Hi, I’m trying to use a Veeam proxy on a satellite location to backup local resources to a configured VDC Vault.

There are two VMware sites, Prod and DR, both got its own vCenter and network infrastructure. VBR and VRO are installed on DR site (vCenter). Both vCenter are configured in VBR, data flow will be with backup proxies on prod vCenter to repo server on DR site. I built recovery plans with network (port) translation done by recovery location(s), That is working fine. There is a vLAB (runing on DR-Host) with Networks definied on DR site, also working fine. So I tried to work with Lab Groups in VLab to get some DC and DNS VM runing as a base infrastructure but it failed, as the “prod networks” are missing on the DR-Host where the vLAB is runing. I’ve already defined that network port group in the vLAB config on VBR (and resynced with VRO). Anyone using Lab groups? BTW. it is V12.3 not V13 yet.

Are there anything besides the tape that need to be preserved before removing the old tape library? What are the steps to add the new tape library?https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/connecting_tape_devices.html?ver=120Following this the drive will automatically appear and how about the media? If the tapes are added to the tape library they will automatically appear in the media.Last step will be to create a Tape job

HelloI am experiencing a behavior that seems unusual compared to my previous experiences. I have three Tape pools with different retention policies. When I try to move a tape from one of these pools to the 'Free' pool, I receive a notification stating that moving the tape will cause it to be formatted.Is this normal behavior? Additionally, how can I remove a tape from a pool without it being formatted?

I am upgrading my Home Lab to new hardware.  Re: I can’t get the register email for mike.mckenney@scsiraidguru.comVeeam Server:  I upgraded the Veeam Server to Windows 10 22H2 from Windows 7.  I can’t install Windows 11 on this box.  I had to remove one of my three tape drives (SCSI) to go to 10.  I have two SAS tape drives.  Veeam is on 11A.   Veeam is working on all boxes except my HP Z480 below.HP Z840 Workstation:  I installed Windows 2022 Standard Server with Hyper-V.  It is in my workgroup, workgroup.  It is in the same network and subnet as my Veeam Server, Windows 11 workstaion and all VMs.  Windows Firewall is turned off.  It was on Windows 10.   Hyper-V is working.  I have 6 Minecraft Servers for our children and family to play on.   They are 8 and 10.   All Ubuntu 24.04 VMs.   Java, Bedrock and Folia.  They love to play with mods and plugins.   I can’t get to the Community Downloads for v12GA and latest v12.   I never get to email from Veeam to register mike.mckenney@scsirai

My home lab: Veeam 11 server is on Windows 10.  I have 6 Ubuntu VMs on my HP Z840 workstation with Windows 2022 Standard Hyper-V.    How do I backup each VM separate so I can recover them.   Both are in a workgroup.    Veeam won’t recognize the 2022 Standard as a Hyper-V server.   Veeam 11 can see it as a 2022 Standard Server.   Do I need to install a Hyper-V agent or Windows Server agent on this box?

Company 2 – 40 Proxmox VMs (1 job = 1 VM) – timeframe 2We also run Health Check jobs, timeframes 3 and 4, also without any overlapping time.What do I need?At a minimum, I want toreceive two emails, one containing a summary report of all backup jobs for the day, and the other containing a summary report of all health checks.MaximumI want to receive 5 emails1. 1 summary report on completed Company1 backup jobs to 2 email addresses – company1user@domain.net and admin@domain.net2. 1 summary report on completed Company2 backup jobs to 2 email addresses – company2user@domain.

Hi everyone, We plan to integrate Veeam Backup and Replication with our SIEM as part of our security hardening. I would like guidance on the best way to forward Veeam logs and events to a SIEM platform. Looking for advice on supported methods, required settings, and any best practices or limitations.

Hi Community,Has anyone successfully reverted Veeam ONE from version 13 to version 12? Are there recommended steps or considerations to avoid issues during the downgrade? Any official guidance or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to disabled Web UI, without disabling Host Management UI? Our goal was to disable web ui because we’re not able to install a proper custom cert on it. So it would present an issue during our annual pen test

Hi All, I install veeam 13 appliance, and connect to it with Veeam Backup & Replication Console installled on windows, I can find backup job log on veeam 13 appliance (var/log/), but if my backup job created from windows console, I can’t find log , I check %ProgramData%\Veeam\Backup , but not find backup job log by job name, Backup jobs aren't synchronized between the web interface and the console, right?So where can I find the log files for backup jobs generated by the console?Thanks.

If we use forward forever incremental backup on the tape, can we disable the full backup schedule? 

Hello, I currently have an R740 with a NetApp E Series directly attached and am looking to use it as a hardened repo (rocky os). I am concerned that the 740 is near end of life, so wondering how difficult and what would the steps be if I was to replace the server with a new one in a year or two down the line?
