I am trying to clean up my Veeam Backup environment. Since they launched the Malware detection many of my backup sets are marked as containing files that Veeam thinks are malware. Most file extensions are not and some are files that have been created from our internal Applications Development team. I am either deleting non-relevant files or adding the extension to the Trusted Objects list.One extension that Veeam marked as Malware is *.kill . It found 2 files on our file server with this extension. Confusingly, I have not been able to find these files when I search the file server.  Can anyone point me to an application or process that could locate these files?

I have a backup copy job for OneDrive that has been running for over 60 hrs. and I am attempting to stop the job.  I stopped it in the GUI however the job still shows running with a status of “Queued” and the details show “Operation pending”.  The job status has not changed for 30-60 minutes.   I have also attempted to stop the copy job with the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Powershell Toolkit but I am running into syntax errors.

Does the Veeam Media Creation tool depend on the host OS when creating the bootable ISO or does the Veeam Media Creation tool contain everything it needs?None of the ISO’s that are created on Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 24H2 PC’s can connect to the Veeam backup server to perform a Bare Metal Recovery but they can ping the server’s name and IP when using Tools → Command Prompt.I posted detailed info, with the errors, here:https://forums.veeam.com/veeam-agent-for-windows-f33/recovery-media-does-not-work-v6-3-t97990.htmlI’m wondering if the IoT edition of Windows (or maybe version 24H2 in general) doesn’t come with something, that other Windows editions/versions do come with, that’s required during the media creation process.Has anyone else ran into this iss

Hello, Thanks, How can i use VBR to backup a VM on windows 11?https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/hyperv/system_requirements.html?ver=120

Hello, I am currently in a battle with VBV - Veeam Backup ValidatorAs has been my experience, the health check of an agent backup job is done by the machine running agent.That, for some reason, the VBR itself cannot perform this function; even though the agent is managed by the VBR and the VBR has full access to the backup repositories.As I run my veeam over tailscale, when my laptop is outside the home LAN, the health check takes many time longer than the backup job itself.So I am try to come up with a workaround. using VBV, to offload the health check to a machine inside the LAN.So far, very frustrating, I cannot seem to use /backup flag on a backup job that does not contain a VM.I did tried to set /vmname to the name of machine running agent, but never worked.Is that correct?"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\B

This warning occurs when a time shift is detected in the Hardened Repository regardless of the deployment type used. In this article, the focus is on “VHR ISO”. This is a safeguard against immutability manipulation that can also be triggered by intentional time changes etc. But in my case, it was as a result of extended shutdown.As you can see below, the backup job completed with warning(s).Did a little troubleshooting and found the root cause. Please, see the error message for more information ‘A problem occurred during setting the immutable flag: repository time shift detected, immutability flag cannot be set. Please refer to KB4482 for more details.”If you are using the Veeam

Hi!We have Kasten10 Operator installed on top our OpenShift.We have 5 worker nodes, so we should have been licensed: "Veeam Kasten has two free editions: a five-node version (no time limit) and the Enterprise Trial version, which provides up to 500 nodes for one  month. Both are fully featured. "Since today, we cannot login to kasten10 GUI, it just stay on login screen, doesn’t do anything..In log I’ve found:“[0] tcp.0: [[1742911413.740498230, {}], {"File"=>"kasten.io/k10/kio/license/license.go", "Function"=>"kasten.io/k10/kio/license.(*License).LicenseExpired", "Level"=>"info", "Line"=>306, "Message"=>"License currently expired”I don’t know if it is for “starter-license” or “trialstarter-license”.Can enybody help us with this matter.Thanks!

 Hi, I am setting up a Linux Hardened Repository for our backups and have followed ​@HannesK ‘s very good instructional videos found here: https://www.veeam.com/blog/rocky-linux-veeam.htmlI got everything done on the setup of the Rocky Linux machine, however I cannot get it added into Veeam Backup an Replication Console.  It gets stuck on this part It is exactly the same error as this forum post however, I am not being successful What I have tried so far:I have disable

Hey Folks,Perhaps this is a feature request or maybe people have their own way of doing this. It sometimes happens that I am doing a post and get distracted or have to leave it. Then for whatever reason I lose the post (dumb laptop shutdown but not only). So first of all to the Community Managers, is there any chance we can get a save draft functionality here?If not what do other people here do? Or do you simply sit down right the post and click create?Copying and pasting from word does not work well and I am assuming creating in .md format to paste in would be best. In that case what markdown editor do you use?

 I am currently in the process of migrating several hundred TB of data (millions of files), and while it’s taking a long time due to the file count, I have noticed duplicate data and a very unorganized structure. This is causing me issues, requiring manual verification, and I have also encountered incorrect permissions.Here are a few tips when archiving your data for the long term to avoid these issues.  1) Implement Proper Naming ConventionsConsistent and meaningful naming conventions are essential for long-term data retrieval. Five, ten, or even twenty years from now, poorly named archives will create challenges. Establish, maintain, and adapt a structured naming system to prevent data from becoming unusable due to disorganization.2) Use Compression to Optimize Storage and PerformanceUploading and managing millions of small files can be inefficient, expensive, and time-consuming. Compression helps mitigate this issue, esp

I don't get it.I have backup and replication Enterprise.I backup my VMware servers to a local storage and then I want to backup copy them to Azure storage blob (Hot).All I can see in backup and replication is the option to connect to an exsisting backup in Azure.If I try to create a new storage with folders, Veeam cannot see the folder.I read somwhere that I must deplot an enterprise app in Azure to create this folder.Is this really true?Can someone please give me some direction?

My inhouse system & handful of remaining customers all have almost identical configurations. They all have Community v12.0 but all will likely go to Foundation. Each has:Production Host Hyper-V Server MS Server 2019 Replication Target Hyper-V Host MS Server 2019 Win10 Backup Server with Veeam Console Ubuntu Immutable Storage unit. Since the Win10 unit is also my local Admin unit it is on the domain. Several of the Production Servers are also on the Domain before I received the info. Problems encountered:When I setup the last Replication Target, I took the previous Production Host and removed it from the domain. It lost all knowledge of Hyper-V and existing VMs. No problem on that as I just resetup from scratch. Don’t want to do that with a Production Host if possible. I’m sure removing the Win10 Backup Server/Console/Admin unit from Domain will make a mess. I don’t mind resetup as I’m going to install Found

I’ve encountered a couple of issues with B&R and I’d like to start from scratch. I’m contemplating renaming my old B&R server VM and creating a new VM with a freash OS and Veeam B&R install since my current B&R server has been updated many times and was switched from Microsoft SQL to PostgreSQL.Is there a way to export/import only the Credintails & Passwords? I want to manually add all of the other info into the B&R server because one of the issues I’m encountering seems to be database related.Issues:I replaced a physical workstation that uses Windows Agent. I reinstalled the old SSD into the new computer. I renamed the PC. Everything works, including Veeam Agent backups but I noticed that email alerts and Malware scan related errors still reference the old computer name even though the new pc name is displayed in the B&R control panel. Since enabling Veeam Threat Hunter, I get the following e

Hi, I have an M365 environment with about 600 Users. I have divided my backup jobs into 2, Outlook and OneDrive, but for a long time the backup jobs are working but not progressing. What should I do? 

Using 12.3Is there a way to restore a DB to a CIFS share? I have a MS SQL VM that points to a CIFS share location on our NetApp SAN. When I try and do a restore I cannot specify the Database files target location to anything other that a drive the server sees as local, meaning not a cifs share, or a network mapped drive. 

Hello,Someone can explain what is Data processed, read and transferred? 

General Recommendations Platform Memory and CPU Over-commitmentFirst and foremost, memory over-commitment is not recommended in OpenShift. However, Red Hat recommends overall CPU over-commitment ratio must not exceed 1.8x of the number of physical cores and that memory usage may not exceed 0.9x of the physical memory available in a cluster. This rule is applicable to the ratio of CPU allocation to all of the pods to physical cores available in a cluster.NOTE: CPU over-commitment leads to throttling, so slowness of all workloads on the impacted node. Thereby workloads can be more or less sensitive to that.✅More Information about CPU Ready 

I do restore VM to Azure local, the VM is showing in the azure local node and on the azure cluster.But anyone know why the VM is not visible in the azure portal?

When will version 13 come out?Is there going to be a linux version? Im interested in migrating away from Microsoft SQL with v12 so Im assuming the Linux version will take care of that too.
