Hello guys,

One of my customer has encounter the following error message in a backup job.

I never saw this message before. The Veeam version is 11 last patch.
It’s a linux repository.

I asked to my customer to open a support case, but in parallel maybe one of you has already meet this one ?!

Yep have seen that, can you check the number of network ports that are consumed on the VBR server, if in doubt run the below:

 

netstat -abno > C:\<Directory>\<filename.txt>


Sorry for double posting, after adding the code the page wouldn’t let change my formatting back from code…

 

I had this whereby ports were being exhausted on the VBR server to the repositories and proxies.

 

In one example I had AV issues that was breaking the communication down and forcing Veeam to set up additional listening ports & processes.

In another example I discovered a load of backup repositories misconfigured to not have any limit for concurrent tasks, and then backup copy jobs utilising them, if you don’t have a limit set then it’s 500 task concurrency, per repository, so this generated thousands of sessions of copying data, each needing VBR to orchestrate the process.


@MicoolPaul Thank you for this quick response ! I suspected the number of parallel tasks, this number is well configured on the repository
But I will ask to check again and run your cmd.
