Resolving SQL Backup Error - Code 0x80040e14 (Dispatch error #3092) / failed: 112(There is not enough space on the disk.) IssueBackup operation fails with the following error:Failed to perform internal backup                                                               Code = 0x80040e14Code meaning = Dispatch error #3092/ failed: 112(There is not enough space on the disk.)Source = Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 Root CauseThis error typically occurs due to insufficient space for temporary transaction log (T-log) files during SQL backup operations. Resolution Steps1. Verify Transaction Log File SizeContact the SQL DB Team to check the size of the transaction log file. Confirm the required space for temporary log storage. 2. Check Drive AvailabilityIf lacks sufficient space, proceed to request a new temporary disk. 3. Request Disk AdditionAdd a new temporary disk to the server. Disk size should be based on SQL DB Team's recommendation plus 10 GB buffer. 4. Configure SqlTempLogPa

Hi everybody,I am not yet an expert on Veeam B&R but today something happened that is driving me crazy.I have a server on which I have installed Veeam B&R CE and two Windows 10 PCs on which I have installed Veeam Agent CE. I directly configured the two Agents (PC1 and PC2) to back up to the Veeam B&R repository on the server. Connecting to the B&R console on the server I noticed that only one Agent appeared in the Physical Infrastructure in Unmanaged.I repeated the procedure many times and I noticed that appears only the name of the first PC that is connected to the server.Until recently, the names of both PCs were shown in Physical Infrastructure!How is it possible?

I installed the Veeam 12.3.2.3617 on a virtual Windows Server 2025 and this has been a very bad experience.  I started to migrate the repository data to the new server, but it has become very unusable.  Now when I look up the issues on the web with Veeam, other people seem to have similar issues when using server 2025 with the repository on a ReFS file system.  At this point, everything is in limbo, meaning that the server randomly hangs when Veeam runs.  30% of the repository has been moved, but I can’t seem to do anything with the server.  Every time we try to access Veeam repository it just hangs.Does anyone have any suggestions other than scrapping the Veeam backup installation completely?thanksMatt

I keep getting the error when with the Windows Backup Agent:“Veeam Endpoint Backup is already running for user *MyUsernameImCurrentlyLoggetInWith* “When I try to edit the job currently running. But no other users are logged in or accessing the app. I have tried deleting the job. Now I can’t make a new one. Rebooting, of course. Shutting down the App and the Service. Uninstalling and reinstalling. Resetting the DB. Deleting the config folders in ProgramData and Windows Program Files. And I keep getting the error. Like something is still left on the machine, with a setting that is causing he fault. Ideas?? How do I completely remove everything from the Veeam Agent from the machine and start over?  

Earlier this year, I kicked off a series on HPE storage platforms and their integrations with Veeam Backup & Replication. We started with the HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 and then looked at Veeam Ready – Appliance Hardened storage servers as secure backup repositories. I paused the series for a while to let some important HPE announcements catch up with the story I was telling and to complete more hands-on validation. Now is the right time to pick things back up with the HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000, the next natural step in the conversation. This blog is not a deep dive into every feature of the X10000 — instead, it’s about where it fits into a Veeam-powered backup architecture, why it matters, and how it supports cyber resilience at enterprise scale. The X10000 is HPE’s flagship object storage platform, built to manage unstructured data at scale with an all-flash, disaggregated architecture. Independent scaling of capacity and performance, powered by NVMe drives and 100 Gb Ethe

Hello,i was trying to register linux server, but certificate file exists.I have deleted /opt/Veeambut still is echo about “File exists” Do you have any hints, where could be located for redhat? I have checked all logs, but cannot find even on VBR or linux itself. Its Veeam 12

Hello Everone, what is the default retention policy applied by Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 Flex? I noticed this was not covered during the onboarding process or while configuring the backup policy. Is there a default retention period that is applied automatically? Where can we find or view this default setting in the interface or documentation? How can we modify or override it if needed? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi there,Veeam B&R 12 is installed on a Windows 2022 Server, which is installed on VMWare ESXi 6.5 U3. From there I backup our produtvie Server, which is a VMWare ESXi 6.7 with a Windows Server 2016 and a Windows Server 2012 R2 (Exchange Server) installed on it. Everything works fine, exept the backup of the Windows 2012 R2 Server. It does backup, but I receive the Warning “Failed to index guest file system. VSS Control: Index failed". Is there any way to fix this, except disabling the file indexing?

Backup for vmsrv0 on hyper v host1 worked always before, but for hyper v host1 i forgot that i turned off vmsrv0 vm LOL, so veeam was backing up a turned off vm. I went into host1 and switched from vmsrv0 to vmsrv1 running the same/replica (OS-Suse Linux Enterprise 12), did not continue backup chain, i just created a new backup to drive. Now i get vmsrv1 Processing vmsrv1 Error: Error: The requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation Asynchronous request operation has failed.

Does Veeam VBR 12.1 cover Server 2008 and 2008 R2 Virtual guests…? Thanks in advance.

Hey Everyone, wanted to share a few things with the community about Virtualisation or Virtual Machines on Kubernetes, in the field and with the overall Hypervisor Hunger Games all options are on the table it seems. I have made my feelings quite clear around vSphere being the best hypervisor and ultimately today still the best ecosystem but this is not stopping the exploration of alternatives. ​@Geoff Burke and I did a live stream at the end of August touching on a project called Kubevirt, this is the mechanism to run Virtual Machines on Kubernetes, either as an alternative hypervisor and / or alongside your containers. This is also what we find being used in the enterprise products such as Red Hat OpenShift and SUSE Harvester. Every month me and Geoff jump on the live stream and cover something cloudy, DevOpsy or just something interesting.   From this episode and the release of the Veeam Software Appliance, I had an idea lets show the apples to oranges comparison here between say some

Hey Folks, I wanted to share my discovery of Veeam v13 beta with you. ​@Michael Melter  made an excellent post on the installation.I had undertaken the same work so I'm sharing my version with you. On my side, in this first post I go a bit further by presenting the Host Management part. I wish you a good read! 1. Veeam Software ApplianceOne of the flagship announcements at VeeamON was the release of the Linux appliance version - yes, Veeam Backup & Replication is switching to Linux. (The Windows version is not deprecated for now, so don't worry).Objective: we want a product that performs backups without having to worry about maintaining operating systems.In this first article, we will cover the installation process of this new appliance, based on Rocky Linux, and the use of management consoles.⚠️Reminder: We are testing a beta version here. Some features are still missing, incomplete, or might not even make it to the final version.Deployment: In this Beta version, to deploy V13 as

HotAdd Manual Testing (kb1184) only works when VM is powered off. I did this test but only works if I turn off the VM. There is no text in the article saying that the VM has to be powered down in order to attach the snapshot vmdk but I would think this is normal where the snapshot vmdks are locked thus can not be attached to another VM. What did I miss in the KB?  

HPE and Veeam jointly validated HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 as an S3-compatible, immutable backup repository for Veeam Kasten v8. The team confirmed successful backup and restore behavior, Object Lock immutability enforcement, and post-retention cleanup. CSI-assisted local snapshot restore testing was performed with HPE CSI Driver 2.5.2. Reference Architecture (at a glance)  Kubernetes cluster running Kasten K10 v8  Repository configuration: HPE Alletra MP X10000 S3 endpoint with Object Lock (immutability) enabled  Policies: App-aware backups with defined retention and periodic export plus restore validation  CSI for local snapshot flows: HPE CSI Driver 2.5.2  What HPE Validated HPE configured the repository settings in Kasten to use the HPE Alletra MP X10000 S3 endpoint with Object Lock enabled, then ran immutable backups governed by policy-based retention. HPE performed restores from the repository and observed expected behavior end to end. After the retention window elapsed, th

I’m working with Veeam SureBackup and I have 5 Virtual Lab running on one ESXi host. Now I need to move it to a different ESXi host.Is there a way to change the assigned host for the existing Virtual Lab, or do I need to create a new Virtual Lab on the new host and reconfigure everything?

Hello. I have a request to restore files from a specific host from a tape made earlier this year (2025-01-01). And I am not sure how to determine which tape it is that I need. Here’s the problem. At the time, the VM I need files from was running on vSphere. Since then, we’ve moved to Nutanix. If I try and do a Restore, choose VMware, I don’t see the jobs from that long ago. (which I kinda expected). But what I don’t know, is how to determine which tape made on (or around) 2025-01-01 has the backups from this VM. So I can recall the tape from offsite storage and do the restore.I realize this is probably a silly question, but I’ve never had to do a restore from so far back, it’s only on tape, and not still on disk storage.I tried to do a Restore,  If I select “Files and folders”, I can scroll down to my server, and I can see the VM I want, but the backups listed only go back about 60 days. I need longer than that. Which means I’m looking in the wrong area. But I don’t know what the right

Hands-On with Scale Computing  At Veeam on, Scale hinted to me they were at the event for a reason. As we are a large user of Veeam, this excited me as there is no chance of my installing VM’s I can’t backup. Things have progressed quickly in this area since and I’ll be testing these features out in the near future. Hypervisors have been such a hot topic this past year, with lots of discussion around cost, complexity, and future direction. I have been testing all options as the future is still unknown and there are a lot of new options available. Scale demoed how you could run a highly available cluster on just a few Intel NUCs, compact, inexpensive hardware that still delivers solid performance. That got me thinking: could this work in my environment too? I wanted to see firsthand how their platform performs, and I was especially curious about their Fleet Manager Platform, which makes it easier to manage multiple clusters from a single dashboard. Fleet Manager DashboardThe Dashboard i

Most of us love and embrace SOBRs as well as hardened Linux repos for obvious reasons.Once in a while a SOBRs shifts out of balance because VBR cannot predict sizes of VMs and especially chains with changes.Therefore, for a non-immutable repo we have ways to rebalance the SOBR: KB3100: Manually moving backup files between Scale-Out Backup Repository extents (veeam.com)V12 will even bring us the conservation of space optimizations here: New in VBR v12: True per-machine backup files - vNote42This though is and will not be an easy task for the hardened Linux repo, as it will prevent files from being moved between the extents. I e.g. currently face a customers SOBR with one extent having 0% free while the others all have more than 80% free...Question is: Did you ever face this challange? How did you solve it? (Build chains from scratch? Disable immutability, reorg files, enable immutabilty?)

Question about VEEAM licensing in the context of a storage/server migration project:Old VEEAM server license:Veeam Backup & Replication v12 Build 12.3 Subscription license for Enterprise Plus 110 Instances (76 Used: 75 VM + 1 Server)The new VEEAM server is not connected to the old storage or old server.So the VM backup migration has to follow the VM server + storage migration: activate new backup for a VM when VM is migrated to new storage/servers. Whole process expected to take 2 months max.Can we license the new VEEAM server with the same subscription without deactivating the old VEEAM server? Can we do it without deploying an Enterprise Server?We will never pass above the number of currently used instances because a VM cannot be backed up on old and new at the same time.Thanks,Francis

Hi All,I’m working with Veeam Backup & Replication and need some guidance on replaying SQL Server transaction logs after restoring a database.Here’s my scenario:I’ve restored a SQL Server database using Veeam. I want to replay the transaction logs to bring the database to a specific point in time. I’m not sure about the correct steps or best practices to do this within Veeam or SQL Server.Could someone please guide me on:How to properly replay transaction logs after a restore? Whether this can be done directly through Veeam or needs to be handled manually in SQL Server? Any precautions or tips to ensure consistency and avoid data loss?  

I try to migrate my vmware VM to hyper-v using veeam and i always got ‘failed to modify disks”. Anyone know how to fix this? 

Hi, Good evening.I am analyzing different Veeam Backup & Replication instances and I would like take all parameters for every backup job present on every VB&R instances that I am analyzing.I would like to know if is possible launch one powershell script  for retrieve these values for example: start time for every schedule job, servers involved, backup modality (full, incremental, reverse incremental, etc) aware setting if exist, etc.Thanks in advance.Best regardsRicardo

BackgroundWe have Veeam Backup & Replication (12.3.2.3617) server installed at our Head Office, where physical and virtual machines on the 192.168.ABC.0/24 network are backed up to Veeam Backup Repositories.Some physical devices are sometimes on Branch Office 192.168.XYZ.0/24 networks (where the XYZ is provided by local Branch Office DHCP servers). These devices can roam between the Head office and a number of (i.e. several) Branch Offices.The ABC is never equal to XYZ, and no two Branch Office XYZs are the same.Situation SummaryI want to be able to backup these roaming physical devices to either the Head Office Backup Repositories when the device is there, or to a local NAS in the Branch Office when it is there. For bandwidth reasons, we can’t reliably backup from Branch Office to Head Office over the VPNs during business hours. We can, however, replicate from Branch repo to Head repo over the VPNs overnight, which is when the endpoints tend to be disconnected from the LANs and wi
