Hi, my backup is showing this error, can someone please help me? Both machines are VMs in Hyper-V.  

I read in the news recently that Veeam has bought Securiti AI, which is going to have a direct impact on its data protection offering. This deal is a game-changer for Veeam's strategy, combining data resilience with data security.But what does Securiti AI do, and why did Veeam decide to buy it?Securiti AI is a big name in the industry, and they focus on Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), privacy and data governance. With a spent about £1.725 billion in total Veeam's big plan is to bring together their data resilience (which they're really good at – backup and recovery) with data security (Securiti AI's thing).So, why's this important for Veeam?I think this purchase is meant to create one command centre where they can use DSPM on data in use and on backup files as well. This means that sensitive data (PII, GDPR-compliant data) can be easily identified in backups, and the compliance and security posture of the backup data itself can also be verified.So not only can customers restor

 "Failed to establish connection: no valid IP addresses were found. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 10.x.x.x:10005"The problem here is my Veeam VM is not on that network. It is only home network 192.x.x.x using  hyper-v switch.  The network referenced in the error strictly a closed vlan for security cams which is a secondary nic on the host server.  The host server and domain controller backup fine but the win11 clients Veeam keeps trying to use secondary nic which is not connected to the vm. AD DNS does not have any enters for the other network.  so somehow it Veeam is trying to use the host server nics at will.I have set the global traffic preferred network to the home network. makes non difference disabled all firewalls on all devices not joy same error.  my only other thought would be to force all the firewall rules to a scope for th

I back up our Organization sites nightly. Sometimes I get a warning on a job that a site was deleted and I have to go into the job and remove the deleted site from the backup. Is there any way for deleted sites to just be removed from the backup automatically? So the program is only backing up what exists?  Note that currently ‘select objects to back up’ is set to ‘back up the following objects’ which is 23 of 25 sites. So I don’t have ‘Back up entire organization’ selected. Although would that maybe be my fix and dynamically adjust what sites are available to back up? 

We use paid Veeam B&R v12.x (VUL/Essentials) to back up NetApp ONTAP SMB/NFS to a local repo and are evaluating off-site immutable copies via SOBR + S3/Wasabi/Azure (Object Lock) vs Cloud Connect (VCSP). What’s your real-world take on job layout (per-share vs per-volume), snapshots, NAS proxies, performance and €/TB/month, plus restore/ACL fidelity, cross-protocol restores, and immutability/lifecycle gotchas? Any proven tuning or pitfalls to avoid?

Hi,My backup job, for instance, XYZ fails with these messages:   Question: What could cause snapshot creation to fail in Veeam Backup for Google Cloud, and what should I check first?   ​

Can we get backup status for VDC M365 using powershell like in VBR?

Hello.I tried to uninstall 6.3.2.1205 on Windows Server 2019. Control panel / Uninstall programs... Uninstallation reported that there are more users logged in. I clicked cancel uninstallation. Veeam disappeared from list of installed Programs. When I tried to install 6.3.2.1302 the error pops up »The installation cannot be updated automatically. Please contact Veeam support for assistance with manual update. «I did several reboots. I removed Veeam folders from Program Files and ProgramData, I removed Veeam key from registry (Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam). Still “cannot be updated…”How can I convince Veeam Agent installer that I do not want to update. I just want to freshly install or repair installation.Regards, Tomaž

Hi,I’m new to Veeam family and doing initial deployment.What is recommendation for backup jobs - one job for one VM? or group more VMs which could be same schema of backup in one backup job? how much it affects deduplication?Is ReFS deduplication compatible with also enabled job deduplication? Could be both enabled?Is there any report of job deduplication? for me it looks it does not deduplicate anything.Thanks

Does VAMWF support scheduled backup jobs?  I was able to create one with the GUI, but it didn’t run, probably because there was no entry in Task Scheduler.

Hi Veeam Community,I’m running into a critical issue with my backups and need help.Error Details:Unable to apply retention policy: failed to delete backup filesError: Failed to call RPC function 'FcIsExists': The specified network name is no longer available.Environment:Veeam Backup & Replication: v12.3.2.3617 Backup Repository: NAS OS: Windows 10What I’ve tried:Deleted ~300GB of old backup files to free up space. Verified repository free space. Restarted Veeam services and checked network connectivity.Despite this, all backups are failing. The error seems tied to retention policy cleanup and possibly network access to the NAS.

Good afternoon, all!My customer is at the very front edge of a complete virtualization refresh - hardware, software, virtualization platform, the whole picture.We’re currently using Veeam B&R and VeeamONE to support our VMware stack, with an onsite performance layer and a cloud storage tier for long-term archiving.If we moved to Hyper-V or Nutanix, would we be able to retain our VMware-based backups for file and data recovery or would we need to repatriate and convert?Thanks!

I get the error “30.10.2025 09:52:47 Error    [veeam-infra.infra.local] Failed to synchronize update settings.

Hello everyone, I am trying to connect the Veeam software appliance and my NAS via iSCSI. It won't work directly, so I installed Veeam Infrastructure Server, where I tried to connect the NAS, but I have no idea how to connect it there. I looked through the documentation, but couldn't find anything. Could you please advise me?Thank you in advance.

Hi,I have installed an agent 6.3.2.1207 on Oracle Linux 7.9, Kernel 5.4.17-2136 el7 uek.Backup failed with cannot load module veeamsnap.veeamsnap module was installed but cannot be loaded. Maybe due to kernel incompatibility. I cannot find useful information on howto get this running, on this Linux Version with that kernel.Can anyone help? Rene

Not sure if many are aware but I found this out today with my VHRs deployed from the JeOS ISO that the WebUI on port 10443 is disabled by default so you cannot connect to it.  You need to log in via a console (if a VM) and enable it to connect.  You will see a banner at the top about disabling once you are done which is just a click.Learning something new each day with v13. 😎

Backup Job using Storage Snapshot Unable to Find Ontap SnapMirror Relationship for Secondary Target. Backup finished with Warning: Cannot find any relevant ONTAP SnapMirror and SnapVault relationships   Storage Replication between the Source and Target destinations is working. I was looking at the job log and saw that Veeam was able to identify Primary SnapProtections.   There were lines showing WARNING: Replication of all disk snapshots of vm asdasdfasf is not possible for ‘Snapshot Replication’. Thanks again for your input as to possible reasons why this is happening.  

Fresh v13 build for VBR, EM and Veeam ONE.Veeam ONE is installed on windows 2025 with a seperate win2025 SQL server.Install is all good but when running the Veeam ONE client and I click ADD SERVER to add the VBR server, this opens a web interface to veeam one. Once logged in, I get this:infrastructure is missing and I can click review data sources, when I click this I get error “failed to add the virtual infrastructure. The user account does not have the required permissions”.The user does have permissions, local admin, in the veeam administrators group as well. In the top corner of the web UI it also shows the user then underneath “restricted permissions user”.Very odd…..anyone see this?

Wondering if anyone has done this before where we need to failover an Org in vCloud Direcotor to a target vCloud Director as a DR.  This would need to failover in a specific order as well has have some time delays between failovers.   And ofcourse failback to finish it up.   I have 28 sub-tenants that need this functionality.  Any help would be appreciated.   I just finished standing up the Veeam Orchestrator to see if that will work at all, it doesn’t look promising based on the documentation I’ve read so far.   Currently we need to failover manually from the Replicas Ready view.   A typical failover today would be 1. failover the fw 2. failover dc and check time upon powerup 3.  failover other dependencies like sql or rdsgateway, then the remaining vms behind the dependencies or that don’t have one.

Hi Community, I’m facing an issue where Veeam ONE Reporting Service (VeeamRSS.exe) cannot communicate with Veeam ONE Monitoring Service (VeeamDCS.exe). The error message states:  The Monitoring service appears to be stopped or inaccessible. Has anyone encountered this before? What could cause the Monitoring service to become unavailable? Any insights or best practices to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Kindly note that support case already been open for this.  

I just updated the Veeam Agent version to 6.3.2.1302 on my home computer. I don't use a server because it's a single machine with a single backup job, although I do use the Community Edition in other environments.I re-burned the recovery agent to a USB drive, and when I tested it, neither the keyboard nor the mouse worked. The BIOS recognizes them fine, but when the agent starts loading, it disconnects them.I've tried having up to three different keyboards connected to different USB drives, and re-burning the USB drive four times, making sure the option to copy drivers is enabled, but nothing seems to work. I've never had this problem on this computer before.With this and the previous bug that prevented me from recovering backups from a network drive, which has since been fixed, I'm starting to think I spend more time trying to fix Veeam errors than actually using it.Any ideas on how to fix this?

Since this product is part of the Veeam family now I headed over to checkout what there was on the website. Very interesting courses. I did the ones that they offer to non customers and wrote for the other two requests to be allowed in given the fact that they really could use some Veeam evangelists on their side now 😁. We will see if they give in. Either way head over to their site and check out the courses, very interesting stuff https://education.securiti.ai/certifications/ai-governance/
