Backup Configuration job warning after upgrade to VBR12 RTM

Any idea for this? It’s pure Hyper-V with Azure, not AWS. 1/31/2023 10:06:49 AM Warning Failed to connect to AWS plug-in: Failed to login to platform service: The HTTP resource that matches the request URI 'https://vbr11:9402/api/v1/account/login' is not supported.

VBR V12: Keep VBR and Enterprise Manager on same database engine

Just a quick tip regarding the database used for Veeam Backup & Replication and Enterprise Manager. You need to keep both on the same database engine, so either on Microsoft SQL or PostgreSQL. If you mix both database types, you will be presented with a warning when you try to add a VBR server to EM:If you’re planing to migrate from Microsoft SQL to PostgreSQL, then keep in mind to also migrate the Enterprise Manager database.You can also run into this problem when setting up a new Enterprise Manager as it will by default install and use PostgreSQL. In that case either select a different database during the setup or alter the database connection with the “Configuration Database Connection Settings” utility. I haven’t read about this requirement so far, but the helpcenter mentions it:Note that configuration databases of the Enterprise Manager server and backup servers added to the Enterprise Manager infrastructure must use the same database engine.https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/b

How can I identify VMs that were never properly configured for backups. Or somehow aren't being backed up at the frequency intended?

Create a knowledge graph with data from my Veeam backup servers in order to verify that backups were configured and running for intended VMs. For example: The data could be compared via query against data in your IT Asset Management that defines which machines are supposed to be protected.You may find it helpful to also have your VMware data within your graph

Data Protection and lifecycle management

I’m a bit confused as to where the line is drawn between VEEAM and S3 compatible cloud storage providers and their data protection settings. Does VEEAM do the settings for data retention and immutability, or should those be set in the cloud storage provider bucket? Or is it a mash up of both?AKA; I can set Immutability in WASABI at the bucket. If I do not set the bucket immutability there, will VEEAM set it for me if it is configured for immutability or retention?I’m trying to figure out who controls the data lifecycle / protection. Or what the correct way to manage it is.Thanks, *Dave

Restoring Exchange Server 2013 Item, JetError -582

Sorry to bother the community again… but today i started to do restore-tests from successfull backups and ran into JetError -582. I cant find anything about this error.What I did:I tried to restore a single item from our scheduled exchange server backup. Everything worked until the database should have been opened. The backup I tried to restore from was the most recent and finished without warnings or errors.  It was an incremental backup. 3 hours before the faulty backup I did a manual incremental backup too (just for testing). Restoring items from this backup was successfull.Is there a possibility to repair the faulty backup / database / missing logfiles?Will all further incremental backups be faulty?Will a full backup solve this problem?Thankes a lot in advance :)

gMSA V12

Now that 12 is out and we can officially get our hands on gMSA it seems the documentation is a bit lacking. My migration to V12 went smooth and EASY! Didn’t even get to finish my lunch before it had completed. I am using gMSA within my environment for other applications so I have familiarity with this functionality. I was able to link the gMSA within the Managed Credentials (like normally), however I don’t see gMSA being an option for linking to a physical agent job within V12. I just see the typical standard account settings. I made sure my physical agents are on version 6 now and also did a rescan of them, which then did another transport update. I then updated the running services to use the gMSA account on the actual veeam services, but again nothing is showing up.  Anyone have any insight to this before I open a case on this?

Question about Custom reports, VeeamOne

Hi all, As I am new to this community hub I would like to start with a discussion about the VeeamOne custom reporting. How cool would it be to collect all your favorite reports and send them in one file. Well, it’s possible but I am struggling a bit with the lay-out of the PDF, Excel file and Word file that will be generated by VeeamOne.I was hoping that it would be fixed in v12 but apparently they didn’t manage or maybe even didn’t know about it.So what is happening?By generating a report by custom report builder, the lay-out is much different then how it is supposed to be. Every grapic, every table, summary and overview will be used on one full page. We can not send this output to our clients that contains 40 pages more then nesseccary. I wonder if people are strugling with this issue and if there is a fix available.

Create Account Veeam

Hi, I already create an account for my client and then they should send an email of invitation link to my client email address but my client do not received the invitation link. The next step is create password for the account but I cannot proceed to the next step because my client do not received the invitation link email.I tried to re-register using the same email address but it said the email already been used. There is an option to restore access to your account, I click the option and it asked an email address. I put my client email address, but it said “Failed to send”. Is there anything I can do to login to my client account?

V12 Backup stuck in 90 percent

For the second time in two days backup is stuck at 90 or 91 percent. Software is running, but the backup job is stuck in concrete. I restarted veeam, I restarted veeam services and backup server, nothing helped, its stuck. I have two servers to backup. yesterday backup was stuck in win2012r2 exchange server backup; today its the win2016 fileserver. today veeam backuped the data disk successfully, but the system disk not. the exchange server is on the system disk. maybe that info helps. it seems to be a problem with backuping windows (and not data).Case-Nr.05908107

Veeam instant recovery not finalized

Hello all,This is a weird situation. A couple months ago, we had a production system issue and we used Veeam’s instant recovery to bring a database server back online. Being a small IT shop, once the server was up and available we transitioned to user support and long story short, we never finalized the restore and moved to production. Fast forward a couple of months and we were hit by a ransomware attack and all of our VM files (.vmdk, .vmx etc) have been encrypted. We were able to find a snapshot of our storage that seems to be intact from a few days before the attack, but the actual files in that snapshot for this particular server do not boot, which is what it did to trigger the instant recovery months ago.My question is, where would this VM have been running? Is there a hope of it also being on the snapshot somewhere? We do not have a well-versed Veeam person on staff, our entire IT department has been here a maximum of 4 years and none of us were involved in the deployment of thi

Horizon VDI & RDSH backup best practices

Hello everyone,If we are going to use Veeam to backup VDI and RDSH on vSAN cluster, what are the recommendations for RDSH and VDI (Full, linked, instant) clones backup? I think backup linked and instant clones doesn’t make sense, we can backup gold images, full clones, users profiles. I appreciate your feedback and if there is validated design document for this solution to be shared.

V12 - Explorers Compatibility

Hi guys,a reminder for Service Providers like me who have VBO365 installation on the same VCC server: after upgrading to V12 it is necessary to reinstall Veeam Exlporers for Exchange, Sharepoint and Teams compatible with the installed version of VBO365.To do this:1) Open a cmd with administrative permissions2) Pull up the list of installed programs with the command "wmic product list brief > C:\temp\installed.txt"3) Uninstall the desired explorer with the command "msiexec /x {ProductCode}"4) Once the three programs have been uninstalled, you can proceed with reinstalling the old Explorers. You can find the executables by mounting the ISO of your version of VBO365 inside the "Explorers" folder. Enjoy! 💚
