VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
Thank you all. Seems there is no feature and option. I hope that we have this option as a feature if other users want it too.
Hello @Davoud Teimouri , you can define a backup window in the job. Thank you @JMeixner but it doesn’t allow job to start.
Hi @Davoud Teimouri, to answer your question specifically, this is not possible. Please take a look at this link for similar concern: https://forums.veeam.com/veeam-backup-replication-f2/can-i-pause-a-veeam-backup-and-resume-it-later-t72122.html Thank you. I’ve read that.
@Link Stateprovides a good workaround, the other thing to point out is that “pausing” a backup job could consist of two meanings: Stop processing new VMs but finish existing ones Stop processing current VMs until I resume. Scenario 1 could be useful at times, but Scenario 2 won’t provide all the benefits you expect as your VM snapshots will remain for the duration of the backup job (unless offloaded to storage as mentioned by Link State). The other thing I’d ask is, is it due to your snapshots that you’re having performance problems, or due to the speed at which Veeam is reading from your source datastores? If it’s this you could use leverage storage IO control https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/io_settings.html I want to solution like 1st scenario, stop processing VMs and finish ...All best practices are implemented to reduce impact but during working hour, read I/O has impact on users experience.
Thank you @JMeixner and @regnor Actually, using Backup Validator takes long time to complete and as you mentioned, storage level corruption guard has some limitations.What's your recommendation for backup jobs with three restore points and incremental method?More info:Half of jobs are scheduled at even days of the week and the rest are scheduled at odd days of the week. Each job has a post-script for run Backup validator tool for the job. Maintenance scheduled at Friday for all jobs with old object delete option. Two datastore objects have been added to each backup job.
Hi guys,The issue is resolved. After finding the below line in “Veeam.One.Collector.VMware”:Collecting performance data took more than 393000ms, so there were some problems.I have checked our vCenter performance and also database servers but all were healthy and also the servers have enough resources and located on AFA storage.There was 120 counters for collecting performance data so I deselect some metrics in “Veeam ONE Settings” tool. Because our server is monitoring large environment and we have lots of datastore and storage LUNs, I have deselected all metrics for storage paths and storage adapters.After service restart, the charts are near real-time and performance collector takes less than 10 seconds to collecting performance data.I did some another changes but the above change was the solution for me:Change deployment type Remove backup server and re-add Change reporting service scheduleI think that Veeam should check the issue because as I said, there was no bottleneck on our ma
The Veeam ONE server, vCenter and ESXi servers have same NTP and there is no problem but performance charts are five minutes behind of real-time.We’ll apply the patches and share the results.
It was announced in 2017 but finally CDP will be available in v11! Finally!
Noone is using the plugins for Oracle RMAN or SAP HANA and has experience with them? Our database administrators don’t believe in Veeam BR but we need to this experience for our LTR project. Our customer needs keep backups for one year and restore it for checking financial records. I guess that RMAN plugin and native tape support will good choice for us.
Hi BertrandFR,We don’t have quite same situation but our teams still thinking that snapshot is a safe way and they have backup during some tasks such as upgrade. They are still asking us to create snapshot before upgrade and keep the snapshot for some days or even weeks. We had lot of virtual machines with very old snapshots before.I’ve explained for them that snapshot is not safe and they need to have backup with some restore points and we can restore last backup quickly by Quick Rollback but they are still asking and we have to do it for them.Actually, when you have critical data on a VM like a database server, having standby server is a good solution to keeping data safe, also backup the data on different storage device is a complementary solution. Taking backup from VM or guest OS files can be a part of your backup strategy as well.But about application servers, I think that create backup or snapshot can’t help in some situations like file system (VMFS) corruption and restoration m
I always get best result from Veeam and there was no need to appliance or using storage hardware deduplication feature. I agree with MicoolPaul, you can use appliance to keep backups as long time retention.If you want to keep backup files on appliance or proxy server with OS deduplication feature, you need to change default/optimal compression and deduplication settings for repositories or backup job.
