veeam backup&replication failed to connect to host

Hi everyone,recenly i’m doing some test on the veeam backup&replication community edition on my Dell R710 which is running server 2019 standard. And at the first time, i can add a hyper-v server which is running server2019 (standalone) to the backup job, but once i deleted the job, i cannot add any hyper-v again.It always shows :Failed to connect to host 10.178.3.41Access denied or timeout expired. (sometimes is invalid namespace)Check if you have local administrator privileges on computer '10.178.3.41'.Possible reasons:1. Invalid credentials.2.

Better than Just VPN for the Home Lab

Hi everyone!I wanted to write today about a tool that happily surprised me and now has made my life easier, related to VPN and connectivity, its called TailscaleThe main slogan says :Secure remote access to shared resourcesTailscale connects your team's devices and development environments for easy access to remote resources.I’ll try to put it on my own words, in my use case, I’ve been using it at the beginning to connect to my Home Lab remotely from my house to my “Jump Station” over RDP, then, I started to use some advanced features:VPN Access to a single client VPN to Remote Site, to access other devices not capable to install the Client Proxy / Traffic router when Im out of the house or in a untrusted network Web central console for configurations, users creation and management. Easy to use client for Linux, Windows, Android, OSX, iOS, etc.The client is very neat, clean and easy to use, also the documentation is great!Im gong to post a few screenshots and will make a future entry w

Feature Request: Develop Integration with secondary storage arrays for Infinidat/Infinibox

We are further developing some of our DR test plans and are exploring the options of using Veeam to restore VMs from the Infinidat storage snapshots.  During testing at our primary site, we can successfully restore individual VMs from the primary storage snapshots on our Inifnidat.  These storage snapshots are also replicated to the Infinidat secondary storage array at our DR site.   We’d like to be able to use Veeam to restore individual VMs from the replicated storage snapshots on the Infinidat secondary storage array.  Our reps at Infinidat advised us to contact Veeam to get this request on record and I opened case #07375492 with Veeam.  Veeam support advised that this feature was not yet supported and recommended that I start here with a feature request.  I appreciate any advice or information you can provide.  Thank you.

Failed to perform backup file verification Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)

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.

Ok need help here. ZERTO VS VEEAM CDP

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.

Veeam proxy network for vSAN backups

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

How to use powershell to get VMs in a backup job that are in a folder?

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?

VBR Security Trusted hosts

Good morning community,just a quick question regarding the Linux hosts authentication. Regarding Security & Compliance Analyzer, it’s best practice to set this to manually.Is the only option, to get information about the current acknowledged systems so far, by exporting them, and check the exported file? Is there an option to get these informations from the config-database or from anything else?Couldn’t find anything int the user guide: Adding Computers to Trusted Hosts List - Veeam Plug-ins for Enterprise Applications thanks in advance, best regards Markus

How can i remap Unstructured Data Backup Copies when the Repository changes IP-Adresses?

Hey there, we need Offsite-Backups of our Unstructured Data. Since the Backup Files are roughly 3,5 TB in Size, its impossible to get that Data to the Site directly due to slow Internet Connections. So i first configured a Secondary Target NAS for the Backup Job Onsite to get that Backup Copy onto it. I then moved that NAS to the Offsite Location, changed it’s IP and added it back into Veeam as a new Repository. Did a Rescan of that new Repo and Veeam found the Backup Data and added it. I now added that new Repo to the secondary Target in the Veeam File Backup Job and removed the first one (which was the same NAS with the Onsite IP which is now invalid). I then restarted the actual Backup Job. It created some data, finished teh Job and the new Backup Copy Job started. But here’s the problem: It completely ignores the Backup Copy already in existence on that (now) Offsite NAS and instead starts creating a whole new Backup Copy. This is absolutely inacceptable. How can i tell Veeam, that
