Hallo zusammen, ich habe Veeam Agent for Linux FREE auf meinen Laptop unter POP OS 22.04 LTS installiert. Wie es aussieht habe ich vergessen die Datei-Rechte zu korrigieren. Dann Veeam Agent for Linux FREE deinstalliert und dann nochmal installiert. Zwischen der Deinstallation und der Neuinstallation habe ich eine Sicherungen gemacht. Siehe Bild. Jetzt will Veeam Agent for Linux FREE neue konfiguriert werden und einen neuen Job anlegen. Kann ich das alte Backup in das neue Repository integrieren? Siehe Bilder. Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe. Gruß Jesja4512
Enabling Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) or Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is the best way to protect accounts from password theft or phishing. Therefore it’s recommended to enable such options, when they’re available. Since some time it’s possible to use MFA for Veeam Accounts, which are used to access the my.veeam.com portal or also the Veeam Community 😉 Login to your Veeam account at my.veeam.com and click on edit profile in the top right corner. At the bottom of your profile details, you need to click on “Enable MFA”. As a side note, even after enabling MFA this link still states “Enable” instead of “Disable”. On the following page, you need to click on “Set up authenticator application” and follow the instructions. While FreeOTP or Google Authenticator are recommended, you can use any other OTP app; for example I’m using Aegis. Afterwards it’s recommended to create recovery authentication codes, for the case that your MFA app isn't available. Of course you should not store tho
Hi there Community! As Shane is on vacation (enjoy it!), he asked me to post this weeks VTT question. So let’s go. Also, for those new to the VMCE page, please hide your comment (guess). To do so → before typing your response, click the ellipsis icon on the far right of the format toolbar at the top in your comment box and select the Spoiler option. This will place a ‘hide comment’ text box in your comment box area. Click inside this hide comment text box and start typing your answer (guess). Be careful to not click outside of the box or your comment will show after saving. We want your comment to not show so others can take full advantage of these practice questions. Let me know if you have issues. Good luck! Question A company needs several VMware VMs restored back to their Fibre Channel SAN. A Veeam backup proxy is present as a VM on each ESXi host.

We observed our monthly back ups were deleted earlier than the 3 month retention set in the jobs . Short term retention is 35 restore points GFS is 3 months Repo is SOBR extents - Exagrid GFS Policy: Enabled, monthly backups kept for 3 months. Active full backup: Scheduled last monday of every month. Transform to synthetic full: Scheduled first sunday of every month. VSS settings: Application aware processing is enabled. We need to understand why the retention policy is not working as expected. Could you please provide a checklist of items to investigate, and explain whether the current settings would result in this behavior?
Hello Veeam Community, I am reaching out with a concern regarding our Veeam version 12.1, as we are consistently receiving malware detection alerts on our VMs. The notifications specifically indicate: Potential malware activity detected: Too many files have had their names changed since the last backup; ensure they were not encrypted by ransomware. Potential malware activity detected: *.ttt (TeslaCrypt 3.0): 40 instances. Potential malware activity detected: *..txt: 2 instances. I have conducted thorough scans on both the VM and the backup, and no malicious activity was found. Could you please provide insights or guidance on whether this is a matter of concern, and if there are additional steps I should take to address this issue? Your assistance in resolving this matter is highly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support.
Since we added Linux Repositories to our Veeam Backup environment in my post from last week, why not add some Linux Proxies as well? I will show you how in this post. And trust me…this one will be far less painless. But adding Repositories wasn’t so bad, was it? 😏 System Requirements The first thing you need to do is check what OS's, hardware, and software are supported. Supported Linux OS's are exactly the same as with Repositories and are listed below: Linux Proxy Requirements As far as hardware goes, your server should have a minimum 2-core CPU, plus 1 core per 2 concurrent tasks (take note, this is a peformance enhancement since v12, up from 1 core per 1 concurrent task); and minimum 2GB RAM, plus 500MB per concurrent task. But for best performance and to run multiple Jobs and tasks, you should have much more Cores and RAM than the minimum. As with the Veeam Repository, look to the Veeam Best Practice Guide for actual Proxy sizing guidelines. The remaining requirements depend on t
Hi, I do a Backup from a Phyiscal Maschine and try do restore it by Veeam Backup and Replication. Of course the PMaschine has 8 Cores, the proxmox SVR just have 4 Cores. I got the error message “Failed to reach the hypervisor. Error output: MAX 4 vcpus allowed”. Is there any solution? I have no possibility to change the vm config bevore create. Thanks for any help.
Hi all, We’ve been running VMware in our environment, but over the past 6 months we’ve been trying to obtain proper VMware licenses. Unfortunately, despite multiple attempts, we haven’t received any response from Broadcom or its partners. Due to this ongoing delay, we’ve decided to transition to Hyper-V instead. However, we’d like to keep both systems running for a while and ideally use CDP (Continuous Data Protection) or some kind of replication from VMware to Hyper-V during the transition. Has anyone set up CDP or replication from VMware to Hyper-V? Any tools or solutions you’d recommend to ensure minimal downtime and data integrity during the switchover? Thanks in advance for your input.
Hallo zusammen, ich benutze den Veeam Agent for Windows Free Ich möchte gerne ein Datei aus einem alten Veeam Backup, welches auf einer USB-Festplatte liegt, wiederherstellen Leider meldet das File Level Restore Programm folgende Fehlermeldung “Veeam Agent for Windows is unable to open backup files create create by Veeam Backup & Replication.

Sorry for the simple question, that’s no doubt been asked and answered before… Today we have VCC for our off-site cloud backups, and the immutability is provided by the “Insider protection” which in short means we pay for the privilege but we do not need to worry about disk space consumption over and above our actual backups. For lower cost we’re considering object storage, probably Wasabi, and we’ll want immutability there also. The thing I need to be sure of, is the disk space required. I am not sure if the copy jobs would have a specific backup mode, but with incremental, if they’re immutable, you’re previously overwritten backups are kept for longer? Disk space could be double what you have before? Thanks in advance for any insight on real world disk space requirements. Today, 27TB approx. is our VCC repo and as I say, the immutable data is retained at a fixed additional cost so we don’t know the size of that.
Dear Cyber Security Space community, We are very happy to share that we now organized our first virtual community event for this group on April 09, 2025. Please find the link to your event: We will be talking about current states of Cyber Security, current security risks, budgets, ransomware threats and give personal experiences from the field. We will end the session with a Q&A to talk with you guys about an agenda for upcoming events and will be sharing our ideas so far. This will be an interactive session. To start with we set the event to a duration of 1,5 hours. This will also be discussed and since we won’t be able to meet in person we don’t want to stretch the agenda too much for a virtual event. Make sure you don’t miss this so mark your calendars! 😊 The CSS leader team Tobias, Dips, Lukas

I actually wanted to present AsBuiltReport.Veeam.VBR in a recap article on my blog, but in the last few days I had the opportunity to use the package again in another productive infrastructure and came to the decision that a complete article must be provided here! Because this product is simply awesome! The subtitle on AsBuiltReport "Document Your Datacenter With PowerShell" says it all, but see for yourself… A few months ago I reported on the Veeam.Diagrammer (also included in the AsBuiltReport.VBR) in my Recap #4, which was also provided by Jonathan Colon. In my opinion, Jonathan and his team have brought a masterpiece onto the market with the AsBuiltReport product. There is a large selection of modules, including for various products from Veeam, VMware, Microsoft, NetApp and others. Be sure to check out the other solutions too. The provision of the PowerShell module and how to use the tool are described in detail on the websites linked above and in GitHub. I will still show the step

Veeam newbie and first-time poster here (go easy on me!) … I am trying to attach an Ubuntu Linux 24.04 “minimal” server to a VBR13 test environment. This server is only intended to provide backup storage for VBR. While attempting to add the host as a managed server, I get the following error: “Setting backup server certificate Error: Remote failed with message: /opt/veeam/deployment/veeamdeploymentsvc: boost::filesystem::copy_file: Invalid cross-device link: "/tmp/VeeamUpload_20250328T170010Z/ServerCertificate", "/etc/veeam/certs/cert.p12"--tr:Failed to install server certificate” /tmp and / (where /opt and /etc reside) are separate logical volumes. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? VBR13 imported OVA (VMware), Console (Windows Server 2019), and Ubuntu server all on local LAN. Managed credentials for Ubuntu added in VBR Console seem to work. Thanks in advance!
I am currently running Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) version 12.3.0 and encountering the error "Permission denied (public key)" when trying to add a component server running Ubuntu 22 using SSH keys. Upon reviewing the logs on the Ubuntu 22 component server, I repeatedly see the following error: "Unable to negotiate with 10.0.0.8 port 64513: no matching key exchange method found. Their offer: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 [preauth]." It appears the VBR backuo server is offering outdated or non-compliant algorithms, such as diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, hmac-sha1, and also requires the deprecated ssh-rsa for public key authentication. As a result, my SSH connection from the backup server (10.0.0.8) to the component server fails, and I see the "Permission denied (public key)" error in the VBR console. I prefer to use SSH keys for authentication, and the SSH configuration (sshd_config) on the component server includes the following settings: GSSAPI Key Exchange Algorithms: gss-group14-sha25
I’ve been googling and am about to open a support case, but I’m checking here first. I have just built my first linux proxy servers using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Super easy, works great. Except I have two more that I’m trying to build as CDP proxy’s. I can setup as regular VMware Proxy’s, but when I attempt to install the CDP Proxy, I get the below errors. Error Failed to save Veeam CDP proxy: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it <IP Address>:6182 Error Infrastructure item save failed Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it <IP Address>:6182 This is my first time using Linux CDP proxy’s. I did have Windows Proxy’s in place but was having an issue with starting the CDP service on those machines after upgrading to 12.1 and decided to just remove those VM’s because they were 2012 R2 and are being replaced/retired anyway. Unfortunately, I’m not super well-versed in Linux so I’m learning here. This sounds like a netwo

Hi, I am getting this error: Failed to prepare guest for hot backup. Error: VSSControl: -2147212522 Backup job failed. Discovery phase failed. Cannot start empty snapshot set. VSS error: VSS_E_SNAPSHOT_SET_IN_PROGRESS. Code:0x80042316. I’m aware this is a VSS related error and have been trying to work with this for a while. It happens on one of our servers every 3 or 4 days. It seems something is using the VSS service at the same time as the backup. The Veeam tech article about it so helpfully recommends ensuring your backup is not running at the same time as other backup or VSS related services. Yeah, got that! There aren’t, at least as far as I’m aware. The server does run shadow copies but this is at 7am and 12pm, backup is at 8pm. I’ve set up a scheduled task to stop the VSS service just before backups run but whatever is using it, restarts it. Any ideas about how to detect what process is using the VSS service? Thanks.
I need to migrate multiple VMs from the old vCenter to the new one and want to keep the existing Veeam backup chain. Is there an easier method than the Veeam VM Migrator Utility?

Hyper-V için 2012 ve 2012 R2 sürümleri destek dışı kalacak; minimum desteklenen sürüm 2016 olacak. Nutanix AHV için
I was installing the VBR Console on my PC, and when connecting to the backup server, there was a version mismatch that the Veeam User Guide (HelpCenter) spelt out correctly. Here is the guide on how to “Install Veeam Backup Console on a Jump Server for Secure Access”, discussing all the prerequisites, installation steps, limitations and workaround. I searched through the community but could not find any post discussing the upgrade process for the latest version of VBR. Therefore, I will be discussing these steps below. Two months ago, December 3, 2024 to be precise. Veeam launched Veeam Data Platform v12.3, introducing powerful enhancements that significantly strengthen data resilience. This release introduces advanced capabilities that strengthen enterprise data resilience and security, as discussed in this blog post. Therefore, I will not be discussing these as there are tons of articles in the community discussing the features/capabilities as referenced below. https://community.veea
