Demystifying Veeam’s Backup Copy Feature – Part II, Short-Term Retention

If you missed the first part of this 3-part series, you can read it here. In this post, I’ll be discussing the Backup Copy Job Short-Term Retention Policy. The main purpose of Short-Term Retention is to create additional copies of your Backups, whether on- or off-site, meeting at least the “3” part of the “3-2-1 Rule”.In previous Veeam versions, the Short-Term Retention Policy was referred to as the Simple Retention Policy. As with previous Veeam versions, the Short-Term Policy will retain using the Forever Forward Incremental method to copy the data to target, as long as Long-Term Retention (GFS) Policy is not enabled. What this means is this: during the initial run of the Copy job, a Full backup restore point (.vbk ) will be created, either 1 file or multiple files. For per-VM, a Full file will be created of every VM copied. If not enabled, one Full is created containing all VM data in a single file. Subsequent Copy Job runs will consist of Incremental restore point files ( .vib ) co

Moving VSphere hosts with Veeam Replication

One thing that I find really useful if you’re moving a small VM for a small customer that doesn’t have a VCenter to a new Vsphere host is to just simply connect the the two ESXi hosts in Veeam:Add both hosts in the Virtual Infrastructure Create a replication job between the old host and the new host If it runs rather slow let it run for a few days. Determine a small outage window where you’ll have the customer stop accessing data on the old host. Do one more replication job. Shut the old VM down in the old host Power on the new server on the new host.It’s important to not use the replica_ prefix or suffix just for the sake of simplicity. A lot of times focus is on larger customers and how to vmotion this or that but sometimes it’s nice to think about how small customers can be served too. Using Veeam for that is a life saver.

Question about copyjob functionality

Hi, everyone! I have a quick question about coypjob intervals. If I have my copyjob set to 1 day starting at 4am, does that mean that the copy starts at 4am and runs until 4am the next day and then just starts over? I am seeing some warnings about things not being copied over in the copy interval. I’m a little confused on how this works. How can I make the copy interval longer?

Hyper V checkpoints appear when using Veeam B&R11 Replication

Hi All - Hope well.I was hoping some one could shed some light on this. It seams when I replicate VM’s from our production server to the DR server, hyper V also makes a snap shot.What is the correct way to start the replicas? I imagine just for the replication job to stop and then start the VM’s normally on Hyper V without using Hyper V snapshots?What is the correct procedure? - I would also like to use the fail-back option so I dont want to hyperV snap shots to upset the process. Please find the image attached. Thanks all!

VBO365 vs SaaS competitors : 10 reasons why to choose VBO365

Hi all,As a Veeam partner I often get the question from customers and colleagues : why choose VBO365 and not one of the so many SaaS competitors?That question is not so easy to answer, but there are a lot of reasons.I’ll try to give some reasons why I find that VBO365 has advantages relative to other SaaS competitors. Flexible : You can install VBO365 on a VM or physical server on-premises.You can use regular storage or an object-storage appliance.Also you can install it on a VM in the public cloud and using object storage as the best choice (costs and quantity of storage). Proximity : Because you can install it on-premises or as a partner on your own hardware in a datacenter, you can deliver proximity instead of used storage of a competitor in a region far away from your location.In Belgium the proximity is an important reason for a lot of customers. Several flexible restore options : With VBO365 you have many, many restore options, not only to existing O365 resources (mailbox, onedri

SOBR Resource Requirements

I have a server with Direct attached storage utilized as a repository server. We have 3 partitions that are each configured as a repository in Veeam. We have combined all 3 into a SOBR. For the max concurrent tasks, do I need to divide the total concurrent tasks by the number of repositories since they each could be utilized at the same time.Hard Numbers: I have 16 concurrent tasks max due to Ram limitations on my Repository server. With the 3 repositories, do I configure each to have 5 max concurrent tasks or can i configure all 3 to have 16?Explanation on the reason for the solution would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Poll : immutable object storage appliances

Hi all,This week no top-10 or top-15 or a best practice from me, but a poll this time ;-)Since object-storage is more and more interesting for putting backups onto, I want to implement object-storage appliances using SOBR capacity tier at our biggest customers and also on our VCC infrastructure. This especially for having an airgapped/immutable copy of the primary backups.Requirements it must meet, are : it has to be IMMUTABLE object-strorage, so implementing the object-lock functionality it needs to be VEEAM READY (must be on the list Veeam Alliance Partner Technical Programs) it has to be an appliance (so no need to use Linux CLI, but just a user-friendly web-interface, an all-in-one box, all included) easy scalable cost-effectiveI think on Cloudian, Nutanix and Quantum object storage appliances.What is your personal expericence with those and others regarding : cost-effective? easy scalable - modular? what is the minimum setup? number of appliances? what is the minimum storage? expe
