When we add user from Entra ID, how long this user will be shown in VDC?I try add new created uses on Entra ID as VDC admin user but even wait more than 10 minutes, the new user still not showing.

Over the holidays our Veeam QA/DEV teams working at Veeam speed validated AOS 7.0. There is no new enhancements in this version for VBN AHV v7. It was requested by our joint customers. We are also validating AOS 6.8.1.6 which is TBD at the moment. The updated AOS is now reflected in our VBN AHV v7 user guide link below😀.Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV v7 User Guide Note: Veeam has validated AOS 6.8.1.6.

Trying to upgrade Veeam from 12.0 to 12.1, and the original installer has left. How would we reset the credentials so we can perform the update? We thought our service account was used but apparently not. All attempts to update have failed so far. Part of the issue is most NASA accounts require PIV card authentication, and I don’t know if that plays well with a Veeam update. The service account is PIV exempt. The current version is pushing an old version of the kmod veeamsnap that won’t work with the current RH kernel. Why don’t we just rebuild the kmod in the fly every time a new kernel arrives like other kmods seem to work? Like CUDA for example.

Dear Community,Greetings! I’m reaching out to see if anyone has encountered a similar issue. When I click on the GCP appliance in Veeam and select Rescan, I receive the following error:Could anyone help explain what this error means and how to resolve it?Looking forward to your insights and suggestions!      

Anyone know why my VBR server log using . (dot) and use 24hours format in the time ?The server actually use 12 hours format with : for the time. 

We use an immutable repository based on physical RHEL 9.4 servers.RHEL 9.5 has been released and I would like to upgrade the Repository servers OS.Can anyone let me know when this is going to be supported by Veeam ? I did have a dig but came up short.ThanksPhi

In today's digital landscape, ensuring the availability and integrity of your data during disasters is paramount. A robust disaster preparedness plan for your backup solutions is essential to safeguard against data loss and minimize downtime. This article will give an overview about  best practices for disaster preparedness specific to backup solutions, including offsite backups, site-redundancy, and failover strategies. 1. EncryptionImportance of Encryption: Encryption is essential for protecting your backup data from unauthorized access and ensuring compliance with data protection regulations. Encrypted backups safeguard sensitive information even if the physical media or files are compromised.Best Practices:Data Encryption: Encrypt data both at rest and in transit. Use strong encryption algorithms such as AES-256 to secure your backups. Key Management: Implement robust key management practices. Store encryption keys separately from the encrypted data and use hardware security module

Hi,  I have a problem with the transaction log backup.I have 4 SQL servers in one backup job.  The full backup and incremental backup are running fine.  However, the transaction log backup stop running on Nov 30.  They were running fine before it stopped.  I also have configuration set to run the transaction log backup every 8 hours and it doesn’t run neither.Here is what i have done and what I observe so far:1.  I also did something that’s suggested on the internet forum, disable and then enable the backup job.  However, the transaction log backup is still not triggered/started.2.  It seems like the transaction log backup never starts after the failure on Nov 30.  So there is no report for the transaction log backup after Nov 30.  3.  The statistic page shows the transaction log backup job failed, not pending.  So, apparently, the transaction log job is stopped or shutdown and won’t re-run4.  The Veeam server was rebooted last Saturday and it didn't help.5.  The last time it ran had a

Hello everyone. A costumer of ours have a problem after the 27/12. Until this day all the backup is working fine with the incremental on the most of them take 10-20 min, sudenly on the 27/12 all the backups take to long to complete. Like 1+ hour when 1 week before the same backup is taking 10 min. On the most of them i see a 99% bottleneck on the source but when i go to investigate the source machine everythink is showing fine. ANd this situation with the bottleneck is not showing on all the backups, on some the data is look fine ( like what is looking before 27/12 ) like 40 source, 15 proxy 20 network etc but and on this jobs the timers is extremely long. Any suggestion?PS: That start a day, there no change on the infastructure or anythink that can start a befavior like this Best Regards

Anyone have a need for this:Currently customers have 2 options when connecting a Tape Server to a Tape Library1: Physical Tape Server: attached to the Library/FC2: Multiple Virtual Tape Servers: partitioning the tape library so each Tape Server (VM) will see only select drives, and slots.Either way would maximize the throughput of data transference. Currently having 1 VM as Tape Server does not maximize the libraries efficiency throughput.https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=110You can add multiple tape servers to the same installation of Veeam Backup & Replication. But mind that you cannot add one tape library to two different tape servers and write data to it from both tape servers.Would this work:  Ability to have multiple tape servers within single VBR see and manage same multi-drive tape libraryTo optimize the use of libraries and drives, it should be supported between multiple Tape Servers within a single VBR.

I hate asking newbie questions, but I’ve been through the docs more time than I care, but cannot find a simple explanation of what is actually required to perform a simple file restore.Backups are VMware based. On B&R 12.3.  I can initiate the restore process, but it hangs(timesout) when I hit the “Browse” button.  I do see the B&R server connecting to the linux server with SSH. And in the process, creates some files/folders in /tmp.  But does not appear to put anything in /var/logSame issue whether I try and restore to the same, or original server.What are the requirements for a Linux system, to be able to do a file-level restore? What does it need to connect to, what needs to connect to it.Does it, or does it not need the Linux Agent?  One of the Linux systems I tried to restore to actually has the agent.  But most of our Linux systems do not.Would be nice to find a doc that laid this all out.  But if there is I have not found it yet, or missed something.I get that Veeam want

I have a suggestion/issue for/with the VEEAM tape handling…In the definition of a tape pool you can select that tapes from free state are transferred to this pool if required.But when tapes expire in a type pool, then the tapes keep in this tape pool in expired state and are not returned to free state.In the worst case the expired tape accumulate in this pool when there a less tapes needed as before. So the tapes in free state decreases continually and you have to manually transfer the expired tapes in the pools to free state.I think it would be useful when VEEAM does this by itself. Thenn all tape pools can get free tapes and all free tapes are shown in the correct state...What do you think?

Hello everyone,We have Veeam integrated with vCenter in our environment. There were no issues when adding the vCenter, but occasionally, the host discovery fails with the following error:"Disks and volumes discovery failed.

I have one problematic backup job that is different from my other backup jobs in that I want to use it to backup specific folders on a remote Windows server using file level backup on Veeam Backup and Replication.   Whenever the job runs, it fails with the following message:Waiting for rescan job Rescan of  Files Backup to completeUnable to process svr: host rescan is requiredNothing to process I have rescanned the Windows server multiple times but the problem persists.   I can use help solving this one.   BTW: the Veeam Windows agent is installed on the remote Windows server, so perhaps I should change the job to be run by the agent?

I am using Veeam B&R community edition for testing purposes on a Proxmox cluster. After accidentaly deleted a backup file, I have restored from Backblaze cloud personal and imported in VBR, but restore fails with error Failed to reload metadata bank. Declared and actual CRC are different for all bank snapshots. Failed to open storage for read access. Storage: [Nextcloud Backup_2024-12-23T030148.vbk]. Failed to restore file from local backup.

Agent failed to process method {DataTransfer.RestoreText}. Agent failed to process method {DataTransfer.RestoreText}.I use Backblaze for offsite backup and if fails it should be a big problem. Thank you

Hi Team, Are we going to get the learning paths with badges here (like kubeacademy)

Just installed Veeam free edition on Dell Optiplex 5060 desktop running Linux Mint Mate 22.  Have several years’ experience with Veeam on older versions of this OS, and Veeam setup and a couple of test backups appeared familiar.  I did notice that the new backups ran for 10 minutes or so- less than half the run time in the old OS.  IIRC those Veeam instances were v.5.x and older, the new one is 6.3.0.73.  The volume of saved data is the same and Veeam has always been set to do a bare-metal backup. Has there been a change to Veeam that would explain this difference?

Recently upgraded a client to a new server, running ESXi. It has 2 windows servers and a win10 backup and replication server as VMs. The old server was also ESXi only running 1 windows server and the windows agent. When I first tried to bring the new server up starting with a bare metal restore of the original server I ran into problems because Veeam would not restore the server to a functional state because it was a standalone domain controller. There were many suggestions on how to correct this but none of them worked. Finally I got around this by setting up a new windows server on the new hardware with the old server still running on the old hardware, and made it a BDC. Then when I turned off the old server and restored it to the new hardware it synced to the existing Domain Controller and worked normally.Now I want to take backups from the same vm on the new server, and restore to the original vm on the old hardware, which will be in a different location, creating a disaster recove
