Kasten on your Minikube

we need to enable all the pods to be successfully running in the minikube in case it is not anbled. minikube addons enable volumesnapshots minikube addons enable csi-hostpath-driver yes I think I had that in my earlier post but.. might have forgotten. Also make sure to disable the standard storage class. You can disable the standard storage addon and this will remove it. Then you have to make certain you change the default storage class to csi-hostpath-driver.

What could we do better at another virtual event - or hybrid event?

I love the in person events. Nothing beats meeting Veeam folks and fellow IT enthusiasts. I find that the exchange of ideas and thoughts seems to flow much more naturally since we are “social” creatures :). On the other hand virtual events have opened this up to a lot of people who for different reasons never had a chance to actually go to VeeamON. I personally believe that going forward should be a combo. Perhaps a small fee could be charged for virtual in order to provide live streaming of sessions? There are a lot of great IT people out there whose company’s or who personally can’t afford to travel to Vegas or Barcelona, it would be a shame to lose their input and ideas.

Veeam one

One wild and weird way to monitor windows at least, is to enable the hyper-v role but not use it as a hypervisor :). Seems a little much though but I did this once, I can’t remember the reason why. Nice idea! But from a security perspective, I would not recommend this! @dhawankar you would still have 2 un-monitored linux hosts Unless they are RedHat then just install KVM :) going forward :)

T-shirt: Please, read FAQ, before submitting question

I think the T-shirt conversation was just a “break the ice” get know one another, like initially talking about the weather at real non virtual VeeamON’s :)… Ah Miami 2019 memories.. “so looks like Sun, Beach and Beer today” .. “yes great conference!!!”

That is one really great thought @Geoff Burke nice one! I did get some flack from the security guy saying that I had needlessly increased the “windows attack surface” i.e. nothing comes without a cost :)

The T Shirt thread seems to be gaining steam :). I myself am interested in the shoes and how many of those will get sent out.

Veeam V11 plug-in for oracle

You can also create a backup copy job for Rman plugin backup jobs in order to follow the 3 2 1 rule. However, for now Cloud Connect Backup Copy jobs are not supported.

Full Backup Reports

There is also a user in the forums who has created a report that many have found helpful. I don’t know if it is up to date with V11 but worth a look:https://forums.veeam.com/powershell-f26/my-veeam-report-v9-5-1-t47058-120.html?sid=93532a27b3562210381ddac224a4c352

Veeam Backup in Readhat Virtualization

yes funny how things change :) we were just talking about this and boom… Now supported. Back to the original question, I have played around with KVM and Qemu. KVM is a type 1 hypervizor whereas Qemu is type 2 so KVM is baremetal like vmware and hyper-v. I had no issues while testing but never got to run it in production. I did run XEN for a while but it looks like XEN is going away.

Unique Features

I have used commvault a bit. The big difference in my opinion is that Veeam is easier to present to customers. The interface is more streamlined and intuitive. From a service provider perspective this is quite important as it saves you a lot of time explaining things.

VMCE 2020

Great feedback folks, I think the leitmotif here is to approach the exam with caution. I remember passing the VMCA exam not long after NOLA. They let us take it right after the course there and we all failed… it was very very tricky. It scared the heck out of me so I memorized the textbook, created a test exam, 150 flash cards and then passed with a good mark despite having no idea whether I had passed or not until the final pop up. I was told later that some “mean Veeam” engineer :) would make the questions harder each time too many people got it right, don’t know how true that was but… it sure felt like it. Anyways too make a long story short I now take every exam very seriously and throw out any hubris about past accomplishments :). It is too easy to get lax.I do think though that if you put in an honest effort you will be alright. The challenge for us all is working a full time job and then playing the eternal student in the evenings and on weekends.Good Luck everyone!!

Questions regarding backing up a Vmware 6.5 VCSA

Check out this article by the ever awesome @vNote42 VMware vCenter Appliance: image backup is deprecated since 7.0 | Veeam Community Resource Hub In essence, yep possible, but it’s going away in the future so just be mindful of that. I tried using the VAMI interface but in 6.5 only FTP, FTPS, HTTP, and HTTPS are supported. having issues making the connection to a Data Domain using any protocol I would recommend to update to at least VCSA 6.7 (U3). There you can schedule file-based backups in VAMI. Furthermore you can define how many restore-points should be kept. … next to the advantage of not needing Flash any more. Yes I remember when they first brought in those backups in 6.5 I believe.. I said great… now where is the automatic scheduler? oops there is none :(. That must have been a big feature request to say the least.
