how to take backup over the internet ?

Hi, so VBR doesn’t Support Network Address Translation (NAT), so for remote endpoints you’d need to utilise a VPN to enable the communication between VBR and the endpoint. You’ve got other options however. Veeam Cloud Connect (whether using a service provider or Veeam Cloud Connect for Enterprise) does support NAT, which allows backup across networks without end to end communication, but odds are you don’t have this. If you want the endpoints to backup to some form of cloud storage then you could deploy them independently of the VBR to remove the communication requirement back to your VBR server. Hope this helps

powershell office 365 connection failure

Under the organisations view, right click your company and edit the organisation, change basic to modern authentication and follow the steps here:https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/guide/vbo_add_office365_org.html?ver=70

powershell office 365 connection failure

Hi, I believe you’re still using basic authentication which Microsoft have been deprecating and removing, and now your tenant has PowerShell via EWS disabled and you can’t access it this way. Make sure you patch yourself up to the latest v7a release, and then migrate your tenant to Modern authentication 🙂

Install 2nd VBR server in secondary site

Hi, this is a fully supported scenario. You must run Veeam Backup Enterprise manager and attach both VBR servers to it for centralised license management though

Unable to allocate processing resources. Error: All backup proxies are offline or outdated

Are you integrating into enterprise storage with this?I had this with a NetApp integration previously whereby some NetApp SVMs were provisioned ‘with’ NFS access, even though at the front end this appeared disabled. Veeam’s integration discovered this NFS ‘mount’ and tried to communicate to it even though the SVM didn’t have an interface Veeam could communicate with it via.

Bare metal recovery instance on oracle cloud infrastructure

Hi, I don’t believe OCI gives you console access to VMs which will prevent you doing a BMR. If you’re using Oracle’s VMware solution then yes you should be fine https://www.veeam.com/kb4007

Migration from Hyper-V to VMware

You sure can :)Shut down the VMs before a final backup to prevent data loss, and then you can do an instant VM recovery to start the servers up from the backup storage directly for near zero downtime, and then migrate these across onto the production storage, via Storage vmotion if licensed or otherwise via Veeam’s quick migration (Quick Migration - User Guide for VMware vSphere (veeam.com)) Hope this helps!

Backup Job VM with red bug on VM icon

Hi! I hadn’t found this page before but it turns out there is one, here: Restore Points Icons - User Guide for VMware vSphere (veeam.com) and a second for hypervisor icons: Hypervisor Infrastructure Icons - User Guide for VMware vSphere (veeam.com)

Backup Job VM with red bug on VM icon

Hi, it means that the VM has suspected malware inside it. You need to go to the main screen, look at the job statistics for the VMs with that symbol, or go to the inventory view to see more information and whether to mark as clean. This could be something as simple as your AV using file extensions that trigger a rule, or it could be something sinister, so you’d best investigate and validate its findings. More details: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/malware_detection.html?ver=120

Failed to copy on Nas Synology

In addition to @PeteSteven questions, can you also confirm how you’re communicating to the Synology (SMB or NFS), and whether the source and destination are on the same local network or across sites?

Veeam Agent fails to install on Hyper-V Server

Morning @wrbo To confirm, are you deploying the Veeam Agent as a “standalone” install, or deployed from your VBR?As others have noted, if your server is purely a Hyper-V server instead of Windows Server running Hyper-V Role, then you’ll be violating the Microsoft EULA for Hyper-V (unless you’ve licensed the host for windows server anyway I believe, would need to double check this). And if you’re using Hyper-V/Windows Core, then you’ll need to push the agent out via VBR in a managed by VBR state. I don’t work on the development team but I believe this is because when you manage it by agent you’ve got GUI applications that wouldn’t be able to execute without a full GUI environment. With all of that out of the way, where does your VBR server run? On the Hyper-V server? If so then we’d need to explore further what your backup repository looks like to determine if you could use a bare metal recovery without your VBR VM being operational.

Veeam with vSan How many Proxy

Morning,For the best performance you’ll want one proxy per host that is within the vSAN cluster, and they should be configured with hot add mode. This way the proxy can read from the source data via SAS internally, and the only network traffic is the proxy VM talking to the physical repository.

Two Physical Linux Servers added to inventory will not coexist

Awesome, knowing the problem is halfway to fixing it. Definitely engage with support then, and if you’re desperate for a quick fix, I wrote up what I did with AIX agent to fix this (guidance from Veeam support so it’s a supported workaround). Have a read of and give it a go on Linux. I don’t know if it will work as there are of course differences between the agents, but could be the resolution.

If the logs indicate what I’m suggesting the problem is, then it’s not the end of the world, it’s possible to overwrite the UUID 🙂If you have a valid support contract I would work with them on the issue but otherwise let us know and we can do best efforts to help here

Two Physical Linux Servers added to inventory will not coexist

Hi; Are these servers cloned by any chance? I had an identical problem with some AIX servers due to cloned disks that retained the same GUID. Next step will be grabbing the logs on the server that has disappeared and see what it is reporting there. Key things to look out for are invalid certificate as once the agent is deployed it communicates with a certificate. If the servers are seen as clones of each other then VBR will be issuing a new certificate for the GUID that supersedes the previous one, and you’ll see certificate failures at that point.

Login to Veeam with Domain users when the server is a workgroup

Hi, This is the case due to a few core constraints that are all overcome with a management domain.Firstly, trust. We don’t trust the domain on our server, so why would the server trust users of the domain that we don’t trust? Without being part of the security ecosystem of an AD domain, we can’t trust identities.Secondly, authentication methods. Veeam utilises windows authentication of a user account to validate who the user says they are, if windows can’t validate they’re part of the domain, we can’t use windows authentication. If you deploy a dedicated management domain instead you’ll enjoy your logical separation of production and management, whilst achieving this centralised identity requirement you have

Unable to restore mailbox items that contain attachments

Check your VBR logs for restoration information but also check the logs and health of your CAS server. The restore data flow is port 443 to the EWS connecter on the CAS server you’re targeting.

Very Unfortunate move by the Linux Foundation

Saw this news earlier today 😞 have they elaborated on their renewal process and costs? Microsoft renewals last a year but they’re free which I don’t mind as it just requires some effort to remain aligned to the technology after certification. Theres a general training = revenue stream attitude taking place in the industry but let’s be honest how much has changed in Linux in the past 2 years to warrant recertification?
