Hello,I’m learning for the VMCE Exam. There’s a question with this correct answer: Question: An infrastructure with 50 VMs has a power outage. After the VMware cluster hast booted up again, three large VMs seem to be stuck in a boot loop.Assuming only the OS is installed on the VM OS disk, which method would require the least amount of backup data transferred to allow the VMs to boot? Correct answer: Perform a Virtual Disk Restore with the quick rollback feature disabled. Why it’s not with the quick rollback feature enabled? 

 Dear Community did anyone face this issue while installing the new Veeam One? Need your best guideline in the logs file i can see that  

Hello to community. I have question regarding Veeam SQL plugin. Is it possible and supported to use Veeam proxy when configuring SQL plugin. Thanks to everyone. 

Unable to see DB backups from Enterprise Manager or VBR when using Veeam's SQL plugin for SSMS.Not sure if this is by design to allow DBA full control of their backup and restore processes or I’m just missing something here. Thanks again for all your inputs.

Hi everyone,I have 2 servers with VBR and I’m trying to connect one of those as a backup proxy of the other, so i can manage backups from a single backup server and disable the other one. adding the server as general purpose and CDP proxy works just fine but when I try to add it as vmware proxy it shows me an error message “Transport service is unavailable”. I checked, the service is online and correctly listens on the default port (matter of fact it works as general purpose and cdp proxy, as stated above). The server runs on the very esxi host I’m trying to backup, same hypervisor this server backups daily with no trouble. I updated and rebooted the server with no success. I cannot understand the problem. Can it be because they are slightly different versions?The server that has the problem is versio

I have been using the free version of the Agent to back up a Windows 11 PC for some time. At some point recently - unfortunately I’m not sure exactly when - it stopped working with the following being displayed:I have triedupdating to the latest version of the agent Checking both the source and destination disks for errors reformatting the destination disk and re-registering it.Nothing seems to work and there is nothing in the way of an error log to indicate where the problem lies. Any ideas?

Hey community!I wanted to share my latest blog below that dives into the alarming trends of cybercrime—where 75% of organizations are facing cyberattacks, and it’s often their backup repositories that are targeted!Staying informed is a must, and training and certifications have never been more important. In this post, I speak about how getting the right skills through Veeam’s new training suite for Veeam Data Platform v12 can empower IT teams and improve an organization’s defenses against these threats. We talk about how training benefits not just individual growth but also helps build a strong, resilient workforce ready to face cyber risks (trained team happy team).This is a must-read for anyone looking to boost their expertise in data protection and recovery.Check it out, and I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Hi all,  I am trying to get support with Veeam but they are giving me the run around (we have a valid license but apparently its not assigned correctly and our account manager is away until the 18th) so I thought id ask here. But I am a bit disappointed Veeam has always been great with support and regardless always tried to help :( Veeam ticket is Case # 07501120  I am getting the following error Error: 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 This Repo has been working for over a month, no blip or issues. However, just today it started having an issue. The only thing that has changed is I am using a proxy now rather than the backup server direct. I rebooted the immutable repo and Veeam was happy again. However, logged on this afternoon and it says disconnected

Hi everyone!For those of you using storage servers with local direct attached storage, I would love to know which RAID level you are using?It would be good to learn more about your setup, such as:Are you using HDD or SSD? How many disks do you use? One big RAID or multiples?Finally, why did you choose this RAID level?

Good morning,I am using Veeam B&R CE, and use to backup my Proxmox VMs.My Homeassistant VM after a restore is able to start, but it goes directly in restore mode so it in unaccessible.Someone else experience the problem?Thanks a lot,A.

Dear All,Have a nice day.  I found a different on veeam backup version on my test environment 11 vs 12.2 on file save name. In the early version it’s saved as a job name single file but now it’s saved as multiple .vm name file, no jobs name. One job is created and this job has 10 VM, there will be 10 backup files showing.  It's looking odds lot of files.I want to show it as the previous one in a single file. Is it possible? pls check the image. Thanks,Biplob

I am working on a Veeam DR doc. I would like to be able to bring up the DR environment in a controlled manner to the point of only enabling the jobs I want to enable.  I know it can be easily done by simply right clicking and disabling the jobs or by PowerShell script. My concern is jobs kicking off as soon as the DR instance is up and not being able to disable them before they start failing. Because before anything we need to validate the environment, proxies, repositories, etc.  Simply failing over the prod system will mean ALL the services and processes will start when the system boots. The feedback I received from support is to stop the Veeam Backup Service.  However, from what I understand I do not have the ability to disable jobs while the Veeam Backup Service is offline. Is there a scheduler service that can be stopped? Ideally, at least for the DR test, we would like to keep jobs from running yet be able to restore systems.While an actual failover is something that sh

The malware detection consistently flags the same files with known malware extensions as suspicious. Despite marking the servers clean multiple times, the detections persist. Is this behavior intended or possibly a bug?

I have a device that has Veeam for Windows installed. I can’t upgrade it as it fails and if I try to uninstall it from control panel it fails saying it can’t find the MSI. Is there an uninstall tool for Veeam?

Hi community, Case number: 07501750After upgrading to Veeam BR 12.2.0.334 (I was on v11 before) my Surebackup Job stopped working with error:“Error: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: destination”I’m using “Advanced single-host” with two production networks and I have “Application Group” with single VM.I’ve tried recreating Virtual Lab, Application Group but the error still persists, it looks like it has problems with adding route? Value cannot be null.Parameter name: destination (System.ArgumentNullException)at Veeam.Backup.Common.CRouteUtilityItem..ctor(String destination, String netmask, String gateway) But routes are appearing when I put “route print” on windows cmd.Is this a bug or am I missing something in V12?  

​Hi all,I’m looking at the following guide I was recommended on one of my previous posts (great guide btw).Does anyone know the logic behind the assignment of the masquerade IP? I can’t seem to understand where Veeam pulls this from nor find any explanation as to the logic behind it.Many thanks in advance.​

Backup job is set to 2 restore point and it has backup job (.vib) file created everyday. There is shortage of space and need to reduce backup jobs. If I choose the restore point it is picking up restore point for a month. Is there is a way to reduce the number of days of backup?

INTRODUCTION As you know, the latest version of Veeam Backup & Replication, that is 12.1.2.172, was released last May 21.Among the various new features and security patches, the aspect I would like to elaborate on is this:Security & Compliance AnalyzerA new backup infrastructure check was added to ensure that the PostgreSQL instance hosting the configuration database has been configured with the recommended settings. These settings can be applied with the Set-VBRPSQLDatabaseServerLimits cmdlet.This new check just verifies that the recommended settings for PosgreSQL are actually applied to our backup server.But what does it mean in detail? INFRASTRUCTURE CHECK DETAILSWe know that since version 12 of VBR, the database that is installed by default is PostgreSQL and no longer t

I am receiving the following error and backups are failing on an air-gapped system.Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint ‘PK_Backup_Model_GuestDatabaseToOibLinks’. Cannotinsert duplicate key in object ‘Database.table’.  The duplicate key value is ‘long string of numbers’.  The statement has been terminated.  Is the only fix for this to rebuild the DB?  TIA
