How to Backup Server from Hetzner via VBR

Hello,I have a problem with configuring the Backup Job.We have one server hosted on Hetzner and I need to backup it just once and restore it.I don’t know what could be the prerequisites for this, do I need to expose our VBR ports to the Hetzner?Currently I manage to create protection group, added Hetzner server without any problems, rescaning is working, but when I try to create a backup job using Veeam agent it fails with the following error message:3/4/2024 14:03:40 :: Failed to send backup job configuration to X Error: Failed to update backup job Managed by agent job name: Agent Backup Policy 3.Invalid job configuration.Connection problems.Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.Failed to establish connection: no valid IP addresses were found.A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond VBR IP Addres:10005

VMDK ID Changed

Hello, I need some advise if the VMDK ID is changed and Veeam is not able to find those VM anymore. Recently had to rebuild the host and add VM from the datastore, however their VMDK ID has been changed. Veeam is not longer detecting those VMs. I tired remapping the VM, however, its not continuing on previous chain and creating new restore point.Any advise if we can do anything about it?

Oh No! Someone deleted my KMS Key!

Recently @Julia F Morgado and I have released a blog post talking on the Best Practices to a secure AWS environment.https://www.veeam.com/blog/aws-security-best-practices.htmlIn this guide, we emphasize the significance of data encryption and utilizing the AWS Key Management Service (KMS). Encrypting data is crucial to thwart unauthorized access, and when combined with immutability, it not only protects against data theft and misuse but also guards against the malicious deletion of data.There’s also a third risk even with those two practices that I would like to share, which is the KMS key being deleted. Say you’ve done everything right and encrypted your immutable backups with a key, then your production and/or other copy of the data (3-2-1 rule, right?) have been attacked, locked or encrypted, and someone have deleted the KMS key to your backups, how will you recover?Andreas Wittig from Cloudonaut wrote an interesting scenario where a combination of some pre-conditions could lead to

Start Backup when USB drive is inserted

Hi, I vaguely recall seeing an option where a backup job is automatically started when a USB drive containing a backup repository is plugged into the server. I can’t seem to find it again…was I dreaming?Thanks, Hammer

Resetting CBT per job settings for active fulls

We relocated one of our VMs to another backup job and noticed that the job completion status information for the VM is “Resetting CBT per job settings for active fulls”. Our backup jobs are configured with incremental backups and one synthetic full backup per week. I am curious if we move one of the VMs to another backup job, does Veeam automatically perform an active full on it? Thanks Pete

Veeam options for longer term copies

Running Veeam v12 and currently backing up for 14 days to a local HPE storeonce.I want to also put a longer term copy into an AWS S3 bucket for about 1 year. Probably once a month.The best option I think is to perform a backup copy, not via a SOBR.If via copy is there a compatibility issue creating a copy job from storeonce catalyst repos to S3 repos? thoughts?

Random failures on new setup

So we are deploying Veeam for ourselves and I have been fighting with it for a few days. Our setup is: Veeam server - Non-Domain joinedVeeam Proxy - Linux with XFS volume attached via RDM in VMwareA scale out Repo setup that is backed by the xfs volume from the Linux machineOur primary Altera arrays are also added into Veeam under the storage Infrastructure and i am able to browse the snapshots on them and perform restores. Both servers are located in the same site/network. The storage is coming from a LUN on an Altera Hybrid array that is presented to both hosts in the esxi cluster.We have a mix of domain joined, non-domain joined windows machines along with some random Linux boxes. I just have a simple nightly backup job created that has all of our servers included in it. I have selected the Linux proxy for the backup proxy in the job which then pulls in the Scale-out Backup Repo. In the advanced settings everything is default with the exception of changing the compression level

vSphere 8.0 U2 is Released: Reminder not to Update immediately

Morning everyone, VMware vSphere 8.0 U2 is now available, with improvements to lifecycle management, AI workloads, and DevOps amongst others!https://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2023/09/vsphere-8-update-2-now-available.html?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=vsphere-8-update-2-now-available A quick reminder to all, Veeam Backup & Replication v12 only supports up to vSphere 8.0 U1 currently. Veeam can’t start their validation until the code is available so we’ll now see Veeam begin their testing process. You can check the status of vSphere platform support here: https://www.veeam.com/kb2443Veeam typically target vSphere platform support within 90 days of release, so with the betas of VBR 12.1 functionality appearing online, I’d guess we won’t see 8.0 U2 support until 12.1 ships unless that encounters massive delays. So yes, wait for Veeam to support vSphere 8.0 U2 before you upgrade, there’s no point having all this new functionality if you can’t protect any of your work

Veeam Backup Service completly stuck randomly

I learned a lot during the last few weeks about Veeam and I am kind of exited about this software. I resolved almost all problems, but there is still one issue I cant get a grip on. Ich have several backup jobs in a chain. No parallel Jobs. I have a lightning fast proxy (Veeam suggests a maximum of 24 parallel jobs).My persisting promlem is, that jobs get stuck absolutly randomly. Sure, after hours the stuck job fails, goes into retry1 and finishes successfull. But thats not satisfying… Is there anything I missed about jobs getting stuck? Just for your information: Jobs launch and run. They get stuck somewhere after 20%, 50% or 90%. So abolutly random… I recognized that the “veeam backup service” gets completly frozen. This service cant be stopped by anything else than a server restart.

Unveiling Cyber Threats: Harnessing YARA and Veeam for Malware Detection!

Greetings, everyone! Today we'll delve into the art of identifying basic file Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), crafting YARA rules to sniff out malicious actors, and seamlessly integrating these rules into Veeam Backup & Replication to safeguard our backups against potential malware threats. But before we dive in, let's take a moment to understand YARA and what its for. YARAYARA is an open-source malware classification tool used to identify and classify malware or suspicious files based on its signatures or rules. It is a powerful and flexible tool that allows users to create rules matching their organization’s needs or targeting specific threats. Moreover, YARA rules are like a piece of programming language, they work by defining a number of variables that contain patterns found in a sample of malware. If some or all of the conditions are met, depending on the rule, then it can be used to successfully identify a piece of malware. Indicators of Compromise (IoCS)Suppose one day a us

Tell us your worst or best backup stories

World Backup Day is March 31 … April Fools Day is April 1 … So, for our April 2nd Livestream, we’d love to highlight as many crazy, chaotic, or startling backup or recovery challenges, successes, or failures, that you’ve personally experienced. We won’t be saying full names or companies, so feel free to submit anonymously – but if you have a short story that others can learn from, we’d love to share it. So, either grab your phone, turn that camera around, and record a 15-60 second clip of some of your most challenging backups or recoveries OR write down your story. Either way, upload your written or recorded story to https://veeam-wbd24.portal.massive.io.Then tune in April 2nd as we laugh and cry about them together. -- JBuff Ps, turns out this idea isn’t as original as I thought, as some of you are also already submitting a similar story for the Blog of the Month contest. So now you have two reasons to tell us your best or worst stories!

ESXi 8.0.2b Now Available

Hey Everyone,VMware has recently rolled out the newest iteration of ESXi, version 8.0.2b. Among its fixes of fixes and enhancements, one particular fix should be called out: addressing an issue related to Changed Block Tracking (CBT) and virtual machines with a hot extended virtual disk. In vSphere 8.0 Update 2, to optimize the open and close process of virtual disks during hot extension, the disk remains open during hot extend operations. Due to this change, incremental backup of virtual disks with CBT enabled might be incomplete, because the CBT in-memory bitmap does not resize, and CBT cannot record the changes to the extended disk block. As a result, when you try to restore a VM from an incremental backup of virtual disks with CBT, the VM might fail to start. For more information and to get the bits, head over to the release notes page of 8.0.2b.

Can a veeam server be a proxy from another Veeam server?

I have customer with two veeam servers and we want to de-mote one to just be a proxy. As we transition, could the 2nd veeam server also be a proxy for the main veeam server while we test all backups from the main server. Once all looks good then we can uninstall B&R and just run that host purely as a proxy.thoughts?
