Multiple Tape Servers Managing Single Multi-Drive Library

Anyone have a need for this:Currently customers have 2 options when connecting a Tape Server to a Tape Library1: Physical Tape Server: attached to the Library/FC2: Multiple Virtual Tape Servers: partitioning the tape library so each Tape Server (VM) will see only select drives, and slots.Either way would maximize the throughput of data transference. Currently having 1 VM as Tape Server does not maximize the libraries efficiency throughput.https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=110You can add multiple tape servers to the same installation of Veeam Backup & Replication. But mind that you cannot add one tape library to two different tape servers and write data to it from both tape servers.Would this work: Ability to have multiple tape servers within single VBR see and manage same multi-drive tape libraryTo optimize the use of libraries and drives, it should be supported between multiple Tape Servers within a single VBR. Although the library’s media changer is controlled b

VBO365: Object reference not set to an instance of an object (Teams)

I have just discovered on Twitter that there’s currently a problem with Teams Backup in Veeam Backup for Office 365 which could affect many installations.It looks like Microsoft did change something on their side and so Teams backup is failing with the following error: “Object reference not set to an instance of an object”If you are affected by this problem, you can request the hotfix from Veeam Support.Here is the corresponding R&D forums topic: https://forums.veeam.com/veeam-backup-for-office-365-f47/teams-backup-failing-with-object-reference-not-set-to-an-instance-of-an-object-t76162.html

Long running copyjobs seem to "start over"

Hi, everyone I have some copyjobs that have been running for a significant amount of time due to a catchup-scenario we are in. I have noticed that on some of the jobs, it seems as if they start over. I check the jobs at some point the next day, and instead of the “Last Run” column showing days, I will see 8 hours ago, 3 hours ago, etc. The job will still be in running status. But it also looks like the job may not have started over. These jobs are immediate copy.

New Storage Integrations for Veeam v11

As many of you know Gostev sends out his weekly newsletter Sunday nights and there is some newly tested storage integrations. If you use any of the following check it out -From “The Word From Gostev” newsletter:A few storage integration news next. Our QC has completed qualification of the following new storage offerings and firmware versions and we've declared their official support right with the current Veeam Backup & Replication version 11:• HPE Alletra 9000 which is a new storage based on Primera OS is now fully supported for storage snapshot integration functionality. Until the UI has been updated, register it as an HPE 3PAR storage. Note this does not include Alletra 6000 which despite the similar name is based on a different OS. We have some lab time scheduled with HPE at the end of this month, after which we should have a good idea of the work required (if any) and so the target release for Alletra 6000 support.• HPE Primera with Primera OS 4.3 is now supported for storage

Veeam Sizing for Repository Needed

Hello Veeam, I would like to ask regarding on how to size repository needed for Veeam via http://rps.dewin.me/If customer gave the data size that needs to backup which is 28tb and backup policy must have 2YR retention and the sched will be 24months Full, 4 weekly Full and 7 Daily incremental.So technically I will create a "Backup Copy Job GFS” in Dewin, and will enter 24 in Months the total for that one is 219.2TB, will create another one for weekly will enter 4 in Weekly and total of 44.2 TB, and last for Daily incremental will select "Forever Incremental” and retention will be 7 and total of 31.89 TB. For all type of backup i checked the Refs/XFS, 10% conservative for change rate, and 50% on data left after reduction. So it means i will add the total for all and that is equivalent to 295.29 TB of storage. So i need a total of 295.29 TB with 2YR retention? I think is is too much give that Veeam have dedup/compress features, if you will size can you share the details as well. Thanks

Garbage Files in Veeam and Cisco UCS

I ran a report in Veeam and found out that there were several garbage files in Veeam. But, we have CISCO UCS sentinal snapshots. Do you think that what Veeam shows in Garbage files could include the Sentinel Snapshots also? As, we do not want to delete the Sentinel snapshots in UCS which might be appearing as Garbage files in Veeam. Anyone could explain more about this Garbage file and which one we should delete.

Training/Studying: What do you use and why?

Hey everyone, Open discussion today, not just for Veeam but for technology as a whole, what do you use to train and why is that the tool of choice for you? I’d like this to become a good resource for fellow Veeamers to become a launchpad to get started with technologies, as Veeam supports more platforms, the systems we can be dealing with extend as a direct result, so it’s beneficial if we can find our ideal ways of learning and where to go from learning core concepts up to the advanced intricate details of these systems. It’s not always possible for people to have access to corporate resources for testing so bonus points for any cheap/free resources! For example:Microsoft 365/Azure: I have a few favourite YouTubers such as John Savill (https://youtube.com/c/NTFAQGuy) that I’ll use for sprawling concepts such as Azure Kubernetes. Then I’ll use Microsoft Learn for a mixture of lab exercises and walk throughs. Then when I want to start playing with more advanced topics I’ll use my O365/A

Veeam Service Provider Rental Licensing Questions

Require some clarification on Veeam Rental licensing. Do rental licenses follow the same offering as the Veeam Universal License (VUL) offering listed in the Veeam Licensing Policy? Meaning, for every 1 license of Veeam Backup & Replication, they are offered in packs of 10 instances? We report per workload type (VM, Workstation) on a monthly basis to our aggregator. With that said, does that mean it’s a 1:1 ratio for rental licenses? for every protected workload you have to license per unit (VM, Server, Workstation).Generally a little confused with the different offerings between commercial and rental, and whether rental licenses follow the VUL offering.

Veeam Datastore Remaining Capacity

Hello Veeam Community, If customer have 500gb left in their datastore, how can I know or compute If how many days/months the 500gb will be? Assuming the daily trend average backup size is 900gb definitely it will reduce since there is dedup and compress in Veeam and have forever incremental sched. Thanks

The repository machine is an older desktop PC where I have installed 4 x 1TB SATA HDD. How do I have to configure the initial configuration script of Ubuntu in order to realize a 100GB RAID10 for the OS and the remaining space as RAID10 for the backup files? BRFrank

Veeam O365 how to delete some specific repository data like Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams, etc.

Hello, We have Veeam O365 5b (5.0.1.225). By mistake we enabled the backup job for the entire organization, so that means it includes Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams, etc. and now our Repository disk is full.We need to do a clean-up of the repository disk, in order to leave just emails (users, groups, shared mailboxes, archives, etc.) and delete all data of Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams, etc. Finally create a job only for emails (users, groups, shared mailboxes, archives, etc.)How can I do that?Thanks for your help, Omar De Souza.
