TLS vesrion is not permitted

Hey guys, I have faced this error in customer environment where backup SOBR offload to cloud failed because it shows the error “ TLS version is not permitted on this storage account”, the TLS version is 1.2. I referred some articles and they suggests to add a registry value. One article shows the following registry value details:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication\Dword: AzureConcurrentTaskLimitvalue: 1 will this registry value work?

Fun Friday: Depressing Friday Facts!

Happy Friday everyone! Thats right, this Friday I’m gonna share a fact that will likely make you sigh 😩 Did you know Christmas is only 26 weeks away? We’re halfway there again! Everyone start your Christmas shopping if you celebrate it 😆 If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, the summer solstice took place earlier this week, meaning every day is now slightly less bright, inversely if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere, you’re through the darkest day of the year now and things are looking up! The curiosity Mars Rover sang happy birthday to itself one year after landing on Mars, making it officially the loneliest known birthday celebration. At some point your parents picked you up, put you down, and never picked you up again! Now, who’s next 😆

Veeam Backup V11 Problem with server with SQL transaction log

Hi everyone, I have problem with one of my servers who have MSQL and when the backup is finished i have this warning message “ Unable to truncate Microsoft SQL Server transaction logs. Details: Failed to process 'TruncateSQLLog' command. Failed to truncate SQL server transaction logs for instances: . See guest helper log.” I have search in official support and only find that the veeam account for backup must be MSQL administrator on that database, and to be local admin on that machine. I have make him database admin, but still i have this warning, and the hdd on that machine will be full soon. We have V11 Enterprise with support and so on, but because we are Public Enterprise we have bought this product from one Company in our Town. Can somebody give me some solution instruction step by step ?

Happy Friday everyone! Today I want to talk about unique/awesome applications of technology, it doesn’t have to be useful, but just interesting! I saw this video the other day and was amazed at:How much care & detail went into this project. How unnecessary it really is, but yet I found myself in awe all the same!What was this video?A basketball hoop that you CAN’T miss with. Watch this and tell me you don’t want to give it a go?Also, as @wolff.mateus is just an NBA fan, I had to tag him in this! So, what have you seen?

Simultaneously backup to Tape and Veeam Plugin backup to Veeam server

Hi Veeam,Currently one of our customer using RMAN to backup there oracle database to the tape. They want to use Veeam RMAN plugin backup to the Veeam repository but the problem is they don’t want to completely stop the backup to tape.They are requesting there is any possible way to simultaneously backup their  Oracle database  to tape and also to RMAN plugin backup.They are having huge concern on RMAN plugin configuration. Because below RMAN configuration parameters will get updated automatically after plugin installation .CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO 1; # defaultCONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO 1; # defaultCONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(OB_DEVICE=tape1)';which will lead them interupt in current Tape backup. Regards,Rithesh Kanchan

Veeam Service Provider Console v6 event logs collection

Hello Everyone,I am using the Veeam Service Provider Console v6 product. Because of a security audit, I must collect all activity logs from the VSPC portal. Now the VSPC portal only can show Event logs in the web UI portal and VSPC does not support pushing event logs to a log system like ELK or vRealize Log Insight. Please help me to solve this problem.Best regards,

Oracle Rman query

Hey Guys, I have a scenario.So my customer environment was taking oracle backups to tape without using Veeam. Now they want to initiate RMAN backup using Veeam. After installing plug-in the configuration settings gets updated in oracle but they also want existing backup jobs to the tape to continue after veeam plug-in install. Is there a solution to this?

Working with Disaster Recovery, Stress and Burnout, How do you deal with it?

Hi Folks, While not a technical subject, nevertheless since we are working with Veeam and that implies Disaster Recovery I am pretty certain many of you have been in the high pressure trenches of Severity One situations.Unless you have nerves of steel inevitably this will start to take a toll on your health and well being. People here are veterans of this profession so you have obviously found ways to survive and handle this. I thought it would be good to share what we all do to keep our sanity. Mind you I have been told I was never sane to begin with so you can’t lose what you don’t have but . For me humor is the saving grace.Laughing is like a reset button and it wipes the slate clean of all the built up pressure and anxieties and not just with IT related issues. In every situation I try to find a funny side of things. For example two weeks ago when I went to have my eyes checked again. I knew that they were going to tell me that I needed new glasses. Sure enough they did and started

Fun Friday: Which Common Sysadmin Tool have you seen do the Most Damage?

Happy Friday all! Today, lets talk tools, the right tool in the wrong hands can be catastrophic. What tool have you seen so the most damage to an environment? Whether it’s a built in tool/feature or 3rd party, I wanna hear! For me, it’s Remote PowerShell. I witnessed this being used by a malicious script to deploy ransomware to every device in the domain and the rest of the network. The script was harvesting credentials from users working on the infected endpoint and the moment a domain admin signed in, BANG, remote PowerShell to all!

Fun Friday: Share Your Backup Pet Peeves

Happy Friday everyone! Today, lets talk pet peeves. If you’re not familiar with the term, it means something of frequent/continual annoyance to someone. Mine is when backup repositories are used for ANYTHING other than backups/data restoration. I see it a lot with people’s personal backups and in smaller businesses. It’s often a scenario such as: I find a file share on a backup repository, and I ask, what’s that doing there? Then I’ll be told that there were some files that were far too big to sit on their expensive storage such as marketing media shares full of videos and photos. I was always taught to assume positive intent so I’ll ask something like “oh okay, have they copied what they need so it can be deleted?” More often than not I’ll be told, nope they need the data still as XYZ department needs it. I’ll then ask the key question, “okay, where’s be being backed up to? And what frequency?” At this point I always get the same response “we have nowhere big enough to back this up to

Backup for failover cluster

Hey guys, in this link it says veeam cannot backup failover cluster with CSV and CSV will be excluded if you are backing up that cluster. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/agents/cluster_support.html?ver=110Is there recommended way to backup those volumes? Can volume or file level backup solve this?

New feature for restores

We currently have a situation where we need to copy backed up files on a different subnet from the Veeam server.The backup files are on the proxy server in a different subnet and I need to copy them to a different server on the same subnet.  Veeam is across a VPN so copying 1 TB of files from Veeam across the VPN would take too long.When I mount the files to restore it would be great if they were available in the VeeamFLR folder on the proxy server.   Then I could copy them directly on the same subnet.  Right now the files to restore are only available on the Veeam server.As a workaround I’m going to install Veeam on the Proxy server so I can access the backed up files without using the VPN.

veeam recovery media for failover cluster

Hey guys,A customer of mine has asked whether I could create recovery media for failover cluster but in this linkhttps://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/agents/image_create_before.html?ver=110 tells that I cannot create a recovery media and I should enable creation of a Veeam Recovery Media for such clusters with a registry value. Has anyone faced this situation and enabled recovery media with registry value. Also I referred this link https://forums.veeam.com/servers-workstations-f49/unable-to-create-recovery-media-for-server-t73845.html
