Looking for in-person Veeam VBR or Veeam ONE training in Canada. I know there are plenty of virtual options, but I’m a bit 'old school' and prefer a traditional classroom setting. Is it still possible to attend these courses in person in Canada or the US?Thanks for your tips!!

Lyrical IntroductionI can't believe my eyes. A product as powerful as Veeam Backup & Replication can't do simple things? Or maybe there are problems with my instance specifically? Or am I just a dumb instance?What I have.2 companies and 1 Veeam Backup & Replication 12.3.0.4165 serverWe run 70 backup jobs for these companies, without any overlapping time.1. Company 1 – 30 VMware VMs (1 job = 1 VM) – timeframe 12. Company 2 – 40 Proxmox VMs (1 job = 1 VM) – timeframe 2We also run Health Check jobs, timeframes 3 and 4, also without any overlapping time.What do I need?At a minimum, I want toreceive two emails, one containing a summary report of all backup jobs for the day, and the other containing a summary report of all health checks.MaximumI want to receive 5 emails1. 1 summary report on completed Company1 backup jobs to 2 email addresses – company1user@domain.net and admin@domain.net2. 1 summary report on completed Company2 backup jobs to 2 email addresses – company2user@domain.

Copy job VM is failing with error server_flat.vmdk either was not backed up successfully or restore chain is corrupted. Failed to download disk server_flat.vmdk The copy job repo is immutable based and cannot delete the single VM from disk ( copy ) so that sync now option can run.The retention set is 30 days and forever incremental is enabled. The VM size is huge and trigerring active full in source backup job will make the old .vbk + .vib to delete only when new .vbk + .vib attains 30 days consuming space in local repo ( non-immutable )Is changing the repo for source backup a feasible option ( would make existing backups to move to new repo ) and then trigger an active full only for the affected VM ?What are the other options available ?

I am looking for Veeam powershell script to list jobname, server, status and last run for last 24 hours . this should include backup and copy jobs. Kindly assist.

Hello everyone,I have a question regarding MFA in Veeam Host Management.During the initial installation, I enabled MFA on the default veeamadmin account. However, my goal is to use veeamadmin only as a break-glass account and instead create separate admin accounts with MFA enabled.The issue I’m facing is the following:When I enable MFA on another admin account, either:the verification code is sent to the veeamadmin account, or the MFA validation fails completely.This prevents me from properly configuring MFA for individual admin users.Has anyone encountered this behavior?Is there a recommended way to configure MFA for multiple admin accounts while keeping veeamadmin as a fallback account?Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,Over the past week, the checkpoint removal process has been completing with warnings. I receive notifications 2–3 times, and then it returns to normal and completes successfully without warnings.However, for the past 4 days, I’ve been receiving the same warnings again. I’ve checked everything, and everything seems normal. When I review the statistics, there’s no clear reason for these warnings.Could someone help me understand what might be causing this issue?Thank you in advance.

Some of Hyper-V VM have Veeam recovery Checkpoint. The backup job is running successfull every day but why seem veeam not delete this checkpoint? I tried to remove this but there no option to delete this checkpoint.   

The veeam backup version is patched to 13.0.1.2067 after that few proxy servers are not getting updated. Failed to upgrade host components. Error: 'The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. Failed to invoke rpc command  (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)

I’ve installed Veeam Backup & Recovery 12 on a Windows 11 device (it used to have Veeam installed and was working fine but accidentally got removed, we’re not sure what version).It was used to backup a Esxi Linux VMI’ve setup a computer and a VM backup job but neither complete with a message ‘failed to perform backup policy operation.The only messages I see in the login relates to Disposed or retry are not supported.Some fixes relate to restating the veeam backup service...but i see no backup service and even when i run the MSI, there are no errors after installing as account prompted by default.Any suggestions?Thanks

Hi everyone, We plan to integrate Veeam Backup and Replication with our SIEM as part of our security hardening. I would like guidance on the best way to forward Veeam logs and events to a SIEM platform. Looking for advice on supported methods, required settings, and any best practices or limitations.

What could be the issue? Failed to send certificate, but certificate is required for remote agent management Error:

Hi Community,Has anyone successfully reverted Veeam ONE from version 13 to version 12? Are there recommended steps or considerations to avoid issues during the downgrade? Any official guidance or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to disabled Web UI, without disabling Host Management UI? Our goal was to disable web ui because we’re not able to install a proper custom cert on it. So it would present an issue during our annual pen test

Hi All, I install veeam 13 appliance, and connect to it with Veeam Backup & Replication Console installled on windows, I can find backup job log on veeam 13 appliance (var/log/), but if my backup job created from windows console, I can’t find log , I check %ProgramData%\Veeam\Backup , but not find backup job log by job name, Backup jobs aren't synchronized between the web interface and the console, right?So where can I find the log files for backup jobs generated by the console?Thanks.

Hey! My company currently has a Veeam Premium license which includes all of the core Veeam products. I really want to certify to showcase my skills and improve them too, but they are refusing the pay 2.5k for the course material + exam.I can see there is a Veeam University Pro for customers and partners but to be perfectly honest it seems all cluttered the some of the links are dead and return to dead ends.What options do I have and is there a cheaper way to certify?Cheers,LGH.

Hi community,I’m running into an issue with Custom Roles in Veeam Backup & Replication v13, and I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction.I’m trying to create a restricted Backup Admin who should only see and manage specific backup jobs and specific repositories. However, I’m experiencing the following behavior:If I configure the custom role with limited permissions (selected jobs and/or selected repositories), → the user does not see any jobs at all. If I grant broader permissions (effectively “Full Access”), → the jobs appear, but then the user sees all jobs, not just the intended subset.I’ve tried several configurations, but the result is always the same:Either zero jobs are visible, or all jobs become visible when access is unrestricted.My goal is to allow a delegated admin to operate only a defined set of backup jobs and use only the repositories assigned to them — nothing else.Has anyone successfully configured granular visibility in v13?Any examples of working c

Is there a way to get better reporting for usage on hardened repositories? I recently had a Wasabi issue after upgrading to 12 and our console was showing 29.7tb’s of usage which is right under our 30tb bucket. Actual bucket size was 128tb which lead to additional billing.

If we use forward forever incremental backup on the tape, can we disable the full backup schedule?
