Solved

i have a problem. if the job starts it will finally give me this error: Error: Failed to call RPC function 'FcReadFileEx': An unexpected network error occurred. Failed to read data from file and the file is on a synology NAS and i can just enter that device and also i can just make a network map to the directory where the files are.. but somehow veeam stops working allready for a week..network is checked.. and all is Ok and i can reach the volumes etc..i did restart the veeam server VM and also restarted the services but still not working..if i go to the backup reposority and do rescan on the backup locations it will give the same errors..I cant find here any info about the error i have and hope someone can help me.the error from the mail is:Error: Failed to call RPC function 'FcReadFileEx': An unexpected network error occurred. Failed to read data from file [\\172.16.xx.xxx\VeeamBackupRepository\Escrow\VEEAM-Backup\1 - B2D ALL Daily Escrow\1 - B2D ALL Daily Escrow.vbm].

Hi Community,We are using as AV solution Sentinel One. This Solution isn’t standard included in the AntivirusInfo.xml for Secure Restore/SureBackup. So I had to create my own entry, based on very little info and no list of error codes. It’s working but I don’t feel 100% safe as it wasn’t standard included or supported. During a recent Veeam On Tour it was brought to my attention, that using a different AV solution other then the one that’s active on your server bring an extra level of security/check. Now standard on this windows servers os Defender installed.Defender is also standard part of the AntivirusInfo.xml. We don’t want 2 AV solutions add the same time active on our systems. However if we could for example with SureBackup start a PS script that activate Defender at the start of the job and deactivates it again add the end of the task. This would be a great solution to me. Has anyone here this kind of solution in place and would like to share the PS?What about the AntivirusInfo.

Forgive me for this new discussion and please do delete if it is not the right place to ask. I am trying to do a bit of studying around my job currently and wanted to clarify a few points with Veeam (in the process of doing a small course). I'm getting very confused with the differences between forward incremental and reverse incremental backups and wondered if you could clarify.  Am i correct in thinking when choosing forever forward incremental backup, that if there is no synthetic backup scheduled, then the first full backup is completed followed by incremental the days thereafter. Therefore, if you wanted to complete a full restore, you would need to restore that original full backup followed by every single incremental up to the date of the full restore?And if a full backup is done, the retention period is approx 6 months and there are no synthetic backups scheduled.. then if there is a day mid way through that the backup job fails, then this runs the risk of not being able to res

We recently purchased Veeam Orchestrator, and I’m going through creating a plan.Is there a course or class that goes over how to configure it? I’m not sure what type of Plan (CDP Replica/Replica/Storage/Restore) I should be choosing. I didn’t find a way to choose the individual servers or exclude VMs from the plan. From what it seems, I need to create new backup jobs of the critical VMs I want included on the plan.For some background I am backing up from VSphere to a local repository and wanting to test whether we can restore to a DR site vSphere using the latest backups.I also noticed that during the install of Orchestrator it installs ONE and B&R. Does that seem right? I don’t recall seeing an option to not install those. From what I’ve read it installs a lite version, but I’m not sure if I should configure anything in them.Thanks!

Hello,Regarding Forever Forward backups, is it necessary to create period full backups (either Active or Synthentic), or can you just go with the initial full backup and everything else is incremental? (I know it is probably at least RECOMMENDED to do periodic full backups, but let’s not worry about that for purposes of this post/question) If you were to go with just the initial full backup then leave the rest as incrementals, what happens if you have a corrupt/failed incremental backup in the chain, but need to do a restore of a file?  Is Veeam able (and smart enough) to work around it? (i.e., if it has a failed or corrupt incremental backup, is Veeam smart enough to start the next backup based on the last good incremental and basically ignore the failed/corrupt one?) Thanks! :-)

We have an onpremise Veeam server that runs the following jobs:1. Backup to local storage (weekly full, daily incrementals)2. Copy job to Linux hardened repository (immutable)3. Copy job to Azure Blob cool storage (immutable)Now i would like to have the Azure monthly backups moved to archive tier. I'm assuming i have to use SOBR for this. The following question arise:i create a second immutable repository with longer immutability, say 1 year. After moving the full backup, will it calculate ‘initial backup date + 1 year’, or ‘SOBR copy date + 1 year’? do i need a new container for this or can i just create a folder within a container? if a backup is still immutable can it be moved to the archive tier? copying backups obviously generates a large amount of traffic. Download backup from one repository, upload to another. Is there something i can do to limit the amount of traffic and costs? what's the risk here? To move data the local Veeam server needs to have modify permissions in both th

Hi there.Need to review my backup configuration after adding a linux immutable box and a 10 TB vcc cloud space. 20 vms ( 15 windows server and 5 linux ). About 6 TB storage space (compressed). One backup a day at night. veeam server is a physical windows 2022 server box with local storage. Here is my idea:First backup job on the veeam server itself. Backup copy on a scale out repository based on the local linux immutable storage and vcc cloud storage.Any suggestion?thanks in advance,Max ( Italy)

hi, I would like to know that, can we directly restore to on-prem from S3 glacier (archiving tier) using SOBR ? 

Is there a way to replicate VMware virtual machines to Azure?

hi, I have veeam server with perpetual enterprise socket base on VM and I would like to migrate my veeam server from VM to bare metal, so can I still use my perpetual enterprise socket base ?

Hi, I was working with older version of veeam long ago and I remember I never had any issues with it, currently I am trying to set a backup and restore solution and I’m evaluating veeam with our Ovirt Node 4.5.4 infrastructure.I did the setup step by step and later installed the RHV plugin and connected to the engine and got the proxy vm up and running I can setup backup jobs and all is good until this point, I do get a warning during backup but it finishes anyway, here is the error I get :{VM-Name}: Image transfer URL is inaccessible: CURL error 6: Couldn't resolve host name, switching to the proxy URLI tried to restore an VM and I am now getting this error and task fails:10/18/2023 2:18:16 PM Error    {VM-Name}: Unable to write data block.

Morning all. Hoping someone can help identify the best method available to us for migrating to new hardware. Overview of current setup:All in one VBR server (physical)  Currently on v11 Local storage (ReFS volume)  SOBR using Wasabi S3 for the capacity extent. Backups are copied to capacity.  1 job (agent managed) backing up 7 physical servers at remote sitesOverview of new setup:All in one VBR server (physical)  Fresh install of v12 Local storage (ReFS volume)How would we best approach moving the data/job from the current setup to the new setup? The approach needs to consider the following: Ideally, we want to use VeeaMover in v12 to move the data between current and new setup so that we maintain the ReFS block cloning savings.  The storage from the new system cannot be directly attached to the current system, but the servers are on the same LAN.  We want to use a SOBR on the new system that utilises the same Wasabi S3 bucket so that we don’t have to re-seed wasabi (if this is possibl

We are planning to replicate from DC to DR. which ports need to be open for this? we just replicate and recover from replication we also plane deploy the Backup proxy at DR. Thanks 

Hi Heros,can some one tall me details about the VRO? Like what is the main purpose of using VRO, what is the license type for VRO, I have currently VBR enterprise so if i want to using VRO which type of License I need, If my primary VBR goes down is it possible to recover the VBR using the VRO? is it possible to use VBR like the cluster? I know that Veeam Not supported the clustering, so if I need cluster type solutions what can I do for this? Thank you

Hi, my customer has centOS 8 installed on bare metal, i have already installed agent on centOS8 but it showed not supported. any solution ? 

hi veeam communityI want to turn on the firewall of the backup server and configure the firewallI have veeam backup and enterprise manager on my serverThe servers that are backed up are mostly on hyper-v cluster.There are several physical servers, including SQL Server, which is also a cluster.My question is how can I do this very accurately and professionallyIs there a tool for this?How can I test whether I have considered all the desired ports or not?Thank you for sharing all your experiences with me

I have a Hyper-V VM in TN. Our VBR is in TX. I set the backup job for said Hyper-V VM to use on-host proxy and store data to a repo local to the Hyper-V VM in TN.  Started the job ~1940 CST and let it run, it was stuck on 50% completion, and stuck on hard disk 1 processing (like below) for almost two hours. I ended up stopping the job, not gracefully, but immediately. 7:41:16 PM    Hard disk 1 (931 GB) 1024 KB read at 1 MB/s    01:49:24 I’m using an NFR to test this because we have a Hyper-V VM in TN that we want to bring to TX but to VMware using Instant Recovery (Instant Recovery to VMware vSphere - User Guide for VMware vSphere (veeam.com)) I was directed here for possible help. I have logs here https://we.tl/t-CHOg5OnEjz  (make sure to click Agree if prompted, I tested it out using WeTransfer). If anyone could point me to the direction “why” the job froze and didn’t process the disk, I’d be grateful. EDIT: P.S. - The second hard disk processed fine.. 7:41:16 PM    Hard disk 2 (931

Why Veeam isnt’t able to use the whole capacity of LTO-tapes? E.g.: Why can't Veeam write a new mediaset to the end of another mediaset?Tapes are in the same mediapool. Mediapool setting “Do not create, always continue using current media set” ist active. If i edit some settings on Backup-To-Tape-Job, a new MediaSet-Name is setting. On next run of this job veeam uses a new fresh tape, although the last tape still has enough storage capacity.I’ve got LTO-7 Tapes (12TB mx. capacity). Veeam uses, for example, only 2TB of capacity in case of doubt.

Does Veeam plan to provide an install platform for Linux-based OS, referring to the installation of the Veeam Backup and Replication Application?

Hello all,I have really small environment(manufacture) with 2x virtual server on HyperV where HPE autoloader is connected over switch. This autoloader is used as backup destination of course. After installation of Backup Server on one of the servers(this server has also other role), Veaam discovered share and automatically added as Backup Repository. This share has different purpose, not for Veaam. Because is the only repository I'm not able to remove it from Veaam. Any hint?
