A data center consists of groups of networking and computational infrastructure that process and store information for a business in a central location. To keep it secure, businesses must employ both virtual and physical systems designed to protect the data center. In addition to protecting the organization's computational assets, specific network security measures must be implemented to prevent malware attacks and other threats from penetrating the data center. Considering the above details  how Incident management is a series of steps taken to identify, analyze, and resolve critical incidents  to protect from Ransomware attacks what are steps taken veeam 

Friends,I have a backup scheduled to automatically run daily to a network shared folder on a windows 2019 server, which I access through a share as the local admin of that server.After executing this backup, the hd where this folder is located becomes available, showing the error stating that the folder is not accessible with the warning of "incorrect function".That server is a virtual machine and runs on hyper-v.This hd that is unavailable is mounted on this virtual machine (hyper-v).For me to solve this problem I need to turn off the virtual machine and also the host, when it starts it goes back to normal.Thanks,JJ

I would be interested to know which tool for IT infrastructure you use for your or your customers environment. Here is a completely unsorted list of tools I use frequently in various environments:PowerShell with various modules like VMware PowerCLI (by the way, version 12.3 was released today) and Veeam VBR. RVtools. I think this is a widely known and used tool. Get a very detailed inventory of your vSphere environment within a few mouse-clicks. New version 4.1.2 was released yesterday. Brocade SANHealth. I think, this tool is not

Happy Friday! Time for a bit of fun, what date do you think Veeam Backup & Replication v12 will release on? I’ll accept guesses for the next week, and update this post with everyone’s guesses.Rules:1 guess per personFirst come first served on guessing the date, if someone else guessed the date you want already, pick another!Submissions close 4th NovemberWinner will be announced when v12 releases! Entries:@Stabz - 12th January 2023@victorwu - 13th January 2023@wolff.mateus - 14th January 2023@JMeixner -16th January 2023@Chris.Childerhose - 18th January 2023@HangTen416 - 23rd January 2023

Hi Team,Since few days ago I get this error message when run a job in Veeam for Microsoft 365: “JetError -1032, JET_errFileAccessDenied, Cannot access file, the file is locked or in use”And reposity state says “invalid”The repository is a SMB shared and I can access from Windows Explorar without any problem. Can you give me and advice could be the problem? Thanks.

Support for the newly released v12 (VBR/EM/ONE) is now available in the Veeam Collection for Ansible!What enhancements can you expect?Support for Windows Server 2022 Full support for PostgreSQL when performing VBR/EM installs Including local & remote DBs A new module to apply PostgreSQL performance tuning Leverages the Set-VBRPSQLDatabaseServerLimits PowerShell cmdlet Automatic enabling of the PostgreSQL pg_stat_statements extensi

Network throttling is not used in every environment. Mostly in connection with branch offices. Here it is essential to not overload the connection to the head quarter. To throttle network before, you had to configure source and destination network and time windows to limit bandwidth for backup traffic.With v12 there are new features:Generally use public addresses for target range. Option to never throttle restore activities. Select a time frame to higher the limit.

Hello everybody! Say hello to Veeam Help Center v12: https://www.veeam.com/documentation-guides-datasheets.html   

Another new feature when restoring (Windows) files is the possibility to restore only the permissions. This can be helpful if you accidentally activate inheritance for a directory.You can select single files or a directory. As usual, a summary is displayed when the job is completed. The error shown in the screenshot is due to a file that has already been deleted and for which the permissions cannot be restored.For this to work, network connection must be established. VIX does not work here.

A feature that was already available in Veeam Explorer for Active Directory now finds its way into the Windows File Level Restore: Compare with Production. This gives you the option to view the differences between the files in the restore point and the current files in production.After pressing the button, you will be asked for the user with the required permissions.Then you see state for files and directories. What you not s

Hi all, I need support to find the correct way to merge 2 VEEAM Server into one.We have VEEAM A and VEEAM B, both with their data domain. for now these two servers are separate and we want to merge A and B to have only A.In my head we have to:Configure the DD of the VEEAM B on VEEAM A and rescan it. Configure a backup job with the VMs of the VEEAM B on the VEEAM A and, during the configuration, map the backup.if we take these steps are we OK or I’m missing something?Thank you.

I have a very unstable wireless connection on an endpoint that likes to go down during periods of high use, or just whenever it feels like it. Addressing the connection issue remains its own task, but for the time being, it seems like the Veeam Agent (Agent for Microsoft Windows 5.0.3.4708) is very intolerant to any sort of network issues. When the connection inevitably goes down, the backup process will be cancelled with the error:Error: write: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host Failed to backup file. I’ve looked through the backup settings, and I did see one section titled Backup Cache which apparently is supposed to cache the backup locally until Veeam can connect to the server. Despite having this option enabled, the Agent still throws its hands up at the first sign of network trouble.Hoping there is someone here who knows a magic trick to get the Agent to tolerate unstable connections, or c

When auditors come knocking—or worse, when bad actors strike—not having accurate and complete event logs can make all the difference in how your organization survives the encounter.However, users are often understandably more focused on day-to-day operations and only think to look for this information once it’s needed (and when time is of the essence).The good news is that all the information you need—including where to find changes in Veeam server user access permissions, failed login attempts, and failed RDP connections—is available in several different locations, including:Windows Event Viewer Veeam Backup and Replication Audit logs for performed restores Veeam One Audit log The individual application log(s) Windows Event ViewerMany Veeam activities (success, warning, and failures) get logged to the Windows Event viewer by default. To see these events from within the V

I want to continue my post series about little new features in the new v12 realease. Here are 3 little things that will make administrators live a little easier.Modern Authentication for mail notificationsPrior to v12 it was just possible to set SMTP server settings for basic authentication. With v12 you can add Microsoft 365 and Google Gmail for mail notification too.  More intuitive Add Storage dialogIn older version, it was necessary to press Show more vendors when adding a storage product that is not listed. With v12, all vendors are listed in a scroll-able list.

The workstation is in a Protection Group and Agent Version 5.0.3.4708 is installed.The workstation was added over the Active Directory and the AD shows Windows 10 Professional is installed.  I also logged into the workstation and yes indeed Windows 10 Professional is installed.  Windows 11 is blocked from installing in our Network using a GPO and the Workstation was not upgraded to Windows 11 and then reset back to Windows 10.Its been showing the warning since Tuesday.  Removing it from the Protection Group and re-adding it does not help. 

Happy Friday everyone, Today’s inspiration for Fun Friday comes from Reddit. I saw a picture today of a fibre cable broken by… an arrow!https://www.reddit.com/r/nevertellmetheodds/comments/10ya76l/arrow_accidentally_pierces_fiber_utility_line_and/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Sometimes shocking events like this happen that you just wish you’d caught on camera. Reminds me of the time that I had a 2-post UPS, had just installed it into the rack, and all the cage nuts sheered simultaneously, and it crashed down onto an LCD monitor that we weren’t allowed to relocate. The best part? The hinge bent back on the monitor but was still in-tact, and the screen! Of which the bezel had taken the

I’ve randomly had two backups corrupt at one of my clients. Not sure why it happened, but they did. On one of them, I deleted from disk all of the restore points on the local datastore, and took a new full. I left the cloud data alone, and as we speak, the new restore points are peacefully transferring offsite, no issue. The second backup has been a different story… Because of the nature of the server, I decided to take a new full and leave the old data in place, just in case. The new full local backup was fine, but the offsite failed. I tried running an active full of the offsite, but same deal; the offsite failed. So now I am trying a new strategy. I took a look at the restore points and 99% were corrupted (I believe this was the offsites), so I decided to just wipe everything and start from scratch, because I think the corrupted restore points are causing issues with the new data going offsite. The offsite failures have been throwing an error I’ve never seen before.

Team,Having a hard time trying to get physical server boot from the bootable media if Secure boot enabled. Docs says it is supported, but I can boot up from the media as soon as it is disabled. See the error below. Any suggestions?  Cheers,Alex

After the initial setup of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure I’ve had two different issues.The backup jobs finished with following warning:Crash-consistent snapshot of XYZ has been created.
