New Fresh Start while retaining the old

So our company is growing, and planning for the future we are moving our VEEAM to a new server, and of course decommission the old one. With this move we want to start fresh, but retain access to the old repository. Is there a certain process we can do, so that the old jobs will not be migrated to the new server, thus reducing clutter, and allow us to restore from the old repository?The reason for this is the backup job infrastructure was created, and adapted to a fast growing company so it was sort of a reactionary solution. We now have the storage and plan on moving to the cloud. This will hopefully allow us to move away from our aging tape drive a good bit.Thank you all for your help in this matter.

What topics would you want covered in a third edition of my book?

As many of you know I have written two books on Veeam and they have done well. Since going to VeeamON this year I am actually excited to write a third edition now. So based on what you have tested with the Beta what would you like to see covered?I am waiting for the what's new document so I can plan things out but if there a few topics of interest I will try to incorporate them. 😁

Fun Friday: What's your tech/office space setup?

Happy Friday from me to you all today! Today’s Fun Friday is a random one. I moved home this week and last night I was putting together my new office and thought to myself, I wonder if everyone else has as much random tech as me? So my question to you all is, what does your workspace/computer space look like?Hasn’t got to be pictures, but just little things like, how many screens? Any servers/lab tech?Favourite gadget in there such as a streamdeck or a ring light etc? For me, my favourite little gadget is my Crash Bandicoot “Cable Guy” that holds my Xbox controller!I’ve got 2x 28” screens and I’m really happy I finally have a long enough wall that both my screens can sit next to each other instead of at a near 90 degree angle! (It’s not good for the spine to twist that much in your chair constantly!) And because of this longer wall I no longer have my server lab under my feet so I can actually STRETCH!!!

Throttling for internet backups

We are beginning to put together a cloud based backup infrastructure, so we want to insure that we are leaving some bandwidth available for our employees, and not hobbling our internal backups. I have been doing some light research, and was wondering if there was a way to throttle only the backups that go up to the cloud, while leaving the on premise back up to disk jobs running at full. I have seen how to setup the global rules, but they seem to apply to all jobs unless I am mistaken. Thank you in advance for any advise you can give me, or point me in the right direction.

Enterprise Manager Licensing Push not working

Customer running v10 on 3 existing VBR servers and Enterprise Manager. EM has perpetual socket license.Replaced perpetual socket license on the EM server with new instance license.Opened up all three backup server consoles, and opened up the License dialog. All three showed perpetual licenses still.When Update or Install or Remove were clicked, the warning came up that the licensing was managed by an EM Server, did we want to continue? Cancelled this.Backup Service and Guest Catalog services were restarted: no change.Backup server was restarted: no change.Removed backup server from EM server; opened up license dialog on VBR, removed license so it is now Community Edition. Started Database collection. Closed and reopened dialog box on VBR, no change.Finally just put the new Instance license on the VBR. The other two servers are still showing perpetual, although successive database collections all showed successful connections to the backup servers.1. How should license updates behave wh

Resizing Virtul Disks: Impact on Backup Jobs

I am striking out on my Google-Fu and Forums-Fu ! I can't find a definitive result for what happens to backups when the source VMDK is resized (larger). Can anyone point me to the correct link for a customer to review? I think the backup job runs a new full because the block map changes. But for Replication, a rescan of the disk supposedly prevents resending the whole disk.

Bare-metal recovery from Agent Windows/Linux compatibility

I didn’t see anywhere a discussion about this, so I say to myself: ok, let’s try.I tried a bare-metal recovery on a laptop I use for testing purposes, an HP 250 last gen laptop. On that I installed a Ubuntu 22.04 and then a copy of Veeam Agent (last version, of course).Did a backup (not encrypted) on USB drive and then I created a recovery-USB from a patched ISO linux ver with drivers.After that, I installed Windows 10 21H2 on that notebook, with drivers and Veeam Agent 5.0.3.This time I didn’t create a backup, but just a USB for bare-metal recovery.Lastly, I remove every partition on that laptop. What I wanted to test was the possibility of running a bare-metal recovery using a USB created from a different OS than backups.I expected process to go smoothly, but that’s not the case.What I got was this error. Ok, two USB recovery media are different, but Veeam backup isn’t compatible between versions?(screens are for example, not taken from my test enviroiment) After that, I tried to o

Enable backup file encryption

I have a quick question regarding enabling backup file encryption. I would like to start using this option, but not clear on how it is being used once it is enabled.It appears that Veeam B&R continues to use the selected encryption password (in my case loss protection is disabled) during backups and restores.If someone were to gain access to the NAS that I am backing up to and attempted to restore a VM, they would need to have the password to restore the VM or guest files correct?If I do a test file level restore from an encrypted VM, I am not prompted to enter a password during the restore process.Thank you in advanceDon

Free Veeam products for backing up single physical server

I used to be able to use the Veeam Agent software to back up a single physical Server 2019 server but when I went to the Veeam website last week it looks like the Veeam Agent software is no longer able to be used to back up physical servers for free. Is there still a version of the Veeam Agent software or another Veeam product that I can be used to back up a single physical Server 2019 server for free? I need to use a free solution until my organization is able to purchase another Veeam license.

Broadcom acquires VMware

Probably you’ve heard the rumors or news already, but today Broadcom announced that it’s going to acquire VMware.https://investors.broadcom.com/news-releases/news-release-details/broadcom-acquire-vmware-approximately-61-billion-cash-and-stockI personally don’t know what to think about this, but I don’t have any positive feelings about the future of VMware. After they were split of from Dell I was hoping that things would get better, especially their quality. But now being merged with Broadcom (they’re going to rebrand as “VMware”) I’m not sure what we can expect from them.What do you say about this? Anything positive or negative about this?Update 26.06.2022:Broadcom did publish a new blog post. It doesn't contain much information, and rather feels like an answer to all the negative comments: https://www.broadcom.com/blog/broadcom-vmwareAnd the EU is going to do an antitrust investigation and could probably block the acquisition: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/06/broadcom-take

Veeam & SQL Server 2012, The Approaching End of Life & How to Migrate

It’s that time of the IT lifecycle again, where we talk upgrades and decommissioning.On the 12th July 2022, Microsoft SQL Server 2012 will go End of Life. Not just to extended/security patch support, but completely out of support.So, why am I talking about Veeam? If you’ve got an installation of Veeam that utilised a SQL Server Express database, and you installed Veeam prior to 9.5 Update 4, odds are you’ve got a SQL Server 2012 Express database. This creates a security risk as of the next Microsoft patch cycle, scheduled for the 12th July 2022.I would also like to state that whilst this isn’t the focus of the article, if you’ve got a Veeam Backup & Replication or Veeam ONE environment that’s not running v11 yet, you really need to upgrade, as everything prior is at end of fix. Which version of SQL Server should I migrate to?Unless you are limited by the operating system support for SQL Server 2019, I don’t recommend going for anything older. This is because SQL Server 2017, whils
