To back up data from M365 one can pre-create an app within AzureAD and connect via a certificate from VBM. Then no additional login to M365 is necessary:Step 5. Register or Select Azure AD Application - Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 GuideKeep in mind that you do not need to select this check box if you have granted the required permissions to the specified Azure AD application beforehand and already registered its certificate in Azure Active Directory. If the Grant this application required permissions and register its certificate in Azure AD check box is not selected, Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 skips the Log in to Microsoft 365 step and proceeds to

Hard disk 20 (3.5 TB) 1.9 TB read at 41 MB/s [CBT] - Can anyone tell me how long it should take this disk to complete backups? The backup ran for 13:21 hrs and failed to complete due to backup window setting. The backup window for the job is set for 15 hours 5pm - 8am. In addition how can i confirm if  a FULL or Incremental backup is running for a VM that failed backup.Backup type is VMware Image Backup. 

We have a file server that we are going to backup directly to an S3 compatible storage with immutability enabled.We want to put an incremental backup with full synthetic.Is full synthetic already compatible with S3 immutability with direct object storage?What do you recommend for the least resource consuming backup type? Thank you very much.

I have 2 Veeam V11 VBR servers. Which backup different servers. Servers are mostly VMWare, Windows/Linux and some Agent backups. No NFS/CIFS/ network share backups. At one point in time, these were 2 VBR servers in 2 separate data-centers but these data-centers got merged so now they’re located in the same data-center. They each use backup copy jobs to offload backups to Azure. For Azure, they’re using the same account, but upload to a different folder. Both servers have different proxies and different backup repositories. Backup repo’s are a combo of Windows and Linux (immutable). Each server uses a different SQL (server 2019)  back-end. Now, the idea is, to upgrade Veeam to V12 and merge these 2 V11 VBR servers into one V12 VBR server. Is this even possible? An upgrade to V12 can either done on the existing servers and then merge or I could build a new VBR server, install Veeam V12 and migrate both servers to the new one. The on-prem jobs cover about 15 days or so, s

Just want to run this by all the Service Provider Gurus here. It seems that for Multi-tenant O365 Veeam no longer wants you to place the console on the Cloud Connect server. Instead you install it separately and have it connected to the VSPC and expose a portal for restores. The old method of having the CC tenants go through the SP in the local VBR server is not seen as the optimal option. This diagram from the BP would suggest this:  Does that sound correct? I have been away from O365 for a bit now and the world is changing.

I found out there is a difference in the allowed number of active extents for an SOBR in VBR Enterprise Edition which could cause your backups to fail after upgrading from v11 to v12.This is the documentation for v11 (3 active extents max.):  And this is the documentation for v12 (2 active extents max.):  This is not mentioned in the release notes and it turns out you don’t get a warning during the upgrade.I raised Support Case 06063519 for this issue, this is the response from Veeam Support: I understand that the change in the policy is not desirab

More of a note about an effect I experienced using the new Microsoft Purview Compliance tool for Data Lifecycle Management and Retention Policies.We are new to M365, and are still migrating to it. As part of the setup before I started migrating, I did create a “Default Retention Policy” in Microsoft Purview for Exchange objects. I started migrating, setup Veeam M365 Backup to protect the migrated mailboxes, and all was good.As we expanded our use of M365, I reviewed the “Default Retention Policy” and learned a few more things about it. Long and short of the story, the default policy I had created was not applying to anything (for reasons undetermined). I deleted the retention policy and recreated it and all heck broke lose as the Purview retention policy applied.At this stage of our migration, roughly 1 TB of mail had been migrated, and our “every 30 minute” Veeam snapshots were keeping up easily.After the Default Retention Policy started applying to all

env:1、vbr11a、vspc6、backup server（win2022） with backup agent success。2、upgrade to vbr12、vspc7。3、backup server（2022） with bakcup agent failed。4、no Capacity/Archive tier，just back up to vbr local disk.5、Only two Servers（vbr + vspc）。

One thing I really miss from other backup products I have managed, more detail displayed about what an active job is doing.  For example, a running Backup for 365 is taking a really long time.  The whole job summary says how many objects it has processed, number of items processed and the data transferred.But it does not show the same details in the actions. It only shows the name of the item and how long it is taking.  It would be really handy to know how many items and how much data has been transferred at the object level. Would help me understand what is going on and would allow me to investigate what changed to prompt a difference in backup times. 

So we're 7 days out from the big day, and thought we could put a collaborative Spotify playlist together for the event. I've added a couple of obvious tracks, but feel free to add more relevant tracks. Let's get an amazing playlist to match an amazing event.https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2iVGkhPztcEQyW7BrNJYGd?si=6a29d22cae4349d2

Any idea for this? It’s pure Hyper-V with Azure, not AWS. 1/31/2023 10:06:49 AM Warning Failed to connect to AWS plug-in: Failed to login to platform service: The HTTP resource that matches the request URI 'https://vbr11:9402/api/v1/account/login' is not supported.  

HiWe running an VBR11.0.1.1261 using SOBR with an QNAP as capacity tier. QNAP is supported S3 repository by Veeam and Veeam is partnering with QNAP. Also Immutable option should work as stated in https://www.veeam.com/sys469.After running while this setup we start getting strange errors.  Error deleting multiple items from SOBR invalid URI - which refers to cleanup operations on the S3 repository base on retention policy. VBR runs this operations in regular intervals.  In Veeam One - Data Protection View we get error type [v] (never seen before) and a Knowledge information that stats: S3 object storage added to VBR as repository may face overflow with small metadata file of 0 kb size. Cause: malfunction in object delete algorithm. Resolution - contact support to get a private fix. To get backups to SOBR working again

Hi, is it possible to use the same VUL license on two different standalone VBR servers ?the VBR in the main site doing the backup to disk and then backup copy and replicate only one VMto the VBR server in the DR site to his local repository. the license is for 5 VM bundle and in practice only one VM is backup and then copy and replicate to DR.Thanks

Forever Forward Incremental Backup + Backup Copy job Tape Out.With one Forever Forward Incremental Backup job can we configure multiple tape out Backup Copy job with Virtual full option for each day targeting to different media tape group.Primary Job will be one (forever forward incremental backup job) and a separate Backup copy jobs for each day Monday to Sunday.Will it work. And  if we restore tape backup from any one day (Monday group to Sunday group) i hope will it restore the full backup.

Outlook PST incremental backups ( Block level )  is possible in Windows Agent based backups.

Hey guys,  i run a small server in a NGO, our Veeam is still in version 9.0 without support since 2019. I’ve recently run into a backup problem, and our support IT company, told me that i should get a newer version of Veeam, and install in a new  VM(5th).I asked if it was possible to upgrade, which they said, no, and now Veeam only does subscriptions, and proceeded to give me a budget for 3 year. From what i read perpetual is still available, just more expensive than subscriptions, but what about upgrading? Could i not install 9.5 on a new VM, renew and upgrade up to 12? What do you think?

When I Backup Job compleate Then Backup Copy Job Is next run .Can Setting Backup Job Copy Run Completed is Call  Backup Job is Runremark : because i can’t setting Backup Job Schedule Time because I don’t know Backup Job Copy Long time to backup .  best regards
