are 3 drives that are 18 TB each.Now we want to replace the new server with new hardware and my question is, what is the best way to migrate to the new server?There are about 60 terabytes of data on local drivesHow can we do this with minimal downtime or disruption?Does anyone have any experience with this, I'd be happy to hear any suggestions or advice you may have

Just a quick teaser of a project I’ve been working on since receiving my RPi 4B last week. I CAN’T OVERSTATE THIS ENOUGH, THIS IS NOT TO BE USED FOR, AND MUST NEVER BE USED WITHIN A PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT. THIS IS A FUN PROJECT ONLY. I’ve managed to get Veeam’s binaries running on the Raspberry Pi, but I don’t mean the backup agent, I mean the actual Veeam Installer Service and Veeam Transport Service components.I’ve managed so far to create backup repositories directly on the RPi, though I’m having issues getting IO to flush properly to attached storage, causing backup jobs to fail.The VMware backup proxy process incorrectly identifies the Raspberry Pi as 32-bit when it’s running a 64-bit OS, and is reporting itself as x86_64.But I’ve managed to successfully use the RPi for arguably the best use-case, as a super cheap SoC for a ROBO NAS Gateway. You might be thinking at this point I’v

Hello all, is there any possibility to have report directly from Veeam? We have Veaam v12.2 for really small environment and Installing/configuring VeeamONE is a big hammer for this nail.I would like to have same report as you got when you right click on completed backup job “last24 hours” and click on report. I didn’t find anything that can do that automatically to file.thanks,Ladislav.

Hi everybody!Exist some configuration to use a current SAN infrastructure to send backups from Solaris agent to Repository server (in Windows) ? Thanks a lot for your answers and regards.

I have a 2 node ESXi 7.0.3 host setup and running Veeam v12 to backup 5 VMs to a NFS share (all production VMs exist on node A, NFS share is BSD VM on node B).  The thought is that currently all production VMs can run on a single host and a backup copy of those can be created in a VM on host B.  Each server has qty 2 10Gb network interfaces and I have connected both NICs in a port group and virtual switch along with creating a vmkernel interface on both hosts referencing the correct port group.  After reconfiguring VMWare, I rescanned both ESXi hosts in Veeam and started the backup job.  I am not convinced that the process is using the new 10Gb link between the 2 hosts for the transport process.  What am I missing?

 i enabled malware detection, the next day an alarm went up on the ubuntu Hardened backup repository server where immutable backups are saved. Backup jobs are " enable backup encryption" I suspect this is the cause of the false positive. Ran the secure scan Linux version -scanAV which with - YARAScan of 12.1 comes out clean .thanks to the invaluable guidance of @SteveHeart 

Hi CommunityLooking for a DR option that would help us leverage Cloud storage. We have an on-prem VBR server with a pair of local repositories. We would like to backup a portion of our our Local VM infrastructure to S3 as part of our DR strategy and in the even of a DR incident leaving our primary data center offline we would like to be able to restore these instances from S3 to EC2. 2 problems i see instantly are the lack of access to the backup server if the primary datacenter is offline and the VMs communicating unless we use the same network segment on EC2 when we spin up the environment. Anyone see a way to do this short of replicating all the needed VMs to EC2 in an offline state?I believe this can be done with replication of the VMs to EC2 and the file shares to S3 Active and even orchestrated but I was hoping for a less expensive option as well.

Hi Team, Am facing issues uninstalling VeeamBackup&Replication_11.0.1.1261_20220302.Control panel does not show any Veeam program but when I search through cmd it shows below components. When I try to remove VBR Server is gives error unable to connect to SQL server. Value cannot be null. Parameter name TargetHost. Could you please help if anyone has faced and resolved this kind of issue. 

hi veeam communityIn version 12.1, extraordinary security features are offered, one of which is Early Threat Detection.I want to know what is the out-of-band restore point that is marked in yellow in the picture and has anyone used this feature and has any experience about it? 

Customer has 3TB (500GB x 6 CPU) from VUL. They need to add additional 2TB. Capacity is a lot cheaper then VUL but I don't know is this going to be stacked or is it doable to combine these licenses ?This is essentials version of the Veeam.

The PowerShell script to automate the upgrade for Veeam Backup & Replication & Enterprise Manager to v12.1 is now available on VeeamHub! For more details on the script itself, I recommend reading the documentation on VeeamHub.https://github.com/VeeamHub/powershell/tree/master/BR-UpgradeV12.1 If you’re familiar with my previously written upgrade script for v12, here’s a summary of enhancements in this latest release:Added support for new silent upgrade process available in version 12.1 Veeam Backup & Replication

Hello together,how can I reverse a hardened Repository on Ubuntu 64 to a normal repository?Thank youRalph

Hello.I have an issue with booting from Recovery Media created with Windows Free Agent V6.The Server HPE DL345 GEn11 is running Windows Server 2022.When i try to boot from ILO Boot starts. I get the message Press any Key to boot. Than it immdiately switchs back to BIOS boot settings.Same Problem with booting from RUFUS Stick.On DL380 Gen10 with Intel CPU it works fine.Booting from Server 2022 ISO is working on the AMD EPYC is working fine.I created the Recovery Image twice. And added the USED Drivers as otopnal drivers too. No Changes.Booting the AMD from a different WRONG Recovery Image (Z2 Workstation) boots “Press any key to start ...) and freezes the Server at once. Any ideas?Greetings from Germany.  

Hello,Today I try to update Postgre SQL and when I execute the installer, I got the error : prerunscript.command.line.errorI go to the log file on path : c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\2 and find file "installbuilder_installer.log" It contains the reason : Windows Script Host Access Is Disabled on This Machine. Contact Your Administrator for DetailsThis happens because I follow the Veeam recommendation about hardening the server -> Disable VBS.So, to update postgreSQL, first, it's needed to update the registry key at : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\SettingsEnabled should be updated to 1No reboot is required, just need to execute again the postgreSQL setup again and after the installation complete, update the value back to 0.I create this topic because I think this could be mentionned somewhere on the documentation / forum / here.  

IntroductionVeeam Capacity Tier allows the addition of an object storage-based extent to a Veeam Scale-Out Backup Repository (SOBR). This object storage could be on-premises or could be hosted by a cloud provider. Regardless of your chosen platform, Capacity Tier provides a cost-effective way to tier backup data from on-prem 'Performance' extents to Object for longer-term storage.We encourage you to read and understand the Product documentation on Capacity Tier at https://helpcenter.veeam.comThere are a number of reasons why switching Capacity Tier vendor might make sense to you. Perhaps there was a change in your corporate strategic alliances, or perhaps a simple cost analysis has revealed that deeper savings could be found elsewhere.Switching object vendor comes with a few challenges:You need to keep your old Capacity tier around until its retention expires and you want to be able to restore from it as well.

Hi everyone…I have deployed a new backup repository which is going to be replaced by the old one.By which Veeam features I should use to copy those backup data to the new storage?Maybe replication or backup copy job? Backup source is mixture of bear metal, VM, DB, app etc. in multiple OS
