Reverse Incrementals on Hyper-V

I recall from one of the recent Veeam R&D Forums Digest newsletters that Reverse Incremental for Hyper-V is being removed or has been removed in VBR. This is useful for sending full backups to Tape, otherwise we have to do synthetic full to Tape (heavy use of virtual memory for our TB-sized backups) or create a synthetic .VBK (use more disk space). Which VBR version did Veeam start doing this? Luckily still on 9.5 I feel like Hyper-V is getting short-changed ...

Request: SureBackup & Backup Copy Job Awareness

Hi, A feature I believe would be extremely useful would be scheduling SureBackup around the completion of a Backup Copy Job. Backup Copy Jobs aren’t scheduled the same as usual jobs so I understand the additional complexity around this however the reason for my request is simple. One of SureBackup’s primary limitations is Disk IO, if we create a SureBackup job to run after a backup job is complete, a Backup Copy Job could then start consuming IO to transmit this backup to an archive tier, Cloud Connect or to some other secondary repository. This creates contention for IO with SureBackup, impacting the ability to validate virtual machines. A key example of this behaviour is when VMware Tools fails to start within the traditional 30 seconds (I’m aware of registry keys that can amend this behaviour, but it’s just one example). If we could chain either BCJ’s to run after a backup is validated (so we know we’re copying good data firstly) or even inversely whereby we run SureBackup after the

Studying to pass your VMCE certification exam?

Although there is a lot of great content out there, sometimes you may just be stuck and not sure what your next steps should be. I’ve been planning some YouTube live Q&A/Study group sessions and wanted to check if there would be any interest in such a format from the good folks here?

Get a notification when restricted user data is accessed in Veeam Backup for Office365

A very interesting feature in Veeam Backup for Office 365. You can get an email alert when data from defined users is accessed in VBO V5. I think this would be a great feature for the “normal” Exchange backup, too. https://benyoung.blog/get-a-notification-when-restricted-user-data-is-accessed-in-veeam-backup-for-office365/ Thanks to Ben Young for the detailled description.

Request: Veeam Website Authentication Improvements

Hi, Hopefully I’m not alone in my wishing of this but I believe that Veeam need to adopt an MFA offering for their sign in systems. The amount of services covered by the Veeam single sign on is increasing and there are some services that would really benefit from the increased security such as the ProPartner portal. Also I’m interested to hear everyone’s experience with the “keep me signed in” setting for Veeam. I don’t find it keeps me signed in longer than a day on average. MFA + keep me signed in for 14/28 days would be awesome improvements this year IMO.

I just wanted to post about my upcoming book for those that might be interested in learning about Veeam v10. The book is title - Mastering Veeam Backup & Replication 10 from Packt Publishing. It is in pre-order now on Packt and Amazon. It will cover some of the more advanced topics in Veeam v10 and requires some knowledge. It will be a great reference for anyone wanting to learn more about Veeam. If you have any questions just let me know. The publishing date is noted for March 9th but I have fast tracked the chapters which are all done now so that we can move the date up sooner to February timeframe hopefully. I can post more news once I have some.

[Link] vSphere VM quiescing essentials

Just read a excellent and very comprehensive article about VMware vSphere VM quiescing. This is the necessary process - within a VM - to get a consistent status of the guest OS (especially virtual disk) and applications. So VM gets quiesced before vSphere snapshot is created. Because VBR uses (like I think any other backup software vendor) vSphere snapshots for backup/replication, I thought this article would be interesting to share. It is definitely worth reading and I highly recommend to do so! https://blog.zuthof.nl/2020/11/26/vsphere-vm-quiescing-essentials/ Here a short overview: What is quiescing? Consistency options Non-quiesced Crash consistent Quiesced File-system consistent Application consistent Interfaces Veeam uses Network (RPC) vSphere VIX Usage in Windows VSS Script Linux Script Quiescing impact on app recovery Transaction Logs Quiescing impact on performance Snapshot based Impact because of vSphere snapshot Less impact with Storage snapshots (supported by Veeam) IO Filt

How to copy back data from capacity tier to performance tier?

I have a performance tier on a scale-out of several repositories and a capacity tier on object storage. I copy backups to object storage as soon as they are created so I can have a disaster recovery in case a repository failed irremediably. What is the best practice to restore the whole data of a repository starting from data in object storage?

Community feature request: Comment functon enhancement on cell phones

I am using VEEAM community on my cell phone often, especially in the evenings When I want to write an comment on my cell phone there are few functions avaliable only… On my PC the comment window has a whole bunch more functions. So it would be a huge improvement for me when the available functions were equal on all plattforms… What do you think?

Can I filter backup jobs that don't have a secondary backup destination (backup copy)?

Hi! I need to select in Powershell all backup jobs that do not have a backup copy associated yet. They are vCloud backup jobs. The complete task, just to give you a better understanding, involves checking if every backup job on a pre-filled list (not all backup jobs are on the list) has a backup copy. I’m looking for a properties or anything else you could suggest. Thanks in advance

Community feature request: Read me later / bookmark

I often don’t have the time to look at certain topics. So, it would be great if the community had a read me later or bookmarking feature, besides the possibility to subscribe to topics. The subscription list doesn’t quite fit this task as it will get messy over the time.

So, I’m going to be working on rebuilding our repos to be Linux repos to leverage the new security in V11. If you were going to build a repo for 15 TB drives running on VSphere 6.7. Ubuntu. These will provide back up copies to 5 customers each. I can look at what the specs are but I want to know what you all think. Thanks all :)

Question about Veeam Storage Integration

Hello all, I’m trying to determine if Veeam B&R supports the IBM FlashSystem A9000 Storage for Storage Integration. The Add Storage wizard only lists IBM Spectrum Virtualize and the Get Plug-in webpage doesn’t list any other IBM storage plug-ins. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks
