Immutable Backup for Daily Backups to a Harneded Linux Storage

Need some clarification. On this scenario i have a windows server that run an app and i want to backup the whole server (in case we ever need to restore it i can just dump it on a vm) but i want to make this whole backup daily and immutable. For what i understand there is a set number of days for immutability but not sure how does this work for daily backups.  Whats the correct settings to do on this case?  Are these backups like whole backup every day or its incremental only? Thanks.

How to move backups between different S3 (blob) providers and different Veeam B&R servers?

I asked this in the Veeam forums, I figure I ask here as well: I have Veeam B&R server1, with a SOBR repo, the capacity extend going to Azure. i have a Veeam B&R server 2, with a SOBR repo, with the capacity tier going to Wasabi.What is the best way of getting the backups going to Azure on Veeam server 1 to Wasabi on Veeam server 2? Goal is to eventually decommission server 1.I can recreate the backup and backup copy jobs on server 2, so then point forward, it will use Wasabi. But how will I get the existing historical backups in Azure on server 1 to Wasabi on Veeam server 2?

error host discovery

Hello friends, could you help me with a problem?I have a cluster with 8 HP servers, and they run Windows Server 2012 R2 and the Hyper-V feature.I have a Veeam Backup Community and every time I register my servers as a Hyper-V Stand-Alone Cluster, after a few hours, Host Discovery gives an error and gets disconnected. It only reconnects when I repeat the process of including the Host again, but then, after a few hours, it stops again.And with this problem, all the backups I schedule give an error.Does anyone have any tips for me?Please.

How to delete encrypted backup from VCC Repo

Hi folks, I have an interesting one.  I have a client whose 12.2 upgrade experienced issues and the server had to be rebuilt.  That said, the encryption password kept on file for whatever reason doesn’t match what was used in production.  I have reattached to the local and VCC repo that the client was using.  When the restore points are showing as Encrypted in the console, I don’t see an option to delete the datat.  For the local repo, I was able to just delete the data directly from the repo and rescan, but I don’t see an option to do the same on the VCC repo.  If I CTRL-Right click the job name in the Backups, I have an option to Remove from Configuration or Decrypt Backup.  Anyone have a suggestion on how to delete the restore points from the VCC repo aside from having support do it on the back-end (it’s an Iland/11:11 Systems VCC)?  I guess I can see an argument for not allowing locked restore points from being deleted in the console, but wanted to make sure there may not be anothe

Guide to setting up XFS on top of ZFS on Linux Hardened Repository?

A little while ago we purchased an additional SAS storage enclosure for our existing Linux Hardened Repository server. Due to the number of disks, and also because we only have a Host Bus Adaptor rather than a hardware RAID card, we attempted to set this up as 5 md-raid6 arrays of 12 drives each, combined into a single volume using LVM.While initially this seemed to be working, after a little bit we have been getting tons of I/O errors. We exhausted all possible troubleshooting steps in collaboration with Veeam support, but it just seems like this is a wrong setup for a Veeam repository.I recently discovered the concept of “XFS on ZFS”, i.e. the idea of being able to set up a ZFS ZPOOL - which would replace the md-raid and LVM parts mentioned above - and then format this with the XFS filesystem. Apparently this is not a new idea either, as I found it was mentioned briefly in a Veeam webinar at https://www.veeam.com/resources/videos/build-secure-repositories-17144.html?rwty.Does anyone

Hi alltogether,a customer of mine is planning a NetApp solution running NetApp Synchronous SnapMirror as DR / HA solution. I know it is offically not supported stated in the documentation.But is only the snapmirror to the secondary system and restore from second system not possible? Or is the backup from primary storage snapshot and snapshot creation possible within NetApp Synchronous Mirror? Thanks, Dennis

VBR Proxmox VM-Backup not possible - Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx)

Hi all, my first entry here :-)I use the Community Edition of VBR for backing up two proxmox-vms. Installation was no problem and worker was configured. If I backup linux-vms there is no problem. But if I try to backup two windows server 2022 vms (image for hpe proliant server) i get the error: Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx). If i check the guid in windows with power shell the guid seems to be good. I tried serveral things but it is not possible to do a backup.Anybody a solution or the same problem? Daniel

Inline Entropy Analysis

Who here is using it and who is not? I’m going to start this thread to get an idea of how long the first jobs will take following enable it. Please list the approximate size of your data, or specific jobs, and how long compared to normal the first backup was due to not using CBT. Myself I am wanting to enable it, but really wish I could enable it on 1 backup job at a time as the CPU load is not as much of a concern as the added time to my backup window.

Veeam on workgroup with domain shares

Anyone have insight into restoring files to a domain share when all Veeam components are in a dedicated workgroup? When we rebuilt our environment we made the choice to go workgroup vs. management domain (or primary domain). Little did we know at the time this was going to cause some headache restoring files back to our domain file share. We were under the impression the restore process would use the same account it used to back the data up but apparently it does not work this way (unless we’re missing something). Our current workaround is to restore this to a directory on the management server and then move it to the domain file share with an appropriately privileged user account. Not ideal but for smaller restores it’s working.

Oracle RMAN DISK and SBT ?

Hi, has anyone configured the Oracle plugin/RMAN file, so that one copy is made locally and then it is sent to the Veeam repository using the plugin? Is this possible or if I want to have a copy in two locations (local and Veeam) do I have to use, for example, the Linux Agent and copy the folder with the copy made by RMAN?

Worker failed for Proxmox VE

Hello Team,I just finished setting up Veeam backup community edition 12.2 and added Proxmox VE server into Veeam backup.  Now, I tried to configure “worker”, but it was failed.  I used DHCP and set static IP address.  The error I got was “Failed to obtain an IP address: The operation timeout exceeded” and “Worker xxxx(hostname) test failed.  I am not sure if worker name should be registered in DNS record, or it should be any hostname which doesn’t exist in DNS?  I tried to both of them, but I still have no luck.Also, the worker host seemed to be created on Proxmox VE server.  I can see this and I can ping this from Veeam backup host (Windows 11 PC).   I appreciate for you help!!

Onion Links detected -Identifying suspicious files

We have enabled malware scanning,  and We got a warning that some of the servers has some potential malware detection.Specifically "Onion Links". I enabled inline entropyI took a look a the full logs of the scan on mount server C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup\Malware_Detection_Logs , and only the logs for windows machine appear here,  however, as confirmed by Veaam's support, scanning backups for Linux machines are not supported at this time. So Linux VM logs are missing. When you click the malware detection event, there's nothing nor paths in the details.I equally checked c:\VBRCatalog\Index\Machines\Affected-Linux-VM\ransonwareidx , but i still cannot identify what files or path-to-Files.How can i scan our Linux machines to determine the paths to the files of the Onion links malware detected? I would like to identify what files are being flagged as malware so i can "mark clean" if need be.Any help regarding this please and thank you

I have seen may posts on the above topic but not is the resolutions have fixed my problem.  The account used is part of the local admin group, is part of the domain administrator group and has log on as a service.  When running the backups, most VM’s (VMware) fail with the subject matter.  When I run the Test Credential on the same backup group, most pass successfully, but then fail when the backup begins.At a loss as to where to go to next.

Veeam Backups taking up too much space

Good day everyone, Did some checks, seem as if for my HyperV Backups, reverse incremental is the only option recommended to save space. My management team dont plan to increase/purchase additional space anytime soon.I am seeing A LOT of VBK, VBM and VIB files,  i tell you, just incrementally taking up space. Over the weekend one fullbackup windows server agent job had like 4 vbk files (at various states/dates) with multiple vib backed over time (based on schedule not stipulated by me, but management). The local repo RAN out of space, 0 bytes free. This repo is like 7 TB, small i guess.Which is the best method you would recommend to save save space for both Hyper V and Windows Agent backups?
