Lets say a periodic legacy backup copy job “LEGACY” was configured to copy 3 source jobs: JOB-A, JOB-B, JOB-CDuring the creation of the new-format backup copy job named “NEW”, only source job JOB-A was initially included. On the storage tab, target mapping was used to point to the “LEGACY” job. This triggered a format upgrade for all items inside the LEGACY job, creating a new target named “NEW”.Now I want to edit the “NEW” job to add “JOB-B” as an additonal souce.Do I need to return to the storage-tab of the job and choose target mapping and select “LEGACY” again?What happens if I do?Will it recognise that this chain has already been converted and correctly target “NEW” instead?
Today, I noticed there are two fresh vulnerabilities on the VBR12.1 Manager and console servers. Certain .net core requirements are installed when the product is installed. Unfortunately, The .net isn't patched automatically through Windows updates. CVE-2023-36049--.NET, .NET Framework, and Visual Studio Elevation of Privilege Vulnerabilityhttps://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2023-36049This security advisory is being released by Microsoft to inform users of a vulnerability present in .NET 6.0, .NET 7.0, and .NET 8.0 RC2. Additionally, this alert offers suggestions on how developers should update their apps to fix this vulnerability.When untrusted URIs are sent to System .Net, a vulnerability in .NET allows for the elevation of privilege. It is possible to insert arbitrary commands into backend FTP servers using WebRequest.Create.

Hi Everyone,I need some guidance on deploying a new hardened backup repository as a SOBR extent. Current we have a customer which uses a regular windows repository as extent doing copy to an Azure blob. We need to move all the content (backup chains) from this Windows repository to the hardened one (using imutability). I´m trying to find out the appropriate way to do that. There is only one performance extent (with data locality policy) and we are not able to add the hardened repo because all extents need to have same imutability settings. Cannot evacuate because there is no other extent to evacuate.How can I accomplish this without having to download metadata or resync data with Azure blobs? Our goal here is to only offload old repo content to the hardened repo and set them as extent copying data to Azure, if possible, doing little to no change on Azure tiers/blobs to avoid costs.
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.
The environment described in this architecture builds of the 1000 VMs “Single production datacenter to offsite datacenter” scenario. The local repositories are defined as the Performance Tier of a Scale-out Backup Repository (SOBR). The Capacity Tier is a “public-cloud” Object Store. This reference architecture covers capacity tier copy + move operations. It accounts for the potential concurrency of primary backup and offload operations by detailing additional required resources. Each VM and physical server has an average of 200 GB of used storage space (1000 VMs and 100 servers).
Hello,I have 2 Hyper-V hosts:Host no.1: several VMs, VM replicas from Host no.2 and a VM with Veeam B&R server (v12) Host no.2: several VMs, VM replicas from Host no.1 including a VM replica with Veeam B&R server (v12)The repository for backups and replicas is an additional NAS server.I need to completely reinstall Host 1, so I need to temporarily move everything to Host 2 - including the Veeam B&R server.These are production servers, so the whole operation must be stable and fast. What is the best way to do this?
My story goes back many years ago. At the time I was working abroad for an American real estate company. My manager was a decent person but very much into the whole "I am a manager" thing. He loved playing mind games with the staff by giving them the evil eye when he was not pleased and making elusive comments about imminent cutbacks in staff with a regretful but obvious smirk on this face. He also enjoyed demonstratively taking people into the server room for confidential talks. One day he asked me to come and have a talk in the server room so I knew that something unpleasant was afoot. He explained that the branch office in K. needed to do a server upgrade and he would have gone and performed the task himself but....blah blah. In short there was obviously something wrong with that office and he did not want to go.I had a very early flight and arrived at the branch office before 8 am. Much to my surprise the local boss was already there. He immediately informed me that he was a former
Hey y’all, doing a bit of testing with VB365 v8 and documented my way through getting PostgreSQL setup on a ubuntu 22.04 server for this purpose and it seems to be working very well. Here’s the link if you think it will help you out! https://www.koolaid.info/postgresql-on-ubuntu-2022-4-installation-configuration-for-veeam-purposes/
I’ve seen this multiple times now with VMware. You cancel a task via vCenter or the ESXi UI and it just stays there hanging and nothing further happens. Normally this situation resolves itself after some time, but just last week I had a case where the task never stopped. While the Webclients weren’t really helpful in that case, we were able to cancel this task with the ESXi commandline.Warning: Interupting certain tasks, for example snapshot consolidations or Storage vMotions, can lead to issues or corrupted VMs. So only do this if you don’t have any alternatives and need the task to be canceled. And better have a backup at your hand.SolutionStart the SSH service on the ESXi host where your VM is registered Connect via SSH Query the VM ID: vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms Query all tasks for this VM: vim-cmd vmsvc/get.tasklist “VM ID”Check the Task information: vim-cmd vimsvc/task_info “haTask….” Is the task still state still active? Note: The screenshot is just an example; the task state is s
Let’s walk through the steps to perform a Physical to Virtual machine (P2V) conversion using Veeam Backup and Replication (VBR) to migrate a physical server to a Cluster virtual machine.Install Veeam Agent on the Physical MachineInstall the Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows on the physical server you want to convert. Ensure the agent is properly configured and connected to your Veeam Backup and Replication server.You can also create a Protection Group to install it. We will show you how to convert it from the Veeam Backup and Replication Management Console.Create a Protection Group and add the physical machine to the protection.Ensure you select the Install Backup agent. Create a Temporary Backup JobIn the Veeam console, Select the Protection Group and create a new backup job for the physical machine.Select Server Type and Manage by Backup Server Mode.Assign Job name and Description.Select the entire computer in backup mode.This is just a temporary job. Change the Retention policy to 1
