Buenas tardes estimados, Mejores practicas Veeam y su integración aun Dominio Active Directory Una consulta, estamos evaluado la implementación de Veeam y se mencionó que no se recomienda su integración al dominio. ¿Esto es cierto?  Me gustaría tener claro este punto, ya que de mi parte he visto varios artículos que mencionar su operatividad.2.- ¿Es recomendable integrar Veeam al Dominio Active Directory? Y si es recomendable, donde puedo obtener esa confirmación oficial? Agradecido de antemano por la ayuda que me puedan brindar, Saludos cordiales,

With the release of 12.1.2 on Tuesday May 21st and after completing several upgrades I decided to do a blog post on the update and upgrade process.You can find my blog here - https://just-virtualization.tech/2024/05/22/veeam-12-1-2-release-upgrade/ Veeam 12.1.2 Release – Upgrade On May 21, 2024, Veeam Software released an update to the Veeam Backup & Replication products in the form of version 12.1.2.172.

Hi Community,after Rick's announcement (thanks for the initiative), I couldn't resist creating another script for the community.As documented, you can add one YARA rule file to the scan process. But what if you want to use multiple YARA rules? Of course you could work with a so-called index file, which refers to the individual YARA rules, but this brings a problem with it, because the YARA rules are stored on the VBR server, but the scan process provides the backups on the mount server and only one YARA rule can be used (This is a topic for another blog post - stay tuned).  What if we would like to use all YARA rules from Rick's Top 10 Ransomw

Hi everyone,Veeam Community Hackathon banner for 2024. Alfred is sitting in the middle at a desk. He is about to press a run button with his paw.

We have two DCs running VMware clusters that have independent vcenters managing each of the clusters. A instance of Veeam B&R instance is proposed to be deployed in each DC to backup the local clusters. IN addition, there will be replication of some of the VMs across the DCs using Veeam B&R instance. Multiple packs of Veeam VUL licenses have been procured for all the VMs in both clusters. Need to understand on how we should be splitting the licenses across the two instances and the impact of VMs being replicated on the license consumption.

Veeam's Malware Detection feature released with v12.1 was certainly a much-anticipated and welcomed feature by many, me included. And, if you didn't read it, I even wrote about my initial experiences with it:But since enabling Inline Entropy Scan in my environment, I've really had to micro-manage it with regards to Malware events of potential malicious activity Veeam "finds". Veeam is certainly aware of the short-comings of the Inline Scan engine and I know they are hard at work preparing an update for release which I'm confident will make it better. See this Forums post for further details.

We have several Synology NAS devices that we would like to essentially backup to tape to take offsite via our monthly tapes. I stumbled upon an article about backing up files to tape and hitting the 10GB limit on the SQL Express DB. I’m not sure if this would be an issue for us or not. We’re on 12.1.2.172 Enterprise Plus Edition. Would this be an issue for us and we’d need to migrate our DB to our MSSQL Server (which we have and could possibly do). File to tape limitation - R&D Forums (veeam.com) Apart from that, I’m also interested in the best way to tackle this. Would it be best to backup directly to tape OR backup to a repository and then process said backup to tape? None of the current NAS devices are on our 10Gbps infrastructure. We think we have a way around that by using Synology Replication re

VMware's vSphere 8 Update 3 brings significant enhancements and new features, providing improved performance, flexibility, and security. Key Updates vSphere Live PatchvSphere Live Patch in Update 3 allows critical bug fixes without needing to reboot or evacuate hosts. This ensures minimal disruption as virtual machines undergo fast-suspend-resume (FSR) during patching. However, VMs with vSphere Fault Tolerance or using Direct Path I/O must be manually remediated.Partial Maintenance ModeThis new state allows existing VMs to continue running while disallowing the creation or migration of new VMs during vSphere Live Patch remediation tasks.Enhanced Image CustomizationvSphere Lifecycle Manager now supports more granular customization of images, including the removal of non-essential components and retaining specific driver versions, optimizing for remote and edge use cases.Dual DPU SupportvSphere

What does the deleted_files_...log indicate in Malware detection log? Is veeam removing files from the production server or the backups?

Hello,I import agent backup into VBR, now how i can remove this from VBR?  

I've been using Veeam Agent for Windows for a bit, and have successfully used backups to restore individual files. I wanted to upgrade my NVME system drive to a larger one, so I figured I would try using the restore.I made sure my Windows 10 was up to date, updated Veeam to the latest version, created a new recovery ISO, and created a fresh backup. I then swapped in the new NVME and booted from a recovery USB. I stepped through the wizard, selected system volumes only (there is a data SSD I don’t need to restore); I did not use the Manual restore.After it copied everything to the new drive I rebooted, and then was stuck in a boot loop which ultimately ended in a recovery environment. Looking through the manual, there is a note about driver injection, so I tried again and disabled driver injection, still stuck in a loop. I put the original NVME back in and started looking for answers - any insight appreciated.

VMware's vSphere 8 Update 3 introduces the powerful vSphere Live Patch feature, a significant advancement in maintaining system security and stability without the need for extensive downtime or service interruptions. What is vSphere Live Patch?OverviewvSphere Live Patch allows administrators to apply critical patches directly to the hypervisor layer without requiring a reboot or evacuation of hosts. This feature ensures continuous availability of virtual machines (VMs) while keeping the system secure and up-to-date.Key BenefitsMinimized Downtime: The Live Patch feature utilizes a fast-suspend-resume (FSR) process, ensuring minimal disruption to running VMs. This approach is particularly beneficial for environments requiring high availability and minimal service interruptions. Operational Efficiency: By eliminating the need for host reboots during patching, administrators can apply

IntroductionStarting with Veeam Backup & Replication version 12.1, VBR events can be sent to external syslog servers. A list of events can be found here.There are currently integrations for Splunk and Sophos MDR/XDR, which, among other things, provide better visibility to detect and stop threats targeting backup data. Further information can be found at the following URLs:Veeam App for Splunk Sophos MDR/VDR integrationNote: The possibilities with Veeam Backup

With v12 it will be supported to use group Managed Service Account (gMSA) for user credentials.For my understanding of gMSA it will be necessary to have VBR server in a domain. Because it will still not be recommended to join this server the production domain, a special resource or management domain could be needed. For more details we will have to wait for general availability to get the user guide.If you have more ideas about gMSA implementation, let us know 😀

Hello.This is my first post here.Please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. I'm using Veeam Community version 12.1.1.56 and since I updated to this version, my "file share" backups have been experiencing issues.I have two backup jobs of this type.The problem I'm going to report only occurs when I activate the option "Configure secondary destinations for this job" within "Backup Repository" in the job properties.If I create a backup job now, it will execute the task normally. However, on the following days, Veeam starts to encount

After upgrading to 12.1.2 this morning, all of our backup copy jobs went into a failed state with the error“5/22/2024 8:08:10 AM :: Error: One or more Veeam components on host This server are not up to date. You must upgrade them first. The job has been automatically disabled due to too many failures. Please fix all issues preventing the job from running before re-enabling it.”The “on host This server” is the exact wording in all cases.  They were indeed all disabled.  Re-enabling manually seems like it’s working, but none of the copy jobs actually have any work to do until later in the week, so I can’t say for sure. Anyone else seeing this?

This is a heads up with anyone using NetApp ONTAP versions 9.14.1, 9.14.1P1, 9.14.1P2, 9.14.1P4 with Veeam Backup and Replication. It is recommended to upgrade to ONTAP 9.14.1P5. This was reported in the Veeam Forums - https://forums.veeam.com/post520749.html#p520749 the bug does not specifically call out Veeam but it can occur during storage snapshots. Please see bug report for additional details - https://mysupport.netapp.com/site/bugs-online/product/ONTAP/JiraNgage/CONTAP-211013 I pasted a screen shot below. This can also occur on OEM versions of ONTAP running on Lenovo Thi
