File share secondary job problem

Hello.This is my first post here.Please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. I'm using Veeam Community version 12.1.1.56 and since I updated to this version, my "file share" backups have been experiencing issues.I have two backup jobs of this type.The problem I'm going to report only occurs when I activate the option "Configure secondary destinations for this job" within "Backup Repository" in the job properties.If I create a backup job now, it will execute the task normally. However, on the following days, Veeam starts to encounter problems. It always copies the files in the primary job normally, every day, but in the secondary jobs, it immediately starts the task along with the primary job and the logs show the following error:"[12.03.2024 19:01:20.918] <28> Error (3) Item [Data from 03/12/24 7:00:28 PM restore point] is locked by running session SRV-02 - Arquivos [File Backup], SessionId: [aac32375-bfca-4f36-afe2-d7b1a6f5627a][12.03.2024 19:01:20.918] <28&gt

Performance Tuning Veeam releated.

Here is something that I don’t see enough of. First, what is the fastest or average job you have? If you could follow it up with some hardware specs, or config design that would be super helpful too.If you can also add, what is the single best thing you have done to improve your Veeam performance? I average around 1GB on most jobs. I have it 2GB and the smaller incremental sometimes hit between 100-300MB but only for a few minutes. I feel I get decent performance but was wondering if anyone is hitting significantly higher speeds while they backup? My source SAN’s are good. IBM V7000’s and FS7200 flash systems. My Veeam SAN is an older IBM V7000 with all spinning disk which could probably use an upgrade, but performance doesn’t change much backing up to SSD for me. I have all fiber, and 16GB for everything but 8GB for Tape as that is the LTO8 max.I created about 8 Volumes on the SAN as per IBM best practices to use more of the cores on the controllers, but doubtful it makes a diff

12.1 install and Malware Detection

Well, I just did the upgrade to 12.1 and things could not have gone more smooth. I did have to uninstall the console on my desktop manually and reinstall it but the server side went great.It seems like it’s running quick, and the new features are fantastic. The malware detection is going to take a bit of tuning, due to the amount of files, and odd file types some of these video players use, but I am very excited that these are now included in B and R.

V365 job design

Hello, I need to install the product for new customer and I don’t find anything on internet about how to manage job for organisations “medium size”.My customer has 8 Active directory forest and all are sync inside the same Azure tenant.I need to backup all of them.Is it “better” to have only 1 Exchange job (same for sharepoin, ...) for all or better to create 1job / domain name (each forest has a different public domain).I mean : Exchange job - Target organization and select only mail + archive and add exclusion for what I don’t want.ORExchange domain1 job - Target AAD group with domain1 users and repeat it for all other domain. What is the solution to be sure I backup actual object AND futures one. If I select organization → It’s ok. If I select group, I need to be sure user is inside the group (Dynamic group is ok). What about sharepoint site ? When I select a group and check sites, it will backup personnal sharepoint site right ? but for the other one how do you manage it ? I don’t

Notification when VBR Job is changed

Hello all,I am looking for a "simple" way to generate a notification when a backup or copy job is edited in VBR. The idea at the beginning is just to get an info (mail), not to rate the modification, if it’s a good or bad modification. Examples of bad changes would be reducing retention, changing encryption password, etc.Ideas how to realize this? Native in VBR i think there is nothing, Veeam One? External monitoring? Script?Many greetingsMatze

SureBackup - Application Group behavior

If the answer is obvious and I don’t see it: sorry for my question!In a large customer setup, SureBackup is managed by script (cusomized: https://www.virtualtothecore.com/can-test-1000-vms-veeam-surebackup/). So VMs are dynamically added by a Application Group. For a long time, we put just one VM into the group. SureBackup jobs failed when this VM failed - most often because of timeout. Now we increased to two VMs per run. Now I see job is skipping second VM when first VM fails. My question: Is this a designed behavior with Application Groups? Did not find the answer in the helpcenter.

Backup job doing NBD instead of SAN Direct

We just moved a couple of servers to a new volume in NetApp using its new large file/volume feature. Nothing has changed on the backup job except the volume that it is backing up. The smaller server around 3TB was able to be backed up using SAN but the other server that is approximately 43 TB is being backed up using NBD. Prior to the move, both servers are doing SAN direct. I would think that since these are both on the same volume is one has been successfully backed up using SAN the other should as well. Both servers are also in the same compute cluster and both are using the same proxies. What is causing this behavior?

What is the best compression or dedupe you have had per job/VM?

What is the best compression or dedupe you have received with Veeam.Feel free to expand on what type of job, compression settings, type of VM (sql, app, web server etc). If it is a file server what type of data does it host? For SQL I can get up to 7x Dedupe and 4.5x Compression I have a few application servers around 20x deduplication in my environment as well. The highest application server I have with an internal DB hit 46.8x Dedupe and 1.9x compression which is pretty crazy. The full backup was 13GB on a pretty large VM haha. I have a few big file server 30+TB that get 4.7x dedupe and 1.7x compression for example. Pretty good to see 30TB shrunk down to 4TB or so. I also have some 30+TB VM’s that get 1.1 dedupe and 1.0 compression . All videos however.

vCenter Tags for application aware processing options

Hi,we have 4 different backup priorities and vCenter Tags which our VMs are assigned to. Now i would like to implement 3 different vCenter Tags for application-aware processing options. Unfortunatly i can’t remove the Prio4 Tag from aap settings, because it’s used for default. Whats happens if a VM has assigned 2 Tags in aap options? Is there some kind of hierarchy which option will be used? What would be best practise in this case?

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.

Veeam Service Provider Console displays duplicate entries for machines when Veeam Agent is installed on Citrix VM.

When VMs on Citrix Hypervisor (formerly known as XenServer), orchestrated by Cloudstack Apache or Azure Stack Hub, using Veeam Agent (for Microsoft Windows or for Linux) are managed by Veeam Service Provider Console (VSPC), reporting, licensing, and management functionality may have unpredictable results.See this KB for solution:https://www.veeam.com/kb4269
