This post continues Shane’s first post about community engagement but from the perspective of being a VUG Leader and the engagement that you can have within your local groups.  To reiterate again, this is not how to become a member of any of the Veeam100 influencer groups.Previous article from Shane - Engaging With The Veeam Community - Part 1 | Veeam Community Resource HubVeeam User Group (VUG) Community – What is it?The VUG or Veeam User Group is a collection of Veeam enthusiasts who enjoy discussing all things Veeam and includes in-person events.  There are typically two leaders within each VUG: for example, for the VUG Canada, there are three leaders – Hin Tang, Tyler Jergens, and, of course, me.  Tyler runs the VUG Canada West events, while Hin and I run the East events.The differ

Need some clarification. On this scenario i have a windows server that run an app and i want to backup the whole server (in case we ever need to restore it i can just dump it on a vm) but i want to make this whole backup daily and immutable. For what i understand there is a set number of days for immutability but not sure how does this work for daily backups.  Whats the correct settings to do on this case?  Are these backups like whole backup every day or its incremental only? Thanks.

Hey,I have configured Linux Rocky 8.10 with kernel 4.18.0-533.16.1.e18_10.x86_64 to the Hardened Repo. However, I encountered an issue when trying to add this server to Veeam. The problem is with the Installer Service, and I receive either an exit code 1 or a timeout when connecting to Rocky via SSH. I have already turned off all firewalls and allowed all traffic. My question is whether version 8.10 is supported.I can connect to the repository via SSH using the command line from Veeam server. Veeam version 12.2.0.334 Here gave info that Rocky 8  is supported..https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/hardened_repository_limitations.html?ver=120

I asked this in the Veeam forums, I figure I ask here as well: I have Veeam B&R server1, with a SOBR repo, the capacity extend going to Azure. i have a Veeam B&R server 2, with a SOBR repo, with the capacity tier going to Wasabi.What is the best way of getting the backups going to Azure on Veeam server 1 to Wasabi on Veeam server 2? Goal is to eventually decommission server 1.I can recreate the backup and backup copy jobs on server 2, so then point forward, it will use Wasabi. But how will I get the existing historical backups in Azure on server 1 to Wasabi on Veeam server 2?

 Again, Veeam has exceeded expectations and delivered a new release for the Veeam Data Platform with many new features and integrations.This release expands Veeam Backup and Replication platform capabilities significantly. This post will focus on Proxmox VE compatibility, MongoDB support, Nutanix Prism Central integration, and Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB support.The VDP 12.2 for VBR release also delivers other new workload integrations, enabling customers to transition to new platforms with confidence and security, like:IBM Db2: Linux on Power support and SLES 15 SP5 support. SAP HANA plugin: now operates on RHEL 9.4 for SAP HANA. Veeam Agent for Linux: support for the

Mongo DB and VeeamTraditional relational database systems such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL, Postgres are built around the concept of tables of information organized into Rows and Columns. These tables/rows/columns store data in a rigid structure. When a new row is created for a table, it should have all the same fields as other entries in the same table. Some fields in a table can reference information from other tables through foreign keys. There is a Schema to define what fields exist in which table and how tables cross reference each other. Data is entered and retrieved through a Structured Query Language which is similar across each of the different vendors but might have slightly different syntax. Each platform has a unique way to manage scale and improve performance and how storage is managed, as well as implementations of other features like replication and high availability.Relational databases aren’t the only option for storing data. NoSQL databases offer more fl

Hi,after backuping ubuntu ever since without problems, the first fresh installed ubuntu 22.04 came up with this warning message in our latest veeam b&r 11: Failed to index guest file system. mlocate was not found.   As since ubuntu 22.04 the package mlocate is just a transitional package to plocate, there is no mlocate binary.So I did a ln -s plocate mlocate  and expected the message to be gone - but it keeps reporting, that mlocate was not found. updatedb and locate do not show any errors:root@ubuntu2204:/var/log# updatedb -Vupdatedb (plocate) 1.1.15Copyright (C) 2007 Red Hat, Inc.

Hello friends, could you help me with a problem?I have a cluster with 8 HP servers, and they run Windows Server 2012 R2 and the Hyper-V feature.I have a Veeam Backup Community and every time I register my servers as a Hyper-V Stand-Alone Cluster, after a few hours, Host Discovery gives an error and gets disconnected. It only reconnects when I repeat the process of including the Host again, but then, after a few hours, it stops again.And with this problem, all the backups I schedule give an error.Does anyone have any tips for me?Please.   

Good day team,Is there way to connect more than Veeam B&R server/software on different servers across both wan sites and/or locally? How can this be achieved?It is recommended that i install Veeam Enterprise Manager on the first server and/or site then start the  connecting. If so, is this free/does this require a license? Any other method?

Hi folks, I have an interesting one.  I have a client whose 12.2 upgrade experienced issues and the server had to be rebuilt.  That said, the encryption password kept on file for whatever reason doesn’t match what was used in production.  I have reattached to the local and VCC repo that the client was using.  When the restore points are showing as Encrypted in the console, I don’t see an option to delete the datat.  For the local repo, I was able to just delete the data directly from the repo and rescan, but I don’t see an option to do the same on the VCC repo.  If I CTRL-Right click the job name in the Backups, I have an option to Remove from Configuration or Decrypt Backup.  Anyone have a suggestion on how to delete the restore points from the VCC repo aside from having support do it on the back-end (it’s an Iland/11:11 Systems VCC)?  I guess I can see an argument for not allowing locked restore points from being deleted in the console, but wanted to make sure there may not be ano

In this post I would like to highlight the new support for MongoDB within the Veeam Data Platform 12.2 and in particular within Veeam Backup & Replication.   What is MongoDB?  I expect many of you have come across SQL and maybe heard of the term NoSQL but what does this mean? These are two types of databases amongst many others but the purpose of this section is to discuss and highlight that MongoDB is a NoSQL database. a document-based, database management system (DBMS) that stores and manages data in flexible, JSON-like documents. It's a non-relational database, which means it doesn't use tables and rows like a relational database management system (RDBMS) does.See what they say themselves about their offering - 

The new “Technical Report 4948 NetApp E-Series storage with Veeam Backup & Replication: Reference architecture and best practices” is online!  But let's start from the beginning - how exactly did this happen?While we often use NetApp Ontap systems for primary storage environments, there are other requirements for backup storage.What really matters for backups:- Reliability- Blockstorage to get immutability through the hardened repository- Price/performance per TBFor smaller environments, we like to use rack servers with RAID controllers and internal HDDs.However, as soon as multiple 100 TB are required, the use of rack servers with internal discs is not always optimal, in terms of restore times, RAID expansion, etc.A very common combination for us is therefore a

I encounter this error upon upgrading the VEEAM B&R from 12.1 to 12.2. can anyone help me?

I am getting the error shown in the image. UAC is disabled. I can connect via IP, but I cannot connect via machine name. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi all,During the upgrade to V12 for several of our customers we received an error where we couldn’t upgrade all the components.VeeamVssHwSnapshotProviderSvc.msi with Veeam VSS Hardware Provider Service (VeeamVssProviderSvc) service inside does not work on client Windows 10 A short workaround on this: Connect to the database and perform the following statement (of course, take a backup of your database first!)delete from [dbo].[HostComponents] where id = '8A3F9C13-90F3-4B1C-A2A7-C82E6AB66E0F'  It seems that not all Windows 10 installations are facing this problem. We’ll try to figure out of certain builds are involved in this. On the other hand, a fresh v12 install in Win10 works without any problems.

Hi alltogether,a customer of mine is planning a NetApp solution running NetApp Synchronous SnapMirror as DR / HA solution. I know it is offically not supported stated in the documentation.But is only the snapmirror to the secondary system and restore from second system not possible? Or is the backup from primary storage snapshot and snapshot creation possible within NetApp Synchronous Mirror? Thanks, Dennis
