I am implementing AntiForgery into a WebApplication. Whilst I know this works server side using the AntiForgery Library by adding a hidden element and then validating it on a master page event, we have hundreds of ASPX Page WebMethods to consider when it comes to client side implementation with jQuery or reactJs.Is there a way of creating a filter to tag onto WebMethods that does an AntiForgery check?

Although the post is very small, the news in it is big 😃With v12 you can start a Active Full backup of a single VM processed by a job. Just open the progress dialog of the job and right-click the VM you want to backup. As you can see, this can also be used to run a Retry just for selected machines. Important: this will just work when you use the also new feature in v12: True per-machine backup files 

This is going to be huge change. VeeamON never disappoints! 

I have a strange issue and have been trying to solve it for a few days now.  Fresh install of Veeam Backup 12 for the purpose of migrating a few dev/test VMs from one ESXi server to another.  The install went proper, I created a Ubuntu 24 server on each ESXi server and installed the backup proxy components via the GUI in VBR which registered them there.  Since this is more of a migration project, there isn’t a need for a separate backup repository.  When creating a quick migration job, everything goes well until the backup proxy selection.  The only Backup Proxy that is available is the VBR server and not the actual proxy servers themselves.  Since the migration job is having to use the VBR server as the proxy, the performance is horrid.  I have performed:-repair on VBR 12-reconfigured the proxy servers from VBR GUI (no errors)-proxy servers are on same VLAN as VBR server so no firewall challenges Any thoughts on what I have missed?  Thank you all

 ANYONE, your assistance please ! "Failed to retrieve certificate" 1. Another offsite DB file backup to azure Blob storage A passed for another server(db server). 2. This same exchange server DB file successfully backups to an azure blob storage B from BUEXEC. Why not for veeam 12.1?

I created a second blog for the OOTBI series and you can view it on my blog site or below.https://just-virtualization.tech/2024/08/19/object-first-ootbi-web-ui-users-buckets-more/ Object First (OOTBI) – Web UI, Users, Buckets & More In my first blog post I took you through the journey of OOTBI to my datacenter and then through the Cluster Configuration and setup. You can see that blog post here – Object First (OOTBI) – Installation & ConfigurationI am now going to go through some of the Web UI features, including first launch, and show how you configure things such as –Users Buckets Access Keys Email Alerts Software UpdatesWhen you first go to the Web UI URL for your OOTBI box, you need to log in using the “objectfirst” user and password you set during the initial setup phase, which you can see in my first blog post in the link above. After you log in for the first time, OOTBI prompts you through the main setup wizard, starting with creating S3 Keys for your user account.  Afte

Way back in December (really, it was only 4 weeks ago ?!?), I posted on my personal blog about the Broadcom acquisition of VMware, and how they were ending all of the current perpetual licensing and moving everything to subscription licensing. However, there were many, many questions, and FUD about the changes and what this would mean for licensing VMware products going forward. After many conversations with VMware, reviews of presentations VMware provided to partners and distributors and reading of FAQ's, I finally have an understanding of just what direction exactly VMware is going with their licensing and how it applies to the end user clients. Please note that this is more oriented towards the newly announced vSphere Foundation subscription and it's smaller siblings, vSphere Standard and vSphere Essentials Plus Kit subscriptions which are more oriented to the SMB space. And to be up-front, I'm not really going to talk about vSphere Foundation as that's really the replacement to Ent

We are currently managing a Windows Agent backup policy configured in "Managed by Agent" job mode. The policy is set to perform a "File-Level Backup" and is configured to include the following objects:E:\ C:\Windows\System32\LogFilesWe need to modify the policy to include the operating system volume in the backup. To test this, we cloned the job and made changes to the policy using a test machine. However, we encountered an issue: when we add the "Operating System" as an object in the "File-Level Backup" mode, running the job triggers a new active full backup of all volumes.We observed the same behavior when changing the job mode to "Volume-Level Backup" or "Entire Computer"—an active full backup of all volumes is triggered on the next run.Our primary concern is avoiding the need for an active full backup of the E:\ drive, which contains around 6TB of data. The servers are located at remote sites with slow links, making it impractical to re-seed the entire E:\ drive.Could you please ad

Happy Thursday Community! Thought I'd share another Linux process today – how to resize a Linux volume used as a Veeam Repository in Linux OS, specifically increasing its size. This also is in reference to using an array as your Volume-backed storage. Logical Volume Manager (LVM) processes won't be discussed. Additionally, though there is a process to decrease Volume sizes as well, I also won't be discussing that process either. When wanting to decrease Volume size, I highly recommend creating a new Volume of the desired size, then copy your data to it to prevent potential data corruption.As most of you probably know, increasing Volume sizes within Windows is pretty straight forward → increase LUN storage on your array, then rescan your disks in Windows Disk Manager, then Extend the Volume. It takes a minimal amount of time to perform. Within Linux, there are a few more tasks needing to be performed than in Windows to get your Volume size increased. I'll share exactly what those steps

Dear community, I just managed to finish a new blog post regarding the Entra ID Backup beta version. Currently I have many customers looking forward to the feature release and I prepared an overview on my blog: 15 – Veeam Entra ID Backup Beta – Backup and Restore – Disaster and Recovery (disaster-und-recovery.de) Trying not to loose myself in a deep dive I tried to address the integration into the well-known VBR GUI and the basic functionality and different job types. Looking forward to licensing - hopefully we stay below the prices of CommVault. :-) Best regards from Germany and thank you for feedback!Lukas

What is Health Check?A health check is a planned process within a backup or backup copy job that helps ensure the data integrity of the backup chain. When Veeam Backup & Replication initiates a health check, it performs a CRC check for metadata and a hash check on VM data blocks.CRC Check stands for Cyclic Redundancy Check. It is an error detection algorithm used to check whether data is corrupted during transmission or storage. This algorithm calculates a CRC value from the sent data and adds this value to the end of the data. The receiving party calculates the same CRC value from the data it receives and compares it with the sent CRC value. If the two values ​​match, it means the data is transferred or stored intact.  Why Are Health Checks Important?Health checks are important to ensure data consistency in the event of a disaster. Computers can make mistakes. The more systems interact with each other, the greater the chance of errors occurring. When performing a backup, Veeam com

Hello, well, the fun never ends.I moved a VM named ‘user01-Virtual-Machine agent_vserver03’ from one folder to another folder on the same drive letter V:The vm itself runs fine, no issues.Now, the backup fails.I tried to search about the error and for 'HvGetVolumesByPaths', but foud nothing at all.Error: Failed to call RPC function 'HvGetVolumesByPaths': The file or directory is not a reparse point. Failed to retrieve reparse point data. I re-scaned the hyper-v server, ‘VSERVER03’ but nothing changed.Note: this is a homelab, i am willing to delete and re-do whatever.But, no idea what to try next. Maybe I should the following, but hoping there is a less drastic solution?export vm delete vm import vm in VBR, re-scan the standalone hyperv server re-create a backup job and backup copy job

Somewhat not Veeam related, but I figured there is a good group of folks in here to ask.  Earlier we were discussing the largest VM’s we backup in VBR, and I noted that I was looking for maybe a solution to for offloading large amounts of archive data to Wasabi, but still wanting to access the data as a share.  I sent a quick message over to my Wasabi rep and he referred me to the Wasabi Cloud NAS service which I do actually remember hearing about a few weeks ago but forgot about.  Does anyone have any practical experience with it?And to keep it Veeam related, I was going to ask if anyone had any experience with how to back the service up, although when creating this post, I got a suggested topic…..which is only 6 days old and yet I missed it!But protecting 50TB of data is pretty expensive when using NAS backups, and for archive data that rarely access, so I’m thinking deploy the Veeam Agent for Windows on the server and backup up that volume that way…..though it would need to be teste

Hello,A while ago I set up a immutable repository on a Ubuntu host 24.04. For that I created a separate partition with separate user login for client A.All worked fine over months. Yesterday on the same server I created a new partition with a new user login for client B. I could add the repository to VBR 12.0 on the client side. Today I see that for client B VBR cannot find the repository. Host discovery fails. “an unknown error occured while processing the certificate” I’m not sure what happened, but it has certainly something to do with adding a new repository for client B. First, is it generally possible to have several clients on the same Ubuntu server with separate partition and user logins? How can I fix it for client A without breaking for Client B? Thanks,Edy  

Hi,How can I reset the configuration under Linux on the command line. i want to be able to go through the initial configuration wizard again which came up after the first installation.

Hello,I have a very small environment consisting a of 1 Hyper-V server.  I have direct attached storage, a QNAP NAS with NFS & Object Store capabilities and a subscription with Wasabi.  Ideally I’d like to configure a backup which creates a copy on the direct attached storage, copy on the QNAP and a copy in Wasabi.  I’m seeking recommendation on how to configure the backup job.  So far I’ve created a SOBR consisting of the direct attached storage + QNAP.  I also have a Backup Copy job which uploads the SOBR to Wasabi but I’m not certain if any of this is a best practice.   The Backup Copy job is configured as a secondary location for the primary backup job.  Thanks
