Solved

Good morning,Looking for advice on managing storage within an integrated vCenter/Veeam configuration where my backups at backing onto an external storage device. I’m not going to lie I am still timid working in these environments because I have never been to play around in a non production environment so I think it best to get some advice form those of you who are well versed in these products. So the situation is over the years we have created various jobs when issues occurred during backups and now I am wanting to understand the proper way to delete old backups in order to give the NAS some breathing room.  I didn't want to just login to the NAS and literally delete files as I’m pretty certain the VMWare/Veeam setup is aware of all files and folders and don’t want to break the linking.What is the proper way to clean up old backups and have the system correctly identify space and removed items etc. Thank you.

Dear Veeam team, Does anyone have information about an upcoming roadmap regarding Copilot and / or ChatGPT content backup? I have a first customer who is interested in such a solution. To go into detail: The customer wants to backup both “outputs” and “inputs” from and to both tools.The entered command / prompt / question as well as the AI output is to be backed up to provide easy retention and restore management. Can someone provide information? Thanks in advance! BestLukas

Just wanted to know How Veeam support Openstack and Hypervisor for VMware

We are attempting to script a way to remove offline Tape backups from Veeam so that they can be reused without error. Can someone please help us with the correct cmdlet and syntax to search for all offline tapes and remove them from catalog? I have attached the script we are working with. It searches all media but does not find any offline tapes and it does not error out. # Get all media pools$mediaPools = Get-VBRTapeMediaPoolforeach ($mediaPool in $mediaPools) { Write-Host "Checking media pool: $($mediaPool.Name)" # Get all tapes in the media pool $tapes = Get-VBRTapeMedium -MediaPool $mediaPool foreach ($tape in $tapes) { # Check the tape location for "Offline" status if ($tape.Location -eq "Offline") { Write-Host "Found offline tape: $($tape.Barcode) in media pool: $($mediaPool.Name)" try { # Attempt to remove offline tape Remove-VBRTapeMedium -TapeMedium $tape -Confirm:$false Write-Host "Re

Hi zusammen, ich nutze Veeam privat in meinem HomeLab. Nun ist die NFR Lizenz abgelaufen. Ich habe die Sales Kontaktiert ob mir dieser verlängert werden kann habe aber nach mehr als 14 Tagen nichts dazu gehört. Wir haben mehre Veeam Lizenz bei uns in der Firma im Einsatz und ich finde es schade das hier nur für ein Jahr so ein Paket angeboten wird.Wisst ihr noch eine Möglichkeit an eine NFR Lizenz zu kommen? 

Hello, We have Veeam O365 5b (5.0.1.225). By mistake we enabled the backup job for the entire organization, so that means it includes Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams, etc. and now our Repository disk is full.We need to do a clean-up of the repository disk, in order to leave just emails (users, groups, shared mailboxes, archives, etc.) and delete all data of Sharepoint, OneDrive, Teams, etc. Finally create a job only for emails (users, groups, shared mailboxes, archives, etc.)How can I  do that?Thanks for your help, Omar De Souza.

Hi Community,I want to post a question on the R&D Forum, but I see no option to do it, I Also tried to send a message, but the system doesn’t allow me to do it probably because I’m not an active member.Does anyone knows how to fix it?

I have a tape library with 48 slots. The file to tape jobs all run smoothly as long as the tapes that are summarized in the media pool and linked to the file to tape jobs are in the slots of the tape library _before starting_ the job.That worked fine as long as I left all the tapes for the respective job in the tape library, even if the job was finished or I had switched off the tape library.The reason at the time was that I didn't really have an external storage option for all 127 LTO tapes. So up until then I always left at least the 24 tapes for the 3rd offline repository in the library, as shown in the example.But since that is anything but right for fire safety reasons, I only noticed it now, after I no longer leave any tapes in the library except for the cleaning tape.Now I have the following banal problem:as you can see in the screenshots, the job starts. The tape library is empty, and so are the drives. Now I assume that Veeam knows which tapes are needed after the job initiali

Hi Veeam Community, We plan to onboard Veeam Data Cloud(VDC) for M365, i would like to confirm if VDC support multi-tenant, I couldn’t find more information on this, already check with local Veeam, but more toward sales, not much technical clarification on the concerning thing. appreciate if anybody can point me to resource that I could check. Thank you.

We use Veeam 12.2.0.334My Veeam is configured on such a way that a SNMP-trap is send as soon as a backup job run is finished. That works correct.Is it possible to configure Veeam on such a way that a SNMP-trap is send when a backup job run starts?

You can review my journey upgrading form 7.06 to 7.0.14 in this post.I have a 200Gi PVC that is 155GB written of tiny little index files. It does take quite a bit of time to clone the snapshot, and Kasten would time out after 15min of waiting. I fixed it by increasing kanister.backupTimeout  (KanisterBackupTimeout) parameter from 45min to 150min, and the kanister.podReadyWaitTimeout  (KanisterPodReadyWaitTimeout) from 15min to 45min.During my upgrade journey to 7.0.14, I saw that these parameters were depreciated and replaced by timeout.blueprintBackup and timeout.workerPodReady respectively. So naturally I added them to my helm update command and they were added to my k10-config ConfigMap.  My ConfigMap now has both old and new parameters for the Worker Pod Timeout (copy-data-xxxxx pod) set to 45min but I am now getting timeout errors that my “Pod did not transition into running state. Timeout:15m0s”I have tried without the old values in the ConfigMap as well and no change. I have als

ciao, a qualcuno è mai capitato di vedere questo errore nei report di un job che salva su un hardened repo linux? Errore capitato sporadicamente.Da interfaccia sulla Veeam Console l’immutabilità non appare impostata sul restore point corrispondente, anche se andando dentro il sistema operativo linux pare proprio che ci sia.Ho aperto un caso al supporto ma il cliente non è rapidissimo a fornire i log richiesti e al momento non ho accesso diretto al sistema quindi chiedo intanto qui se è cosa che avete mai visto 😉

Hi, does Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 require a Veeam Cloud Connect licence per customer when backing up from Azure to a remote (non-Microsoft) data centre?  Thanks, Nick

Running Veeam Backup for M365 v 7.1.0.1501 on a Windows Server 2002 Standard VM (the VM is AD joined) and trying to create a backup repository on an SMB shared folder on an AD joined NAS on my LAN, and I'm unable to add the repository. In Veeam, if I go: "Repositories > Add > Backup to Local Disk > Path" ...then enter the path to the SMB shared folder on the NAS ("\\NAS-NAME\SHARE-NAME\FOLDER-NAME"), I can click "Get free space" and Veeam calculates the correct amount of free disk space (so it seems to be able to see the NAS), but if I click "Next" to add the repository, I see: "Specified folder does not exist on the backup proxy. Do you want to create it?? If I click "Yes" I get the error: "Access to the path "\\NAS-NAME\SHARE-NAME\FOLDER-NAME" is denied." I'm able to browse the share in Windows explorer and browse to the folder I'm trying to add. Veeam is installed on an AD joined VM, and I'm using Windows (AD) credentials to log into Veeam console when it starts up.

Hello,If we not setup team chat this mean VDC only backup teams channel and teams group? Also when click ‘set up teams chats’ there are information ‘may incur additional cost’.Cost of what? Any calculation to estimate the extra cost?

We are doing backup evacuation to that we can recover some of the storage. However, after the evacuation, some of the backup files show the following:If I copy the path, it points me to an available extent where the file has been copied. I also did a restore with the some of the files shown above and able to do a restore. So why does it still show that the files are in an extent in maintenance mode which is not correct since the files have been moved already. Bug or defect or has a information purpose?

SQL Transaction log backup seems to be failing with "Failed to perform internal backup."We just did a big repair of one of our DBs. When I re-enable the backup job (with SQL transaction log backup), it started failing with the following error. Failed to perform internal backup (DBName): Code = 0x80040e31 Code meaning = IDispatch error #3121 Source = Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 Description = Query timeout expired COM error: Code: 0x80040e31 We can see data being moved as shown in the Report so is the Transaction Log backup really failing or it is just doing catch up with the large change? I’m sure if we run a full backup or possibly change the log backup interval to longer, this will resolve the error. Thanks.
