adding hyper-v host failed with "invalid credentials" noting that we don't have domain and the Veeam and Hyper-V are on the same subnet.

Hi Team,Actually, we restored one VM through instance recovery and it’s completed successfully, but one NFS datastore mounted on vCenter datastore. why? and one more thing if it is mount then after should be delete automatically? why it is deleted manually?is there any option available to avoid mounting or delete automatically.     

Hi Folks, What has your object storage journey with Veeam been like and at what stage are you at now?I started using S3 compatible the minute Veeam introduced it as capacity tier for Scaleout repos. I leveraged a 4 node Docker Swarm cluster with Minio. I chose Docker Swarm at the time as Minio advised to use containers for multitenancy and mentioned Kubernetes. I arrogantly thought I would read up over the weekend and on Monday get it going. That was not the case to say the least. Docker Swarm was much simpler and I eventually went with that. The solution worked well but my lack of deep understanding put some restraints on what I could do, not to mention that Docker Swarm, while being a solid solution did not have the incredible fine tuning capabilities that Kubernetes has.Since then it has been all Kubernetes and S3 never far behind. It got to the point where I simply had to defect to the S3 compatible side of the force completely 😁. So what was your journey, what are you using. What

Hallo zusammen, viele meiner Kunden setzen VBR mittlerweile - auf meinen Rat hin - in eine VM, um somit flexibel zu sein und z.B. auch via Replication die VM selbst in ein zweites Datacenter (z.B. auf lokale Disks eines ESXi-Servers) zu kriegen und im K-Fall mit wenigen Klicks die Replika-VM hochzufahren - so weit so gut. Einer meiner Kunden betreibt ein auf Nutanix AHV basiertes Cloud-RZ und auf der primären Site vSphere. Die Herausforderung ist nun, mit sehr geringer RTO im Falle eines Ausfalls der Primärsite auf der DR-Site (AHV) Instant Recovery zu fahren - das geht ja gegen alle Hypersivoren, also alles gut - nur ohne Veeam-Instanz nicht machbar. Möglichkeit 1: Spricht etwas dagegen, den VBR Server als VM von vorn herein auf AHV laufen zu lassen (dort stehen dann auch S3 Tiers mit Immutability und ggf. auch andere Repos) und eben über eine Site-to-Site-VPN o.ä. die Repos und Proxies in der Primärsite anzusprechen? Was benötigt man da für Performance / Latenz oder seht ihr Vor- und

Hi folks,We have Veeam B&R and a hardened repo for all our backup jobs. Repo is configured to allow 8 concurrent tasks. We run a SAP backup job every 10 minutes. When SAP backup runs while there is any other job running that uses all the connections to the repo, the SAP job fails. I’ts unable to wait for the repo to have any ‘channel’ available as other jobs do.Is there any setting to tell the SAP job to wait until there is any available connection to the repo?Thanks in advance

Hello All, I have a TAPE job that works well until one day is skipped, for example, due to a holiday. In such cases, it tries to back up the missed days as well, but then it no longer fits on the tape. Currently, there are 10 processes in the TAPE job, but if a day is skipped, it becomes 20 processes, and if two days are skipped, it becomes 30 processes.I can only fix it by deleting the TAPE job and creating a new one. This again only works well until a day is skipped. I am using the following: Veeam Backup and Replication 12.1.1.56, TAPE: IBM ULT3580-HH6 SCSIAny idea? Thanks,

Hi all. The situation is a little unusual, in our infrastructure there is a working version of Veeam Backup & Replication 11 running on a virtual machine with Windows Server 2019 Standard, everything is fine with it. But recently we launched a spare physical server in the data center, I exported a virtual machine with Veeam there, and now it does not start.Of the 16 Veeam services, 3 cannot start - “Veeam Backup Service”, “Veeam Broker Service” and “Veeam CDP Coordinator Service”, so the management console does not start. Error 1064 “An exception occured in the service when handling the control request”.Please help me understand what’s going on, this is a complete copy of a virtual machine, just running on a different physical host, what’s the problem?

Does Veeam allows to delete a specific Restore Point via GUI? I want to delete an oldest full backup. Can I directly delete it from the physical location? I reckon this is not going to corrupt my backup chain as I already have another full backup.  

Hello Team, I recently passed the VMCE v12 Exam however the name on the certification badge is incorrect. How do I update the name on the badge? Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi, I am designing the replacement architecture for our Veeam Backup environment and need some help understanding where the traffic flows when using hardened repositories in a SOBR. Our current environment we have the backup server at a remote location with direct attach storage and a backup proxy at our data center with direct attach storage.   Each day incremental backups run at the datacenter writing backups to the backup proxy which are then copied to the backup server at the remote location.  Each month synthetic full backups are created at the remote location.  The hardware is end of life and needs to be replaced. I would like to keep the backup server and backup proxy and utilize hardened Linux repositories at both sites.   The primary backups would be configured with a 14 day retention period and incremental backup mode.   The backup copy location would consist of 3 Linux servers with 28 8TB SSDs set up as hardened Linux repositories.    What I need to understand is when synthe

I just got all of our systems upgraded to v12.  With that said, I have two clients using hardened repo’s and two different people set them up, neither of them were me, and the system I’m working on now - the engineer that set that up left the company and moved on a couple months ago.  I planned on dipping into these a while ago but never had the time and am now thrust into it.  And my linux skills are still fairly basic, maybe intermediate at best.So here’s what I have:The configuration, not that I think it matters, but is a Ubuntu VM running on a Synology NAS with a virtual disk mounted to the VM.  I upgraded from v11 to v12 but the repository became unavailable during this process.  Single-use credentials are in place and I think I’ve mostly got around the learning curve on this, but can’t quite make connections on things.There are two accounts, I’ll call them “repouser” and “admin”.  Repouser is the account that should have permissions to the repo at /mnt/veeamrepo/backups.  Admin i

Hi! I’m using a NFS share for K10 DR. The retention policy in the DR policy was changed to only keep 1 hourly version. Therfore only one version should be kept. It looks liket the old version get retired. But the space on the nfs volume isn’t freed up. Also the usage report shows that the storage is in use by kasten-io. What can I do to free up the space? Is there any manual disk space reaclaim job which needs to be run?

Hello, I have configured oidc auth on my Kasten K10 instance.The SSO returns the user groups.If the user is in the group k10-admins, they get unrestricted permissions, which is as expected, and are redirected to the K10 dashboard.The problem I confront is that users who are not in the k10-admins group also access the dashboard but do not see any data. On their profile, they can see that they have no permissions at all.I want to restrict access to the K10 dashboard page for users who are not in the 'k10-admins' group, similar to standard login procedures. Best regards, Mike

I had a few questions about backup from onsite computers to the cloud. I am currently using the community edition of veeam backup and replication. The backups are currently going to onsite storage. Does the community edition has the capability to backup to cloud storage? If so how? Is there any difference between the community edition and the essential edition aside from the number of workloads they can support? I see that veeam supports backups to AWS, Azure, and Google. Does veeam support backing up to other cloud storage providers?

Hi all,I am having my blueprint for backuping elasticsearch database.Blueprint looks quite the same as the original one, but with just hardcoded values for username and password.But, unfortunately, I am getting this errorLook at the first line of the snapshotAs you can see, my {{ toJson .Profile }} is not even rendered correctly, so I am getting value of ‘null’ for that.Not sure why that is happening. My elasticsearch statefulset, which I am trying to backup, is running inside ‘elastic-kasten-test’ project on OpenShift. And my kasten pod are running inside ‘kasten-io’ project. Strange thing is that I cannot see profiles from elastic-kasten-test project, but I can see them from kasten-io project.Cannot see profiles in elastic-kasten-test projectProfiles seen in kasten-io projectAlso, here is my profile on Kasten UI. Can someone please help with this?Thank you all in advance!

We have Kasten K10 on installed via operator on multiple clusters. All of the K10 instances seem to have excessive amounts of helm revision when viewed with helm history k10 Is this normal behavior? We seem to be getting ~200 revisions per hour.

Hello, is it supported to have Hyper-v VM with bitlocker enabled inside the guest for encrypting the data disk ? 

This is going to be my first time setting up Veeam ONE (Enterprise Manager?). Where is some good documentation on the product as far as functionality goes. Also, what are some, if any, best practices for setting it up? Should I run it in directly on the VBR server or spin up it’s own VM? Anything will help at this point.  Thanks in advance!

Hi,i have a customer where he has application “redis” who is controlled by redis-controller, the redis namespace have 3 deployments, and the csi driver does not support the volume snapshot so we go with generic backup.only one of the deployments get injected by kanister sidecar, and the remaining two did not, after troubleshooting we saw that the 2 deployments didnt accept the annotation:”k10.kasten.io/forcegenericbackup”, and it will be removed automatically after a few seconds.is there any possible way to inject kanister inside these deployments without adding this annotation?

Hello,We have a user who has left the company, and their last backup on VBM365 is from 25/01. The issue is that we don't have any restore points, even though we have a retention policy of 7 years.What do you think could be the problem?Thank you.

I am trying to upgrade 11a (11.0.1.1261_22020302) to V12.1 via iso and when it gets to step 3 (Upgrading Veeam Explorers) a popup says that it can't find VeeamExplorerForSQL.msi_explorers.  Error: The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.It is looking for that file in this location (which does not exist):C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Setup\Temp\80ca74a8-4c01-451b-b8df-3d76e7abf376\FixFiles\I can't find it anywhere on the machine.  I did find an old log file that references that file that references version 9.5.  I found that file inside an old 9.5 update.  I extracted it and put it in the location asked for, but it still does not like it. 

Hi there in Virtual World :)Running Veeam 11 - We experienced a complete full “Files to Tape” backup when the daily Tape job ran for the first time after entering Daylight Saving Time (DST) last weekend.ALL files in our backup Disk repository (xx TB) - that means UNCHANGED Veeam backup files from the last 4 months - was all sent to Tape once again - taking several job-runtime days to finish - and filling up a lot of new Tapes, which we needed to supply into the Tape library.Have anybody else experienced similar issues?As far as I have read  - Veeam operates in the UCT format - which should not be sensitive due Server time changes or DST - except changes in the local job time schedule:Daylight savings time - Veeam R&D ForumsDaylight saving switch changes job start time - Veeam R&D Forums We didn`t have any other issues running the usual VM Machine jobs to disk.This issue has been raised to the Veeam Support - and it has been escalated to their RnD engineers.So hopefully they wil

Moin,besteht die Möglichkeit bei dem Enterprise Manager einen Cloud Connect B&R und einen normalen B&R hinzuzufügen, denn ich habe immer das Problem das er die Lizenz von den EPM nutzt. Dadurch kann ich entweder die Cloud Connect Lizenz oder die B&R Lizenz einspielen und mir werden dadurch die Funktionen gesperrt. Danke
