Hello, On new V13 VSA installation, I would like to backup some VMs (inside domain) with AAIP enabled.When I try it as I did with V12, it doesn’t work. My VSA is not in a domain.I saw for authentication only Kerberos or certificates can be used (from Veeam deployment kit) because NTLM is removed.Does that mean I need to add my VBR server to the production domain if I don’t want to use Veeam deployment kit on all my Windows VMs ?  I don’t find a way for my backup to work with AAIP enabled while I’m using domain\user account with correct privileges.I have this error : 29/05/2026 14:33:16 Failed : Failed to connect via Administrative share.Host: [COMPUTER.domain.com]. (Failed to connect to the guest OS. [Failed to connect to guest agent. Errors: 'Samba failed with error: NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_DOMAIN [stderr: Kinit for administrateur@DOMAIN to access COMPUTER.domain.comfailed: Cannot find KDC for requested r

They want a detailed description but truncate it at about 2.000 characters :("Provide a detailed issue description and error messages." field does not accept more than that.Usually I prepare my issues in text editor and in the end copy/paste into support portal.Now I realize only half of it made it through while I don't have my original any more.I'd expect the GUI at least to give a warning. Noone serious will type his message into some web form initially and realize the input no longer works as he’s typing live.Who can fix that? Open a case for it? ;)

We are facing an issue where SentinelOne is blocking our Veeam Mount Server, even when the operation is happening on the same server (VBR Windows).These errors occurred after attempting a File Level Restore (FLR):   We tested using Interoperability mode, but the error persisted. We then tested using Performance mode, and the restore was successfully mounted.  Has anyone experienced this behavior before or found a workaround?

How can I get VAW to power the computer on (from shutdown, not from sleep or hibernate)?I set the backup to turn the system on at 01:30 and run the backup, but it actually started when I switched the computer on later in the morning.Is there some Windows registry, or BIOS setting that is needed?Thanks, David 

Hi there!I`ve been thinking a bit about this, and finally the time has come to share it with you all.After trying different apps, AI, classrooms, etc… it came to my mind,Why dont give this a shot?We are world wide, many languajes and tons of native people, with differet accents and slangs, but we do share something in common, IT and Veeam love! the idea is simple, to create different conversation groups depending on the Languaje you want to practice / learn.Im more than happy to share some of my time if somebody wants to practice some Spanish.I know we do have French, Dutch, German, English, Portuguese, Italian (😉), and many others…What do you think?Is it something you may be interested in?Summer is comming (for me) and would be a great time for sharing some experiences and give some time to others.cheers.Luis F. 

Hello Team,I am using Veeam Agent / Veeam Backup and Replication for backup storage on a NAS.I noticed that in my backup repository folder, Veeam creates:.VBK full backup files multiple .VIB incremental backup files .VBM metadata filesMy question is:Why are there multiple .VBK files stored in the same backup folder?Are these incremental restore points expected behavior?Also:Will Veeam automatically delete old .VBK and .VIB files according to the retention policy? Is it safe to manually delete multiple or older .VBK files from the repository folder if storage becomes low? How does Veeam manage the backup chain cleanup process?I want to better understand how Veeam handles incremental backup retention and storage management.Thank you.

Hello everyone,I need some help with an issue and hope I won’t have to contact support.  I’m seeing several failures on a file backup with the following error message:Failed to perform repair backup Error: Agent: Failed to process method {NasMaster.TransformMeta}: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.Error: Agent: Failed to process method {NasMaster.TransformMeta}: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.Processing finished with errors  I checked the logs, and the only thing that stands out are warnings like:Masks are not applicable for the server pathSo I understand that my exclusions cannot be taken into account. I can’t seem to find a solution; I ran a Backup health check which returned the error:Failed to perform repairing backup Error: Agent: Failed to process method {NasMaster.TransformMeta}: The process cannot a

I want the Hyper-V VMs backed up to restore each of the 6  (600GB+)I want the Windows 2022 Standard Server to be bare metal recoveredWhat is the best way of doing it? 

Hi All, I really hope someone can help! I have Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 which is now running in community edition. I had two backup jobs, S3 to Wasabi and they have been deleted. I can see the repositories contain large amounts of data but when I attempt to restore files utilising the Veeam M365 console it only shows one restore point date.Previous backup jobs (excluding the deleted backup jobs) I had created and ran a backup copy from the existing backup job from Wasabi to a newly created Azure storage account and this appears to have worked. As I no longer have the backup jobs, what are my options of being able to restore these backups once I no longer have access to Wasabi? Thank you,Scott

Hi community! I’m working on an architecture to implement VRO with a Clean Room. I ll be in this kind of topology :  I notice in the prerequisites, this point : “The current release of Veeam Recovery Orchestrator (v 13.0.1) requires at minimum an initial connection to the production vCenter to gather inventory and create restore plans using vSphere tags.Connection to the production VBR is optional and only required to create restore plans based on backup jobs.”The principle of a clean room is to have an envir

Could you please help with the script in powershell to fetch the backup health check / maintenance schedule for backup jobs and the status or can this be fetched from Veeam ONE ?

I am trying to add a Microsoft Azure Stack Hub account to Veeam Backup & Replication v13, but I do not see any option to add Azure Stack Hub under Cloud Infrastructure or Add Server.I also could not find any official Veeam v13 documentation related to Azure Stack Hub integration or support.Has anyone successfully configured Azure Stack Hub with Veeam v13?Is Azure Stack Hub still supported in version 13, or has the feature been removed/changed?Any guidance or documentation would be appreciated.

Hello!I look through logs, and see this texttransport mode: [hotadd], max sectors to read/write: [8192], async I/O: [unsupported]The backup operation ends successfully, but why could possibly async I/O be unsupported for hotadd? I've changed VBR VM (it's a Default Proxy) SCSI Controller type to VMware Paravirtual and it didn't help and sincerely I'm out of options to guess. Can you suggest me a direction to dig?

Quick question.How do I view the attachments that I previously uploaded to a case?Just to make sure they're there.I have a feeling attachments from my email responses do not get attached to the case (although noone reacts on it even though I explicitly refer to those filenames) I’m asking because I had a Zoom session with one of the support guys and he only looked at my screen for a second before telling me how to proceed, however it was the exact screen I already attached to one of my responses as an e-mail attachment.Thanks.

Can someone please help me with VMCE information. I am looking for both the paths and roadmaps,  and all involved information associated with it. Also, any  links for practice questions that would be helpful. TIA.

I upgraded to Veeam 13 a few weeks ago.   I finished adding my 2.5G network and VLANs on Thursday.   My Ubuntu 24.04 servers are backing up fine.   Veeam 13 in my workgroup wants certificates now.  I had to spin up a Windows 2022 Standalone CA to create certificates for all Windows 10 and 11 workstations.   I will be creating the workstation certs from it today and installing them.   Any suggestions on getting Windows 11 to backup?  I hope the cert does the trick.  2.5G network is much faster.  I will post numbers tonight.  

Hi,we have Veeam Backup and Replication v13, Community Edition, Build 2067 on Microsoft Windows Server 2019 with Hyper-V.When I try to add a Veeam Data Cloud Vault from the Austria East Region I get the following error:The error occurs during authorization of the backup server after I login using Microsoft, including MFA and after I answer the question if I want to stay signed in (Yes or No has the same effect).If I add the same VDCV Repo on another installation of Veeam (different customer, paid version) it works.I installed the Veeam Console on the only VM of the server and I got the same error.AI suggested to check the version of a specific DLL, which is 2067.I installed a trial license, same error.I disabled all security filtering on the firewall temporarily and checked the logs.Any

Hello,I'm hitting a wall as we do not necessarily want to configure OS credentials for each and every single VM. Sure we can pre-deploy SSH keys, play with Tag to identify the Guest OS (different types of authentication between Windows/Linux) yadda yadda, but there must be a simpler way.I have tried with a Linux VM:1. installed deployment kit, we could just predeploy it everywhere automatically2. it listens on 6160 (installer service IIRC)3. When running a job using Guest OS credentials: "Use management agent" it doesn't even talk to 6160 but claims that it's falling back to trying to connect to guest since transport service is not availableWhy isn't it just installing it using installer service? Is it possible at all to use VBR in some kind of "agent" mode (while veeam optimally takes care of updating the agents as it sees fit)?Or do we have to use it in this shady ephemeral client "access-all and install whatever I like" mode?

Our company (based in Paris) was tasked with implementing a backup solution for a client located in Houston (United States), with the following objectives:- Backing up the client’s Hyper-V to a Dell EMC DataDomain storage array located in our Paris data center.- Local backup to a USB drive connected directly to the client’s Hyper-V.- The Veeam proxy is the client’s Hyper-VDuring the first full backup, we observed extremely long transfer times, far exceeding expectations.  Technical Solution: TCP Window OptimizationMethod for Calculating the Optimal TCP WindowTo maximize throughput, we applied the following formula:Optimal TCP window (in bytes) = Bandwidth (bytes/s) × Latency (seconds) Link data:Bandwidth: 1 Gbps = 131,072,000 bytes/sMeasured latency: 123 ms (0.123 s) Calculation:Optimal window = 131,072,000 × 0.123 ≈ **16,121,856 bytes**We rounded this

We tried accounts with local admin access to the VBR servers and VeeamOne, domain accounts with elevated privileges (plus local admin) and accounts with full admin VBR application rights and still got the permissions error. We followed this KB with no luck.  Whatever we do we get the permissions error.   https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/one/userguide/connection_to_backup_servers.html?ver=13 What rights do we need for this account to add the VBR server. Another note I was able to add the vCenter server with the vCenter Administrator account.

I hope this is the correct forum to ask this question. When you use VDC Vault as 3rd offsite copy for your backups, but want to write archive data for 5 year retention to Azure (same datacentre) - what costs do you incur (ingress/egress/transactional costs) when writing it off to archive storage? I have heard rumours of an archive tier coming into VDC Vault? 

Hi everyone, has anyone tried using OMV 8 (Debian 13.4) as a Linux backup repository for Veeam VBR v13? I checked the official documentation for VBR v13 compatibility, but it currently only lists support from 11.0 up to 13.1. Would I be safe to proceed with the OMV 7 to 8 upgrade?

What are the drawbacks or disadvantages of using Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows when performing backups to NAS storage? This includes considerations regarding storage, network speed, and reliability.
