Solved

Hi Team,I have a site that uses Wasabi object storage for both archiving and have “copy backups to object storage as soon as they are created” checked in the SOBR. This has been ticking away for some months now doing what I’d expect it to be doing. Now I need to test a full scale recovery from this environment, assuming we have a total loss of all on premises infrastructure, including the VBR server. I have spun up a new VM in our DR environment and installed VBR. My next step was to connect to the object storage bucket and attempt to recover VMs from this. But when I attempt to connect I get a warning “Selected object storage repository is already managed by another backup server. If you continue, all jobs currently using this repository will fail. Proceed?” I don't want the current jobs to fail, as this is only a test. Can I still connect to this repository and only read the objects without modifying it? Or can it be mounted in read only? Or is there another way I should be doing thi

HelloI want to get VMSP and VMTSP general certificate but it only appears the individual one (like cloud service provider) how can I get the general one, like the ones before (VMTSP and VMSP 2020/2021)

Hello,I would like to use veeamone with more than just install it and connect backup and virtualisation infrastructure.Do you have some good ressources to link or share the use case you have on your customer or internally ?I already find some good report and solve the alert the product give by default but I think this product could be more usefull with more knowledge.I don t find a lot of ressource with google about it and the main feature I could implement Thanks for your help :)

Buongiorno a tutti, venerdì ho sudato nel tentativo di installare un mini ambiente di Kubernetes su delle macchine linux, per avere un mini lab dove vedere in azione K10.Ho provato sia Microk8S di Canonical: https://microk8s.io/sia Minikube: https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/e ho fallito miseramente con entrambi. Sia con le guide presenti sui siti stessi sia cercandone altre in rete. A tutte mi pare manchi sempre qualcosa e alla fine non parte nulla.Qualcuno ha fatto una installazione del genere e… conosce un how to 4 dummies? 😊Grazie! 

Good morning everyone, I sweated on Friday in an attempt to install a mini Kubernetes environment on linux machines to have a mini lab where I could see K10 in action.I tried both Canonical's Microk8S: https://microk8s.io/and Minikube: https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/and failed miserably with both. Both with the guides on the sites themselves and by searching for others on the net. All of them always seem to be missing something and in the end nothing starts.Has anyone done such an installation and--does anyone know a how to 4 dummies? 😊Thanks!P.S.: I will soon try also this post from Geoff:  

Hello there! Recently I installed a new VEM server and when I tried to establish connection with my VBR servers i get this message below:I had ever test communication on 9392 and 9405 TCP ports and it works fine.Any idea about this?

Hey everyone. I have problem with my Kasten with AD/LDAP auth method.When I use Kasten with the LDAP authentication method, a blank page returns when I route. However, I do not encounter such a problem with the token authentication method. When I try the same configurations in my second openshift environment, there is no problem. And there is no problem in my Dex container when I checked the logs. So in my Auth pod, I get the error "Fluentbit connection error, connection refused". I also get this error in my second Openshift environment that running LDAP, but at least the LDAP login screen appears. I checked my Dashboard URL many times and there is no problem with the URL. Why could it be? Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello, I wanted to be sure that fast clone is enabled but I can’t see it anywhere.As I remember on v11 it was written in the “Action” description.I’m using Synology NAS connected directly via iSCSI to the Windows Server 2022.It’s formatted as ReFS (64KB).You can see that it was a Synthetic Full but FastClone nowhere to be seen.  

We need to take backup of Vmware VM to On-prem and Replicate to Azure. Also Need failover from on-prem to azure and then failback from azure to on-prem.How can we configure?

Hi, Possibly a question for @Federica or @haslund. As the VMCE & VMCA are yet to have their new exam & certification released, willl there be an extension to the expiry of the current VMCE & VMCAs?For example:I sat my VMCE 2021 in June 2021, my VMCE states it expires the 9th June 2023. Likewise I sat my VMCA in September 2021, and my VMCA states it expires the 1st September 2023. I’m conscious that this looks like it’s just an automation, but as we’re a VASP, and our ProPartner portal is showing this imminent expiry, that it could reflect badly on my organisation if my certifications have ‘expired’ even if there isn’t a replacement certification available. A second question on this, after the 2023 grade exams are available, how long will we have to upgrade before the certifications are counted as ‘expired’ within ProPartner? Thanks!

Hello Forum,Since I’m reconstructing everything I would like to seek some advices for WAN accelerators.We have Primary Site (Austria, Vienna) and Secondary Site (Serbia, Novi Sad).Backup to Primary:Backup Jobs going to Synology LUN that is connected via iSCSI to Windows Server (ReFS 64KB block size) + FastClone From Monday to Friday - Incrementals On Friday - Full Synthetic Backup 21:00 - 22:00 starting of the Backup Jobs Backup to Secondary:I would like to try and implement WAN Accelerators for this so that potentially we have better performance. 2 Source WAN Accelerators. 1 for large VMs and 2 for small VMs 1 Target WAN Accelerator.Question regarding Backup Copy Job:As I’ve read some documentation about WAN Accelerators I checked that Source WAN Acc should have better CPU performance so it doesnt need to be some high I/O performance device and for Target WAN Acc is opposite, is thsi true? Plan is then to use physical Windows Machine with SSD on Target WAN Accelerator How would I appr

Buongiorno, un mio cliente ha bisogno di un report che esamini tutte le esecuzioni di SureBackup e stampi un report con questo tipo di informazioni:La Vm denominata "VM01" è stata testata con successo 90 volte su 100 (90%)La Vm denominata "VM10" è stata testata con successo..... 50%La VM denominata "VM18" è stata testata con successo... 100%Esiste qualcosa di simile in Veeam One o deve essere creato con script powershell personalizzati?Avete avuto richieste simili in passato? Sembrerebbe proprio provenire da un percorso di certificazione iso xxxx o similare…Grazie

Hi,I recently decided to Install the community edition of Veeam Backup Replication on my home server.Each time the Install process seems to fail, then I’m met with the errors pictured below.I have installed it on my Gaming PC with no issues at all.I’ve scoured forums for countless hours and have found nothing that resolves this issue.Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Hi, I would like to upgrade our cluster to 1.26. But getting following messages on aggregatedapis-svc: 1 warnings.go:70] snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1beta1 VolumeSnapshot is deprecated; use snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1 VolumeSnapshot Upgrade K10 to 6.0.12 with helm charts, but still getting this. Does K10 support 1.26? If so, what is going wrong here? Regards

Hello guys,One of my customer has encounter the following error message in a backup job.I never saw this message before. The Veeam version is 11 last patch.It’s a linux repository.I asked to my customer to open a support case, but in parallel maybe one of you has already meet this one ?!

Ok, I had a test server which I used to test out Windows Agent backups.I’ve now built a more robust server to handle veeam (community edition as we only have a few servers), when I try to backup the same server, I get:I’ve removed the backup jobs, and uninstalled the agent both using the old server and manually going into Add/Remove programs, yet the same problem exists. I’ve also added the registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication AgentDiscoveryIgnoreOwnership DWORD=1Still no joy.  When I go into the registry editor on the machine in question, I can see why Veeam is having a problem.  The values in BackupServerIPAddress, JobSettings, and VBRServerName are all pointing to the wrong server. I’m loathed to start deleting this key.  What do I do to ensure this server I wish to backup now has the correct agent installed?RegardsIan

HI Community, I am currently using Veaam v12 B&R community edition.I have tried to add a service provider for ekco.I have followed steps from https://www.ek.co/publications/using-veeam-cloud-connect/Once I add veeam.cloudhelix.io and the username and password I get the below error.Is the issue down to the fact I am on community edition V12 or is it an issue from ekco’s side?(I have already logged a ticket with ekco support to see what their response will be) 

My question is, if we are excluding SQL data volumes from the original backup job, can we still do full SQL backups and transaction logs using application-aware processing?For some background, in our current state my team is backing up our Windows SQL VMs using a Backup job, then use a Backup Copy job to get those offsite. Since the team has historically ran SQL Agent jobs to do daily full and hourly log backups for each DB they decided to exclude any volumes storing SQL data from the Veeam Backup job. I see the reasoning and I suppose this works, but I’d like to shift to including Veeam on SQL backups so we can easily get those offsite using the existing backup copy jobs.Finally, a sort of related question, if we can use Veeam and the SQL agent jobs in tandem, which one should truncate those? In my testing I’ve had to set the SQL Agent job to copy only mode for things to work, but I feel like setting Veeam to copy only mode should work as well, but I must be missing something since I

Hello to all,As I configure a testing Job with Multiple VMs with the same OS, I can see that there is no difference in the deduplication rate in Report when I run the VM itself alone or in the Group.One more point to ask:The VMs in the Backup Copy Job are all started at the same time when the job starts.Is this how it should be or they need to be run one at a time?

Hello,I am using kasten-io with an S3 bucket with MinIO. For a long time I have wanted to view the backups and see if they are actually being saved in the S3 bucket.Is there a way to see the differential of backups that I have in the mini?In the Kasten-io dashboard, is there a way to see what restore point exists to import it to the destination? Thanks in advance.

I’m very new to Veeam. We use VMware vSphere. I need to be able to backup an entire VM, and be able to restore just individual files from that backup. I thought that doing a “VMware Backup” type of job, with “Guest File Processing” enabled would allow me to do that (i.e., restore just one file from drive E:, as an example). But when I try “Restore Guest Files” on that VM, , I get “Unable to mount disk: unsupported disk type” when it goes to Browse. Have I totally misunderstood what type of backup job I need to be doing, to be able to do an individual file restore of a Windows VM? What type of backup do I need to be doing then, to accomplish what I need? This type of backup looks like I can only restore the entire VM, like a bare metal recovery. Which is good, and I might need that, but I definitely need to be able to restore individual files. Do I need to make a backup job of type “Windows Computer”? I won’t need to push the Agent, because the VM is always connected.Sorry for the newb

my goal isI use veeam to back up my vmware vm machine to a NAS, and then I back up the backup files from nas to aws s3. Then I can directly read the files from s3 and restore the vm machine in aws.But I am currently encountering a problem. The backup from veeam to nas and then from nas to aws s3 goes smoothly, but my veeam cannot read the files backed up by nas in aws s3. Please tell me how to set it correctly.

I am currently developing a DR solution.  I currently have the backup on the source side exporting snapshots.  On the destination side, I have an import job configured to restore workloads with exclusions of certain objects.Issue:I run the the import job for the 1st time today (within 24 hour clock). K10 imports the snapshot from the external S3 target. Then restores the workloadsAfter some testing, I wipe out all the restored workloads, including the namespace to reset the destination for another test.When I re-run the import job:K10 imports the restore point The job marks as complete Without restoring any workloads Question:How can I re-run the import job multiple times to fully test my DR solution?

Hello,I have an issue with my Kasten Multi-Cluster setup recently. When I try to add a secondary cluster, I have this error message : ERROR: API server connection failed (cluster_name: lab)  -> ServiceAccount credentials appear to be invalid    -> the server has asked for the client to provide credentials (post selfsubjectaccessreviews.authorization.k8s.io)  I able to see the cluster in the multi-cluster interface but the secondary cluster is in error 500  I checked logs in pod logging-svc and I noted this line : {"File"=>"kasten.io/k10/kio/multicluster/multicluster_proxy.go", "Function"=>"kasten.io/k10/kio/multicluster.serveHTTPHelper", "Level"=>"error", "Line"=>120, "Message"=>"Could not authenticate request for secondary cluster", "Time"=>"2023-11-13T10:52:24.666972037Z", "clusterName"=>"lab", "cluster_name"=>"0567e4fd-4c4f-45df-ac5c-b18b6abf9385", "error"=>{"message"=>"Cluster ID not found", "function"=>"kasten.io/k10/kio/multicluster.Authenti

Hello,We had 13 Backup Jobs that were all started in the same time period from 21:00 to 22:00.VBR server had 32 GB of RAM and 10 cores. It was a VM.All Backup Jobs were with single VM inside of it.Was this good approach or it was too much for our VBR Server to handle.We didn’t have any off-host Proxies and VBR Server and 60% of VMs were on the same Hyper-V host.It was acting then as only proxy for those jobs as I can assume.What would be the better approach on this?I’m still trying to grasp Veeam with his technologies as best I can..
