I am trying to do agent based backup of a Windows file share cluster. However when the job is set as "Failover cluster" job mode I can only select the entire volume to backup.I want to select particular folders on the shared drive to backup. Is this possible ?

Features of Veeam Backup & Replication may not function when the Veeam Backup Service is run as a user that is not assigned the "Veeam Backup Administrator" role

It looks like you need to be careful when using the Log On as for the Veeam services if the account being used is not in the Veeam Backup Administrator group within Veeam.  The answer is to add the account to that group to fix the issue.  See the KB.KB4252: Features of Veeam Backup & Replication may not function when the Veeam Backup Service is run as a user that is not assigned the "Veeam Backup Administrator" role

I wrote a C# tool so you can move VBO (365) config to a new host, or rename the host

The main issue is the config.edb file has 3-4 values that are hard-coded with the VBO proxy settings, so if you move to a new server, VBO backups will start to fail. Thus, the official recommendation is to move the data, but manually re-create all orgs and backup jobs. That HURTS. Same goes with the "failed to retrieve licenses for X users" error if you rename the server, or change domain.This is tested in production over the last few weeks, fully open source, Veeam support know about it and were glad it resolved a bug for us (upgrading from V5 to V7 triggered an issue to do with the hostname).Repo: https://github.com/platima/veeam-host-rename-or-move/Reddit Thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Veeam/comments/19cmkrr/i_wrote_a_c_tool_so_you_can_move_vbo_365_config/Screenshot:Enjoy!

Build replica environment

In theory could I use Veeam bu&r to completely rebuild my datacenter environment (VMware) on new esxi hosts? I have been tasked to build 2 identical rigs with the same SSO, domain name, IPs etc on seperate vSan ready nodes. Rather than do this twice I wondered if it possible to mirror the build using Veeam. I’ve picked up the limitation with vGPU enabled desktops. Are there any more gotchas that I need to worry about??? If the new esxi hosts had the same fqdn/ip would Veeam throw a wobbly and no it’s a new target environment?

Monitor individual jobs in VSPC

Hello everyone,VSPC allows us to be alerted when a computer has not been backed up for a specific number of days.However, when a device has multiple jobs configured, what if one of those jobs has not been running for some time but other jobs completed? An example scenario is this:Job 1: when a backup target is connectedJob 2: daily at midnight What if job 1 never gets executed as the target is never connected but job 2 does?Is there a way I could be alerted? Thank you in advance.Daniele Capuano

Update attatched object storage

Hi, is there a smart way to update attached s3 object storages. Not used in sobr(!). I am useing capa offloading to s3 on aws. in our Prodution environment (B&R Local). Thats working fine. I also attached the s3 on another Veeam B&R in VMC on AWS. I can see all backups once I attached the object storage in the repository view. Thats fine. I can do restores direct from s3 in vmc on aws. thats fine too. But ...I only do backup and offloading from B&R Local. Veeam B&R in VMC on AWS is only for restore purposes in our desaster environment. Unforunatly the attached s3 will not be update once B&R Local completet a new backup an offload. I can not rescan the object storage repository. The only way is to detach and do an import again. Thats working, its ok, but a more smart way to do a rescan during attatched s3 would be great. Thank you.

Veeam 365 object storage extent no local backups

Hi there,I’ve created a backup repo in my Veeam for 365 backups and also specified an extent to offload to Azure:Since that’s live I have no backup data on my local disks other than some sort of a cache… looks like everything has been pushed to Azure. Is there a way to still have local backups and then offload to Azure like we do with Veeam B&R ?Thank you.

Hi,After an upgrade to B&R 12 i need to deploy components to my offsite immutable repo.I run “sudo veeamhubrepo”, chose the default user and press enter, but ssh is never enabled so my B&R server cant connect. I recall seeing a note in the header of veeamhubrepo once about SSH being enabled, but now it just showing the IP. Any hints?
