Google Cloud Storage as SOBR Archive Tier?

For v12, it seems that only Azure or S3 (Glacier) are supported as Archive Tiers for SOBR.  I would like to use Google (archive buckets) but I don’t get the option to choose it as an archive tier.   Is this possible?  If not, will it be supported in an upcoming version(s?)   what about other cloud storage like Wasabe/S3 compatible? Thanks.

Numerous Backup Cache Issues

So I’m am basically a day or two away from taking the time and going through and disabling the backup cache across all of my customers, it causes way too many problems. But thought I’d try asking here as a last resort since Veeam’s support seems useless as usual and my R&D forum posts aren’t getting any responses. I have had various cache related issues, especially since the ridiculously buggy V12 update, but here this past week it’s been especially bad. I have about 20 computers, that I know of right now, which are failing to upload the backup cache to the VCC server. As such these computers have not been backing up. At first I thought maybe they just needed some time to catch up or something, but it’s been over a week now and they’re not even modifying the files in the VCC repository. (Side note, yes, I did go look at the files, because it’s useful, even though Veeam says there’s no reason I should ever need to look at the files.)Seems there’s numerous different errors and behavi

Veeam Backup and Replication + Synology

Is there any best practices when implementing these two into work?Currently we have it setup as a SMB share folders and Veeam is sending backups to it.I did a little bit of research and saw that people are using ISCSI and connecting Synology drive to Windows Server and using it like that. As I can see they are using ReFS File System.What would be the best optimization when we have Veeam + Synology in our Environment.Veeam B&R and our main Synology are located in the same location within same subnet.After that main Backup is done we have a Backup Copy Job trough IPSec to our Branch Office where we also have Synology NAS with SMB share.With ISCSI I saw that people are using FastClone and I’m not familiar with it at all. What is the use of it?Any advices are welcomed 😀

Veeam Backup for Azure v5 - new features?

I am having a hard time finding any information regarding the v5 which will come this month.Does anyone have a sources for new features, compability and what we need to know?Was asked by deploy this for a customer this morning from the new v12 vbr console, but doesnt seem like the azure plugin for vbr is updated since it said you would need v11a..I just saw Veeam had a webinar for v5 2 days ago, sorry I missed that, but perhaps there is a recording?Would also be interesting to hear if Veeam backup for Azure does have a better fit than Veeam Agents for small azure customers with 1-5 vms? with veeam agents, vspc v7 and the seucre mode we can backup directly from the veeam agent to wasabi, with immuability without going through our vcc/vspc server regarding the traffic. How does VBA compare?

Veeam ONE v12 - Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Integration

Hi all,if you are planning to connect your Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to your Veeam ONE 12 infrastructure and start monitoring this type of backup as well, one thing to keep in mind is the license versions of the two products.Below the licensing-level compatibility matrix:https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/one/deployment/license_types.html?ver=120 As for the actual connection, in my case I ran into the following issue:https://www.veeam.com/kb4422 The KB4422 is very explanatory: “Monitoring Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 infrastructure and data protection operations with Veeam ONE v12, requires a new Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 license file with the M365Suite package value.”.  In my case, restarting the "Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 REST API Service" and push again the license update using the "Update Now" button in the VBO365 Server has solved the problem.https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/guide/vbo_installing_license.html?ver=70I hope I can have been helpful.Good work to

Best practices and tips for cloud immutability configuration

Hello everyone,I kindly ask for suggestions and advice to configure immutability on Cloud Wasabi of the following scenario:I have a Job backup "DailyVM" on local primary NAS repository scheduled daily.I have a Wasabi Object Repository "Bucket-cloud" with 15 days immutability.Finally, I have a Backup Copy Job "DailyVM_Cloud" with the following settings:- repository: "Bucket-cloud"- copy mode: periodic copy (pruning)- retention policy: 5 RP- schedule: On these days (Saturday)Based on this scenario, I expect the following behavior:first run: 1 fullsecond run: 1 incrementalthird run: 1 incrementalfourth run: 1 incrementalfifth run: 1 incrementalsixth run: 1 incremental and merge Full + second run incrementalAccording to what I read from the KB " Block Generation" (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/block_gen.html?ver=120), in theory the chain restore points should all have the same immutability expiration date. So in my scenario, if I create the full for example on August 6,

Tape Job that deviates from Source Job

Hi, ive just setup Veeam - Backup and Replication v12 and im a little stuck on how to setup my backup scenario.What i would like to do is perform a daily weekday backup to NAS with a retention of 10 restore points (Mon to Fri, so 2 weeks) with an active full on saturday plus a full daily backup to Tape.The data is 2tb, and i use LTO6 tapes (2.4tb).The Nas job is setup, and works perfectly, but im struggling with the Tape part. The problem is that the source job, having 10 restore points (and 2 active fulls), becomes too big for the tapes but can easily fit the actual data being backed up. The active full plus the daily incremental should fit, but its the 2nd Active Full that makes it too big.Is there anywhere to set the job to backup only one chain, daily, as a full?I may be looking at this the wrong way round, and there is a probably a better solution to this, but my thinking was that the data should fit on one tape, so why not back that up, in full, daily. This would save using pools

Virtual Lab (Router) isolated interface responding to Production traffic

Just wondering if any of you encountered this issue.We have been using Virtual labs for more than a year now. However, when our team tried to upgrade our NSX-T environment. They found out that the IP (Gateway IP) configured on the isolated side of the router is responding. This segment is connected to a NSX-T logical segment that was configured to be isolated.I think there is an issue with the NSX-T logical segment not configured properly but would like to see if there is some unknow issue with the Veeam’s virtual router.Thanks.

Veeam Backup for Azure - Azure Files scheduling no yearly retention option

Hi All,Why does Veeam Backup for Azure (Azure Files) have no scheduling option for yearly retention?Is this in some way related to the Azure only allowing up to 200 snapshots on Azure Files? In which case would a feature like we have with VM snapshots being used to create a more traditional backup be worth thinking about if you require longer term archiving? Cheers,

Veeam v12 and Data Domain - possible cleanup issues

I have a customer on Veeam v12 which backs up to Data domain. Veeam performs a copy job to another mtree, then the DD performs a DD replication to a central immutable DD.Customer has space issues but we are seeing old veeam backup files still on the DD. We did a delete from disk for an old backup, but the file is still on the DD.Any recommendations or seen this sort of behaviour?I’m questioning whether Veeam is cleaning up old data. Backup copy retention is only 5 days.

Drive for Office365 Backups

We’re using Veeam as a backup to Office365.  Our old-school owner wants to backup on-prem and periodically take a snapshot of the DB and bring it home.  We also are a small shop and don’t have a dedicated NAS.  What we do have is a compact i7 with plenty of RAM and a USB 3.0 port.We put a 1T PNY flash drive on it and it worked for about a month.  Then we started getting JetDB errors.  We put in a ticket and have been going back-and-forth with support (they have been responding nicely and it’s appreciated.)We’ve tried several solutions, seemed to be making progress but after the last iteration, they think it’s the drive.  I asked for a recommendation for a good set of specs but they couldn’t give me one.Is anyone out there using a Flash drive as their primary repo store?  If so, can you tell me what brand/model you’re using? Thanks in advance!  Scott.
