I have been going through Google the last few days trying to find an answer to my issue, but so far I have not found the answer that works.  I am getting this error message when I try to run a backup on my one and only community edition that we do not pay for support for.  Failed to perform backup file verification Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).Asynchronous request operation has failed. [readsize = 524288] [offset = 4763648]Agent failed to process method {Signature.FullRecheckBackup}.This is backing up a Cantos SMB server and Every post I have seen says to check for bad sectors, but the checks come back as “OK”.  How else can I check for corrupt data?  what other options do I have to try to remedy this?  Any tips on where to look next are greatly appreciated.

Hi Folks, I am making a plan to try and get Veeam CDP introduced. I have used Zerto but have only used Veeam CDP in labs so far. Does anyone here have production experience with both? I am not looking for a “just boost Veeam” answer 😁. I love Veeam but honesty is always best so if there a things that still need working on with Veeam CDP no issues.  

Data is crucial for businesses, driving operations, decisions, and innovation. To safeguard against threats such as cyber-attacks, hardware failures, and natural disasters, a backup strategy is essential. Veeam backup solutions are notable for their portability, which helps organizations maintain data resilience amidst evolving technology.Data portability involves moving data smoothly across different environments, systems, and locations, ensuring it remains accessible and recoverable. Portable data backup with Veeam is essential for maintaining this accessibility and recoverability in various situations.1. Disaster Recovery Preparedness: In the face of disasters like cyber-attacks, hardware failures, or natural events, rapid data recovery is crucial. Veeam's portable backups allow easy transfer to other locations or cloud environments, enabling quick restoration of critical data and minimal downtime.

Good day team, Trying to create a sub folder under the backup tree in container and i get this error. This blob storage is working Buexec, backups going to it etc. I also cannot move forward as i need a folder name to select.How can i resolve this?

We have a vSAN cluster where the vSAN network is physically separated on different network switches from the management and other VM networks. When configuring Veeam backup proxy for VM backups on vSAN, what interfaces or connectivity is required? What traffic flows over which interface? Is the below understanding correct or we need only one interface on the backup proxy connecting to the ESXi mgmt network? ESXi: vmnic0 - esxi mgmt  (connected to a pairA of network switches)vmnic1 - vsan (connected to pairB of network switches) NIC0 - connectivity to ESXi Mgmt (Connects to ESXi/vCenter for VM and esxi details, mouting the backup VM disk to the proxy VM)NIC1 - connectivity to the vSAN inetwork (data of the VM is fetched through this interface) Thanks,Sudhir

Hi team, We all know about the type of general backups usch as incremental, full, synthetic full, differential etcMy colleague (a veritas user) wants to move forward with Veeam. However, he is not yet conviced, he is asking if veeam can:Perform general Differential backups efficiently and easily in VBR 12.1 with easy steps Perform Differential backups on VHDX/VHD, VMDK files with retention of choiceI welcome any detailed/explanation insight here. I would love to make him a new Veeam user/believer.

I had a problem with our host server in production and I had to activate the replicas on our second backup host, later I applied permanent Failover, after reestablishing the first host that had the problem, I created replica routines from the backup host server to the main one and I applied permanent Failover, finally, I recreated the replication routines from the main server to the backup server, however, it is no longer working, an error keeps appearing that I couldn't find on the community forum. Failed to process replication task Error: Failed to create planned VM configuration (path: 'D:\9ca0c3d4671a45888343cf0b4ef75605(20)\Virtual Machines\545b475e-2040-49fe-bffb-d9133f3739f4.vmcx'). [WMI] Empty result.

Using the cmdlet Get-VBRJob I can get the backup job.  Pipping this to Get-VBRJobObject shows me the objects backed up by this job.Most of the VMs in this backup job exist in folders so all I see are a list of those folders.How do I get the VMs contained in these folder?

Any can help to solve this error please?“2024/3/27 11:04:52 :: Unable to truncate SQL server transaction logs. Details: Failed to truncate SQL server transaction logs for instances: MSSQLSERVER.   “It is from a backup job of a physical server.

Hi,I am running some tests on a demo installation of Veeam. I have set up a job with retention and immutability of 5 days. The full backup is done on Sunday and the incremental on Monday. on 3 August the chain immutability expired but on Sunday 4 August veeam did not remove the old chain (with expired retention and immutability verified by s3 browser) how come? 

Hi!I have been working with TP2 of Veeam M365 and have published the first (of several) blog articles on this topic:13 – Veeam M365 v8 Technical Preview 2 – Installation & Service Accounting – Disaster and Recovery (disaster-und-recovery.de)As I am known for my focus on security and hardening, I first looked at what the automatic creation of service accounts means and examined this in the lab. I am happy to go into further deep dives, feedback is welcome! Stay safe!Lukas

I know  veeam support will only knows which logs to review but for knowledge purpose can somone  please share the log files to investigate for each Veeam component like, backup job, replication, restore, surebackup, sobr, cloud backups, proxy server, repository, tape backup etc and if any tool to investigate logs 

Hi,For those of you who are running HPE servers with ILO 5 or 6.We were hit hard last weekend when updating HPE ILO 5 from 3.05 to 3.06. It took our entire vSphere cluster down. See:https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-remote-server/warning-ilo-3-06-causes-crash-of-dl380-gen10-plus-server-with/m-p/7221633#M10163https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00141858en_us&docLocale=en_US

HiI ask if Veeam community edition of Veeam is compatible with RHV, and if anyone has had experience. Gustavo

Nutanix introduced AOS 6.8 and it is causing some API issues with Veeam Backup for Nutanix. This can result in restore failures and other issues. We are recommending Veeam customers not to upgrade until an updated version is available from Nutanix. The timeline we received for the update is later toward the end of the year. Please see the links below for the latest details😀.Veeam Forums link https://forums.veeam.com/nutanix-ahv-f51/aos-6-8-veeam-ahv-support-interoperability-validation-t93415.htmlVeeam Backup for Nutanix User Guide (Supported Versions)https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbahv/userguide/system_r

I was alerted to the CVE in some Slack RSS feeds.  I figured why not get the new patch that was released and installed it. Quite simple and straight forward, which is usually the case with Veeam.I did a bit of digging into the KB and was quite excited to see that they included more features into this than I was expecting. I figured this was mostly to fix the CVE’s.   New Features and EnhancementsPlatform SupportAlmaLinux 9.3 and Rocky 9.3 supported for use as Linux-based backup repositories and backup proxies.
