SQL Transaction log backup seems to be failing with "Failed to perform internal backup."We just did a big repair of one of our DBs. When I re-enable the backup job (with SQL transaction log backup), it started failing with the following error. Failed to perform internal backup (DBName): Code = 0x80040e31 Code meaning = IDispatch error #3121 Source = Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 Description = Query timeout expired COM error: Code: 0x80040e31 We can see data being moved as shown in the Report so is the Transaction Log backup really failing or it is just doing catch up with the large change? I’m sure if we run a full backup or possibly change the log backup interval to longer, this will resolve the error. Thanks.

Hello.The question is related to adding S3-compatible object storage. Company-developed proprietary BLOB stores in ceph have their own implementation of the S3 surface. When adding S3, you can select a bucket, but when you select folders inside the bucket or when creating a new STORAGEClass error, the storage class uses erasure code.The question is what storageclass does veeam12 use?! since it worked on version veeam 10.How can I see through the logs which storageclass is trying to connect to the storage?  

I have more than 2000 Entra ID users but only have 900 M365 subscription licenses.When we setting the VDC to backup all tenant, will the VDC only take any user who have active license in M365?

Over the last several years Microsoft has been moving into Microsoft 365 with their services. With this migration they have introduced many new features into the eco system to make day to day communication and processes smoother. In this same transition Microsoft has also moved to depreciate legacy technologies for newer features that are purpose built for the ecosystem and modern data communication. We are in the process of what is now the second depreciation cycle of legacy technologies in Microsoft 365. The first being when on-prem services did not make it to the cloud and now with the deprecation of legacy APIs on January 31, 2023. Its important to note that depreciated does not mean these services are nasally going to be shut off but further support by Microsoft and third-party access to these services will also be limited if at all. In this case, services in Microsoft 365 that did not make the cut, by Microsoft, to be coded into the Microsoft Graph API with modern APIs will no

Today, I tried to restore a file for the Linux server, it failed and the error message was “Unable to obtain IP address for host ‘ubuntu2310”I check the Log from Restore Session, it show “Failed to mount restore point. Unable to obtain IP addresses for host ubuntu2310”Check the DNS records and it looks good.Ping the host from the VBR Server and it looks good as well.Check the hostname from the Linux server to ensure the h

I am currently trying to backup 2 physical servers with Veeam.The target servers are running RHEL 6.6 (2.6.32-504.1.3.el6.x86_64).When I try to include them in a Protection Group to create a backup job, I am encountering an issue where one server succeeds and the other fails.In the Veeam Console UI, it shows up as failed with the message "The server has closed the connection." When checking the log related to the Rescan Task, the main error message is "Failed to upload package file from "D:\veeam\Backup\Packages\veeamdeployment-12.2.0.334-1.x86_64.rpm" to "/tmp/veeamdeployment-12.2.0.334-1.x86_64.rpm". Timeout: 10800 sec, mode: 644 (Veeam.Backup.Common.CRegeneratedTraceException)".It seems unrelated to the fact that the file upload to the server is not possible.This is because the situation is as follows:- Use root account when backing up Veeam- Veeam backup server and backup target server are located on the same network- SELinux an

Dear Expert!I need your assistance with the Veeam Backup issue. I tried numerous times to resolve this issue, but none of my ideas appear to be effective. Could you please provide any suggestions for resolving this problem?Error Message: Unexpected packet type: [%1]. Unable to retrieve next block transmission command. Number of already processed blocks: [997]. Failed to download disk. read: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host Failed to upload disk. Agent failed to process method {DataTransfer.SyncDisk}.Thank you for help!!  

I try to restore my bare metal server using veeam recovery media to VMware esxi.When i try to restore i got warning ‘OS disk in backup uses MBR disk’, then i check the created VM using EFI.I try change from EFI to BIOS then do same thing, then the recovery media say different warning. The waring now say ‘OS disk in backup use GPT disk.So why with same backup file, the warning message is different?

Over the years we have encountered lots of situations where other engineers disable a job with the intention of returning later of after a day or so to enable the job, but this never happens.There are 100+ reasons to disable a job but lots of times, a job is disabled with the intention of enabling it shortly after. We just do not have the correct option to use.It would be nice if instead of disabling a job we had the option to PAUSE FOR 30m, 60m, 90m, 1day, 2days, 1week, custom length. -MarioPS. No need to expand on what happens when disaster hits and a job had been disabled weeks ago…

Hi Veeam community, is it possible to backup AWS Storage Gateway Volume Gateway EBS volumes using Veeam for AWS 8.0 or Veeam BR 12 or any Veeam product for that matter?

i am trying free tier of Veeam, Proxmox and AWSI have a Proxmox VE community edition installed on an old PC 5TB Hard drive, I would like to try to backup a ec2 instance from AWS Free tier and store all data to my Proxmox, Veam VM is installed in my proxmoxis this possible 100% no cost ?any document, links or suggestion for me to test this situation is appreciated.

Is it possible using Veeam to create a bootable clone of a system disk to a second local drive? I don’t want to have to use recovery media to restore the OS.I have a server with two physical spinning disks that are not RAIDed (can’t rebuild the server to do this) so I want to create a bootable clone. There are numerous free tools out there, but as we already use Veeam I thought I’d find out if it can do this first. Thanks

When we add user from Entra ID, how long this user will be shown in VDC?I try add new created uses on Entra ID as VDC admin user but even wait more than 10 minutes, the new user still not showing.

Over the holidays our Veeam QA/DEV teams working at Veeam speed validated AOS 7.0. There is no new enhancements in this version for VBN AHV v7. It was requested by our joint customers. We are also validating AOS 6.8.1.6 which is TBD at the moment. The updated AOS is now reflected in our VBN AHV v7 user guide link below😀.Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV v7 User Guide Note: Veeam has validated AOS 6.8.1.6. Here is the Veeam forum post - https://forums.veeam.com/nutanix-ahv-f51/aos-6-8-1-6-t97478.htmlThanks,Pete

Trying to upgrade Veeam from 12.0 to 12.1, and the original installer has left. How would we reset the credentials so we can perform the update? We thought our service account was used but apparently not. All attempts to update have failed so far. Part of the issue is most NASA accounts require PIV card authentication, and I don’t know if that plays well with a Veeam update. The service account is PIV exempt. The current version is pushing an old version of the kmod veeamsnap that won’t work with the current RH kernel. Why don’t we just rebuild the kmod in the fly every time a new kernel arrives like other kmods seem to work? Like CUDA for example.

Dear Community,Greetings! I’m reaching out to see if anyone has encountered a similar issue. When I click on the GCP appliance in Veeam and select Rescan, I receive the following error:Could anyone help explain what this error means and how to resolve it?Looking forward to your insights and suggestions!      

Anyone know why my VBR server log using . (dot) and use 24hours format in the time ?The server actually use 12 hours format with : for the time.

In today's digital landscape, ensuring the availability and integrity of your data during disasters is paramount. A robust disaster preparedness plan for your backup solutions is essential to safeguard against data loss and minimize downtime. This article will give an overview about  best practices for disaster preparedness specific to backup solutions, including offsite backups, site-redundancy, and failover strategies. 1. EncryptionImportance of Encryption: Encryption is essential for protecting your backup data from unauthorized access and ensuring compliance with data protection regulations. Encrypted backups safeguard sensitive information even if the physical media or files are compromised.Best Practices:Data Encryption: Encrypt data both at rest and in transit. Use strong encryption algorithms such as AES-256 to secure your backups. Key Management:

Hi,  I have a problem with the transaction log backup.I have 4 SQL servers in one backup job.  The full backup and incremental backup are running fine.  However, the transaction log backup stop running on Nov 30.  They were running fine before it stopped.  I also have configuration set to run the transaction log backup every 8 hours and it doesn’t run neither.Here is what i have done and what I observe so far:1.  I also did something that’s suggested on the internet forum, disable and then enable the backup job.  However, the transaction log backup is still not triggered/started.2.  It seems like the transaction log backup never starts after the failure on Nov 30.  So there is no report for the transaction log backup after Nov 30.  3.  The statistic page shows the transaction log backup job failed, not pending.  So, apparently, the transaction log job is stopped or shutdown and won’t re-run4.  The Veeam server was rebooted last Saturday a

Hello everyone. A costumer of ours have a problem after the 27/12. Until this day all the backup is working fine with the incremental on the most of them take 10-20 min, sudenly on the 27/12 all the backups take to long to complete. Like 1+ hour when 1 week before the same backup is taking 10 min. On the most of them i see a 99% bottleneck on the source but when i go to investigate the source machine everythink is showing fine. ANd this situation with the bottleneck is not showing on all the backups, on some the data is look fine ( like what is looking before 27/12 ) like 40 source, 15 proxy 20 network etc but and on this jobs the timers is extremely long. Any suggestion?PS: That start a day, there no change on the infastructure or anythink that can start a befavior like this Best Regards
