Discussion Boards

As you know, we need a name for this cat There were a lot of suggestions from you across all social media channels, so we put together a shortlist, a poll for community members to choose the best name.  

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.

Hi all when i when i try to restore any objcet through sharepoitn failed unlocated content database Note this machine is remote veeam server (VBRC) is workgourp

Hi, A feature I think would be great is to enable the Veeam vSphere plugin without requiring Enterprise Manager. Now we are on HTML5 people are looking for the “single pane of glass” experience. It would be great to see Veeam Protection information polled straight from Veeam B&R. Currently the enterprise manager requirement can put extra burden on infrastructures using default SQL Express for example.

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 

hi all i try to remote to Veeam server backup from other machine :windows server 2016 by using Veeam Backup & Replication  Console appear  

Hello everyone,wouldn’t it be nice if we could see the duration of every backup job inside the Veeam Service Provider Console?I am pretty sure I could see this kind of information before in the following view, when the tool was still called Veeam Availability Console.I guess this is a feature that has been removed.What do you think? Daniele

I have a suggestion/issue for/with the VEEAM tape handling…In the definition of a tape pool you can select that tapes from free state are transferred to this pool if required.But when tapes expire in a type pool, then the tapes keep in this tape pool in expired state and are not returned to free state.In the worst case the expired tape accumulate in this pool when there a less tapes needed as before. So the tapes in free state decreases continually and you have to manually transfer the expired tapes in the pools to free state.I think it would be useful when VEEAM does this by itself. Thenn all tape pools can get free tapes and all free tapes are shown in the correct state...What do you think?

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

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 :)

Veeam have just released Veeam O365 v5a.Release notes here:KB4078: Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 5.0 cumulative patch KB4078 If you followed my previous post regarding issues, we’re currently testing to see if this resolves them.(Veeam Backup for Office 365 V5 Show stopping bug | Veeam Community Resource Hub)

Any talk of adding this to config backup function? I know to add a file copy job for config db backups but an unnecessary step I think and always the risk of forgetting this?

Currently Cloud Connect doesn’t support direct backup CIFS share to this repository. Currently my workaround is;CIFS share > robo copy local > Veeam agent backup to Cloud Connect Is there an alternative? And will CIFS share backup will be supported in the near future directly to an Cloud Connect repository?

 Hi all i have Problem to Connect Veeam to SharePoint Server to Restore Collection Site !i have Microsoft Hyper-V Are content:Windwows Server 2016 is Domain Conttrol and windows server 2016 is sharepoint 2016and Windows Server 2016 is Sql 2017 and veeam Server 9.5 u4 hosting at windows server 2016when i try to restore site collection appear falied to connect sharepoint server  

One thing that I find really useful if you’re moving a small VM for a small customer that doesn’t have a VCenter to a new Vsphere host is to just simply connect the the two ESXi hosts in Veeam:Add both hosts in the Virtual Infrastructure Create a replication job between the old host and the new host If it runs rather slow let it run for a few days.  Determine a small outage window where you’ll have the customer stop accessing data on the old host.  Do one more replication job. Shut the old VM down in the old host Power on the new server on the new host.It’s important to not use the replica_ prefix or suffix just for the sake of simplicity. A lot of times focus is on larger customers and how to vmotion this or that but sometimes it’s nice to think about how small customers can be served too.  Using Veeam for that is a life saver.

Hey guys!As promised, I’m starting a Friday Funday thread! This is completely and totally off topic space. Let’s share Christmas pics, decorations, trees, first snow, and everything around New Year and Christmas theme!   

Hi, I have configured a backup job on all Teams and on first run, i am alerted the mailbox is already being protected by another job. 11-12-2020 11:04:59 :: Processing mailbox XXX completed with warning: Mailbox is already processed by another job This is correct, as i have a backup job doing backup of all mailboxes every 4 hours. What is best pracgtice? To do complete Teams backup including the mailbox in one job, and on another job do all my mailboxes and exclude the Teams mailboxes? As of now where i have the Teams mailbox backup done by another job, how would a Team site restore be done?  RegardsRobert
