Hello everyone,I'm new to this forum and using free Veeam agent on windows 10 and 11 to make a full backup to a synology DS224+ NAS. Both on latest firmware/version.But after the step finalizing the snapshot, I get the error message that veeam could not resolve the IP of the cifs share. But I can access the share via explorer and the veaam configuration files are safed to this share. So it's working.Did not find any threads for this problem.Appreciate your help and tipps!Best regards 

Hello,I am encountering a warning on my Veeam backups that Veeam "Cannot find EFI boot manager entry for EFI System Partition". The backups are otherwise successful.I am running Manjaro Linux, which I realize is not formally supported. I used Veeam successfully some time ago without issues, experimented with other backup solutions for a while, then came back to Veeam because honestly nothing works as well or as simply as it does. The last time I used Veeam, I was running a 5.x version, and I’ve since started using 6.1.0.1498.Here is some more detailed information about my issue:Specific Problem: When performing a Full System backup, Veeam will complain that it "Cannot find EFI boot manager entry for EFI System Partition GUID” followed by the GUID of my system’s EFI partition. System: Manjaro Linux (KDE) 5.12.211 Backup: Full System backup of 4 drives to an SMB share: nvme0n1p1 - EFI nvme0n1p2 - SWAP nvme0n1p3 - / sda1 - /home sdb1 - arbitrary data sdc1 - arbitrary data sdc2 - arb

Hello,third and last part of my article where I wanted to provide some information about immutability flowchart for HPE StoreOnce and use it with Veeam.Here are the previous posts:​Now I want to conclude with the workflow for HPE Dual Authorization and what is needed to consider when you want to complete a secure environment and minimize the chanches of data exfiltration.DOUBLE AUTHORIZATION WORKFLOW The following dual authorization process applies within the immutable backup infrastructure built with Veeam and HPE StoreOnce.Backup Admin submits one of the dual-authorization tasks to Veeam/HPE StoreOnce infrastructure.The user submits the request by specifying the tasks they wish to execute.The Security Officer gets involved if the request falls into the category of protected actions below:    Enabling or disabling dual authorization     Modifying the catalyst store     Deleting the catalyst store     System date and time settings     Creating, editing, and deleting OS role users      

Bonjour,Je viens d’installer et de découvrir Veeam Backup pour Office365, j’ai paramétré un JOB pour sauvegarder uniquement  l’organisation SHAREPOINT sur un disque dur Externe mais très souvent et voir tout le temps maintenant j’ai l’erreur “JetError -1022, JET_errDiskIO, Disk IO error” cette erreur est parlante mais j’ai déjà remplacé le disque a plusieurs reprise et il fonctionne très bien sur cette même machine avec un VEEAM AGENT. Avez vous une piste a me donner ? 

Hi Support,  want to ask any compatible issuse on Veeam Backup & Replication 12.1 and sap hana pugin 11.0.1.1261 ? unable to find any infromation from veeam official website . Thank in advance.

I need to migrate 12 Windows Server 2016 from Hyper-V to vcenter, can I do this with Veeam just restore from the last Hyper-v backup to vcenter?

I’ve recently gone through the process of upgrading my Veeam implementation from v11 to v12. Everything has upgraded correctly and I’ve even managed to get a hardened repository server upgraded successfully. My problem is that although all configured jobs are quite happily running and successfully completing under v12, the physical Veeam server running as an agent backup job fails. This was working previously before the upgrade. Is there any solution to this issue.

Hi all, I would like to continue talking about the technical aspects and authorization workflow for dual authentication related to the use of HPE StoreOnce and its immutability. Following the description of the less technical part covered in the previous article, we will look at some configuration aspects. TECHNICAL PRACTICES ON STOREONCEBelow we go on to describe the technical procedures for using immutability functions on StoreOnce.​​​​​​​REQUIREMENTSBefore proceeding to the configurations, it is good to reiterate what are the prerequisites necessary for the proper use of all the components needed to use immutability with StoreOnce.Minimum firmware version required: 4.3.2 (better 4.3.6 for MFA) Creation of user accounts with specific roles Two-factor authentication Enabling and configuring Dual Authorization Type of operations allowed The "Maximum ISV Controlled Data Retention" parameter must be set to 365000 in the Catalyst Store configuration. It is recommended to use incremental b

After a power failure a VM on vSphere 8 couldn’t be started. But that’s no problem as we have backups…As I tried to restore the VM the following errors occured: 10.04.2024 07:59:45 Error    Restore job failed Error: Invoke failed.

Title says it all Got a customer who advises they are running Windows dedupe on the local OS, and I can see the backup copy job is getting really poor compression on the VM. Anyone else have customers doing this and seeing similar results? ExampleSource VM data size = 868 GB Source VM VBK file = 863 GB 

Last month I got a POC request from my customer, they are looking for a new data protection solution to replace their current backup solution. The requirements are below.Backup storage should come with encryption and immutable features. The backup data retention is 31 days in on-perm. We target to have 7 days or more in object storage which will be managed by Cloud Service Provider. SQL transaction log backup will be happening for every 15 mins. For SQL backup, only backup the SQL instance and copy it into the object storage. The Cloud Service Provider cannot access the backup data directly from object storage Keep one data copy in two separate object storages. If both Veeam Backup Server and Veeam Respository are attached by ransomware, we can restore data from the object storage to the production server in HQ. The backup solution is fully supported with VMware vSphere 7.0 and 8.0.I prepared the following environment for this POC. HQ Site1 x Veeam Backup and Replication Server v121 x

I’ve installed Veeam with a 30 day evaluation license. It works fine for VMs. However, when I try to back up the physical host using a Windows Agent, I get the error:Managed session has failed: 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 192.1YY.1.XX:10005The endpoint running the agent can ping the backup server, and the backup server can ping the endpoint. They are all domain joined devices. There is no firewall between the endpoint and the server other than Windows Defencer with Advanced Security and all of the necessary Veeam in and out rules are present. However, the following command fails with message TcpTestSucceeded = False:Test-NetConnection -ComputerName backupServer.mynetwork.local -Port 10005 -InformationLevel DetailedThe backup server port 10005 is listening and not blocked by another application.

We have Veeam pushing a couple of Nutanix clusters.  Jobs are split between the clusters and Nutanix is replicating between the two clusters so if one goes down…Issue that we’re seeing is when Veeam is backing up a server, snaps are being created to do the backup. Replication between the two Nutanix clusters is seeing the snap and replicating it to the second node.  Since the snap doesn’t have a retention set, Nutanix is setting the snaps for 60 day retention.  When we’re starting to deal with file servers north of 20tb, this becomes and issue.  Is there anyway to force Veeam to set a short retention on snaps or is this something Nutanix should address?Thanks in advance.

Hi All, Anyone faced this issue or any fixes to resolve this. Am using Oracle plugin for Backup on windows VM, these are stuck is stopping state from yesterday.I tried looking for the Veeam exe agent on VBR as well as agent VM, no process is running, is there a way we can forcibly cancel only these backup’s We could locate the PID’s of these process, however process does not appear under VBR or the oracle VM Task Manager,  Process: [64 bit], PID: [19652], SessionId: [0], UID: [fc911f7e-ed08-4bb7-be1f-4a3461f23dda] for the SRV03248Process: [64 bit], PID: [61356], SessionId: [0], UID: [3b69526c-e334-4305-bd33-bcced8fc2944] for the SRV03576Process: [64 bit], PID: [19724], SessionId: [0], UID: [a941f009-e8b7-475a-8fd2-1388653256b6] for the SRV03709Process: [64 bit], PID: [61356], SessionId: [0], UID: [3b69526c-e334-4305-bd33-bcced8fc2944] for the SRV03821    

vCenter shows disk consolidation requested by Veeam but also displays percentage of completion. What's a good plan to be able to restart the Windows DB VM? See screenshots below.From what I know, it is not a good idea to reboot while consolidation is going on. However, this has been going on for at least 2 days and the DB residing on the server is performing poorly. I have requested the DB folks to try to restart the DB instead of the server but in the event that this would be the only option that is left to do, what is a good way to go about doing a VM reboot. I have disabled the job in Veeam and has cancelled another Veeam request to vCenter to run another consolidation (thoe one showing 0%). 

I’ve installed and configured the Veeam MS SQL agent on a MS SQL Server 2022 instance.  During the DB backup setup, I can’t select object based repository or my SOBR. What is the best way to transition MS SQL backups to S3? Replication jobs only allow VMs.  The Backup Copy and Copy Job only show local repositories.

Hi all! I’ve been following along with Michael Cade’s renewed journey into home labbing on twitter at the same time that I’m doing a bit of the same. I’m currently working through the following2x AceMagic AM06Pro (https://www.amazon.com/Computers-Windows-Display-Desktop-Bluetooth/dp/B0BQHBWPYX) upgraded to 64 GB ram and 3 TB of internal disks each for ESXi hosts 1x AceMagic T8 Plus (https://www.amazon.com/ACEMAGIC-Computer-3-Screen-Bluetooth-Computers/dp/B0CQJQPZJX) as a Proxmox host (hopefully) 1 QNAP TS332x for basic iSCSI and object storage 1 Synology 923+ that I’m hoping to do some Veeam related goodness on. Cloud based object storage from 11:11 Systems as well as some vCD compute for VCC In addition I have some resources in AWS that I’ll leverage to do testing and learning with. What are you all doing for labs in modern times? If you are actively using a lab what are you testing, what’s exciting you?

Can I use the same veeam data essentials license for two office locations?  Each location will have one VMware Server and one VM for each server?

Why am I not allowed to create a recovery media for this machine?

In my post about Hyper-V 2025, I went over what’s coming that’s new in Server 2025, and a few things about Hyper-V support with Veeam… I was curious, what additional Veeam feature do you think would be most exciting to see here? 

We backup an O365 organization with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 7.1.0.1501. Everything went well, but tonight the backup of all mailboxes failed with error message: "Processing mailbox failed with error: Failed to get folder properties. Not allowed to access Non IPM folder." Also the backup of all teams failed with error message: "Failed to process team. Failed to get folder properties. Not allowed to access Non IPM folder." The backup of OneDrive and SharePoint worked properly. Any idea?

Hello Again 😖We’re on Veeam 11.0.1.1261 P20220302. Only using the Backup and Replication portion. No VeeamOne etc.. Am curious if there’s a way to get a summary of what type of compression/deduplication ratios we’re seeing besides what’s on the email generated on job completion.I assume each job is going to be different. You’ll probably get better ratios on full backups than incremental.Do I need VeeamONE here to do this? 

Anton Gostev annunced support for OLVM here Great news!
