Managed Service Provider - Alternate monitoring solutions?

I work for an MSP and we rent Veeam licenses to our clients. We can monitor backups through the Veeam Service Provider Console but their are some features that are lacking using this. We are looking for a more robust monitoring to make certain that our clients backups are functioning. One specific thing that the VSPC lacks is reporting on issues with offloading to a capacity tier. Tech support verified this and put in a suggestion for this feature. We want something that has consolidated reporting. We look at the VSCP alerts twice per day currently.Does anyone know of any product that we can use to get better reporting on errors / alerts?

veeam replication from Prod to Dr

We have provisioned VBR in production, tecnically with compute and storage. Can we replicate the recovery points from prod VBR to VBR dr? In dr, we will provion as well VBR dr resources.  upon checking with veeam, they can replicate in the dr but the source is the vcenter prod as well, meaning 1vbr is enough as long as they vcenter in dr. Thanks

Datastore Usage Trend

I am trying to find or build a report that will provide a line chart for each datastore trending over the last 4 - 6 months.I looked at the report - Datastore Space Usage History - the data appears to be there under the individual datastore headings, but it appears that will be a significant amount of data manipulation to make it work.Is it possible to get the data in a .csv format?Does anyone else have a similar need and has addressed it?Thanks in advance.

Best log to check for Cloud Gateway errors

Good morning, everyone! Quick question. I have a copyjob that is throwing random “No Cloud Gateways available” errors. The odd thing is, it’s the only server that is having the issue and the our cloud connect server is fine. I am not quite sure what is happening between the cloud connect server and that backup server, but I want to get to the bottom of it! What would be the best Veeam log to check for info on that? I can run through the Windows Event Viewer, but I also want to see if any of the Veeam logs can shed some light. You all rock! Thank you so much for being great!

Backup SAP HANA with backint is very slow

Hey community, I want to use VBR 11a and VeeamPluginforSAPHANA to backup my SAP HANA database.Howerver, the test result is not ideal, Processing rate is only 1M/s.In my environment, the bandwidth between the VBR server and the HANA server is 10Gbps, and I have tested it with iperf3, everything is OK. and when I use VBR to backup VMs and NAS, everything is OK too. I also tried to set up different repositories using SapBackintConfigTool, but it doesn't work.What could be the reason? tks.

backup methods

Hey guys, I have another query.If I create a backup let’s say full backup on Monday, retention policy is 7 days and synthetic backup on saturday. On saturday once the full backup is created, will the previous backups merge to this full backup and get deleted once retention policy is expired ?Another question: consider the 1st question scenario in the backup settings, now if a customer deletes a backup on tuesday and reports this 20 days later, can he use the synthetic backups to recover the data?

What is your DR temperature?

I was reading an excellent article by Randy Lee, https://www.randylee.com/misc/dr-temperatures, and wanted to see what is your DR temperature? Do the categories align to your business?What is your range for RPO and RTO? “Who” was involved in deciding the values? When was the last time you confirmed the numbers are achievable?

Facebook Outage 4th September 2021.

As everybody knows, yesterday Facebook has the biggest outage ever register in the company.  Just to be clear it has noted that the problem is about DNS and BGP protocol through the network. So, it wasn't attack. It wasn't ransomware. It wasn't hardware problem. I think that is important to talk about these big problems with IT companies, because is very common hear and see so many fake news about this kind of outage. Here is a good post of CloudFlare about the problem: https://blog.cloudflare.com/october-2021-facebook-outage/
