Hi there in Virtual World :)Running Veeam 11 - We experienced a complete full “Files to Tape” backup when the daily Tape job ran for the first time after entering Daylight Saving Time (DST) last weekend.ALL files in our backup Disk repository (xx TB) - that means UNCHANGED Veeam backup files from the last 4 months - was all sent to Tape once again - taking several job-runtime days to finish - and filling up a lot of new Tapes, which we needed to supply into the Tape library.Have anybody else experienced similar issues?As far as I have read  - Veeam operates in the UCT format - which should not be sensitive due Server time changes or DST - except changes in the local job time schedule:Daylight savings time - Veeam R&D Forums

Hello guys,I m trying to used the Secure Restore with Sophos Endpoint Agent.Is not an antivirus implemented by default in the configuration files. So I tried to edit the AntivirusInfos.xml but for the moment I got the following error message :Here the part added:<AntivirusInfo Name='SOPHOS Endpoint Agent' IsPortableSoftware='false' ExecutableFilePath='%ProgramFiles%\Sophos\Endpoint Defense\SophosInterceptXCLI.exe' CommandLineParameters= 'scan %Path%' RegPath='' ServiceName='' ThreatExistsRegEx='' IsParallelScanAvailable='false'>        <ExitCodes>            <ExitCode Type='Success' Description='Command executed successfully'>0</ExitCode>            <ExitCode Type='Error' Description='Error during command handling'>1</ExitCode>            <ExitCode Ty

This is probably a relatively complicated one, but also not a critical issue for us as there’s sufficient workarounds. Not something I want to go through the trouble of a support ticket with at this time. Hoping a community member can make the seemingly complicated uncomplicated. Veeam 12.1. We have a number of systems in our environment that we use the Veeam Agent for Windows to back up. We are primarily on Nutanix AHV for our virtualization. The backups seem to work just fine. When doing some recent restore testing, we noticed something. The goal of the restore testing was to test restoring these agent backups to our Nutanix AHV cluster. When using “Restore entire VM to Nutanix AHV...” option, during the wizard when I get to the storage container page, it shows the computer, but with no disks. What I then found was that this “no disk” symptom also occurs if I use the “Instant Recovery to Nutanix AHV”, but it actually gives an error message of “

Looking to migrate hundreds of VMware VMs from one vcenter to another.  Different vcenter versions that don’t allow online vmotion.I’ve tried Veeam Quick Migration.  Works well but with one major hassle: you can’t select the port group mapping so after each VM is migrated you have to manually map each NIC of each VM, connect it, and power it on.I’ve tried Veeam CDP permanent failover.  Works great but with one major hassle:  All the backups are still referencing the old VMs rather than the ones you failed over to.  So now the backup chain is broken and must re-add all the VMs to the jobs.CDP is so close to being perfect but for that one flaw.  Anyway to avoid it? 

Hi Everyone,I am wondering if there is a license for Veeam ONE only (not VUL for Data Platform Advanced) as this license can be used to monitor the Virtual Infrastructure workloads that are not protected by VBR as the VUL is for 10 instances which is covered the backup instances and VONE monitoring for them but what I want to achieve is monitoring the others in the virtual environment, is that possible ? as I read in Veeam Licenses documents but still confused.Appreciate your cooperation

I posted the below on Reddit, let me know your thoughts...We're in talks at work to make a new GFS repo where we keep X daily Y weekly Z monthly and maybe a single yearly on the Veeam repository and also take a copy monthly/yearly from said repo to tape and then off to the safe deposit box at the bank. What if I lose my repo and all that data. Yeah, I might have a few monthly/yearly at the bank, but I'm hosed on the daily/weekly side. All that history, lost. Is anyone have a redundancy approach they're using? We're thinking about using a couple Synology boxes in in HA mode basically where they basically stay in sync with each other. Let me know what you think. I also think we could use a second Synology box do do backup copy jobs and keep the same GFS retention points there...

I am trying to backup a physical server with a 81.7TB volume using B&R version 12.1.1.56 and Veeam VSS Hardware Provider version 6.1.0.349.  I have deployed the Veeam agent in managed mode and created a Backup Proxy of the physical server which installed the Veeam Backup VSS Integration and Veeam VSS Hardware Provider.  According to Veeam a volume greater than 64TB can be backed up using the Veeam VSS Hardware Provider.  I don’t know how to reconfigure the managed physical server and/or backup job of the server in the Veeam Backup and Replication Console to use the Veeam VSS Hardware Provider.  I do not have any option to Manage Volumes on my ribbon under this managed server as the Veeam instructions dictate.  I have run a Rescan on my managed server which successfully completes finding all disks and volumes but still no option to Manage Volumes on my ribbon.  How can I ensure my managed server and backup job are properly using the Veeam VSS Hardware Provider?  Everything else i

Hello, I have made upgrade from Licences 9.5b to 11a Community Edition without any Problem, but by upgrading to Version 12 Community Edition it gives me this: “[Error] Private fixes detected. Please contact our Customer Support to remove the following private fixes that are not supported by the new product version: TFS000100”There is no thread about TFS000100. In Registry there are no “Private fixes” found. Any idea?

I love this feature but with the thousands of file types I have I get a ton of false positives.Is there anyway to customize this “per server” with each file type? or disable for some servers/folders etc?When I mark a job as clean, it seems to find the files on the next job. I thought that it should assume those files to be ok going forward.

Hey everyone, I'm in the market for a new laptop and I've got my eyes set on an Intel Core i7-powered machine. However, I want to make sure it's compatible with all my needs before making the plunge. What compatibility considerations should I keep in mind when selecting an Intel Core i7 laptop? Are there specific features or specifications I should pay attention to based on my usage requirements? I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences to ensure I make the right choice. Looking forward to your insights! 

our company is the Veeam partner company, hence we deployed the veeam backup and replication software, in there having tape library issue, therefore I have raised the case, but i can’t connect to support team directly.so, please provide any contact number or else other way to connect technical support team ?

Hello guys, I’m trying to setup a new Veeam installation with a remote MS SQL 2022 server. I already did it in the past with another version of Veeam but this time I’m facing an issue.The Database server is in another VLAN, rules are ok on the firewall. On the DB server, I disabled for the moment the Windows Firewall.In the SQL Server Network Configuration I set TCP/IP like this: But during the Veeam installation I got the following error:My service account for the installation is local administrator of the Veeam S

Hey I'm trying to achieve backing up multiple server files on one job then push to  tape as a secondary target but it's not working I trying using file copying job but it's taking too long to run the files can you please provide me with any suggestions?

Got a weird situation I’m not sure of the right approach.  This setup is new to me and has some issues which I fully acknowledge and will be seeking to rectify. I have a restore request to recover the server VM that Veeam B&R is installed on.  It’s a shared application server running on Hyper-V and one of the other applications has become corrupted and the system will have to be rolled back. My plan was to take a configuration backup of Veeam so I could recover Veeam to the current state after the server itself has been rolled back.  The repository is on separate storage so won’t be overwritten by the restore. What I can’t quite figure out is whether or not Veeam is going to be able to instigate a restoration of the machine the B&R server itself is actually running on.  Can it do that or will I have to install a second copy of Veeam on another server and import the backup before restoring it? 

I need to understand Veeam Backup Proxy servers better. I have two sites.  They are in different cities, but connected via a P2P, so on the same network.   Site one holds my Veeam Backup server, ESX hosts, VMs, primary storage, etc.   Site two contains one ESX server and a very few VMs, (one DC, file server, DHCP) and some storage. At site one, all of my backups are scheduled to run and store locally.  Then, from site one, backup copies are moved across the P2P to site 2 for "off-site" backup.  This works well.   The VMs at site 2 are set to backup to local storage at site 2, but the backup runs and was built from site 1. BUT, at site 2, I have a Veeam B&R server as well and it's listed as my proxy server.  It's not doing anything.  It handles no backups and basically just sits there. So, clearly, I don't understand WHAT a backup proxy is for or how to use it. Can some
