Running Veeam version 9 to backup VMware guests. However, how the veeam software count licence\ cost? By no.of guests backup?

Hi all,
Friend of a friend dumped a laptop on me for repair. We are IT professionals, thats what we do in the evenings right?.

Anyway, any tips
Model Name                     Satellite Radius L40DW-C
Part Number                    PSLZDA-006002
OS - Win10 Home
Drive is SSD  - IDE Device TOSHIBA THNSNJ128GVNU

Machine is running really slowly.  

I have done a chkdsk c: /r and drive is OK.

Windows is up to date.

I have managed to robocopy all his data off it, however Veeam errors almost immediately when i try to backup the entire disk or volume.

The event log shows 1000's of these
Event ID: 153
Disk
The IO operation at logical block address 0x3201cee for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000025) was retried.
Event ID: 154
The IO operation at logical block address 0x6fc4918 for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000025) failed due to a hardware error.

The IO operation at logical block address 0x5834400 for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000025) failed due to a hardware error.

Any tips on how to:
Run full hardware diagnostics on this model?
Same question to test the SSD?


Any other ideas?

Cheers for any tips.

Hi, i'm looking for a way to backup my virtual machines inside an ESXi 6.7 server to another ESXi server.  

I know I can Veeam or convert them over, but I was wanting to have it automaticaly run at night, like just the changed files, or even to a backup file on another server.  I wanted it to go to the same media so I don't end up with multiple of the same thing.

Thanks all.

Hi,
I want to build a backup server, windows 2019, that wont be on the domain and will have Veeam and pickup my VMware infrastructure: do a windows 2019 essential licence on it will do? It is half price and I guess it would.

Hello,

I have a veeam backup server,

We are running Daily, Monthly and Quarterly VEEAM backups of our environment of 15 VMs. I just learned from our MSP that all of the backups are incremental. Does this matter? I was under the assumption that the Daily backup was incremental, then on the seventh day the backup was a full backup. Perhaps that wouldn't make sense as a full backup may run for several days which would impact the daily incremental. Could someone shed some light?

Azure Site Recovery / Zerto or Veeam?

Hello

Im investigating and testing replication of a test VM we have in azure and failing miserably.  Current production config:

• Site to Site VPN from our on premise site(s) connected into UK South Azure region.  
• 10.0.0.0/16 address space.
• All production resources (Domain controllers only so far) located here.
• A test SQL server VM stored here 10.0.0.11 and being replicated by ASR to UK West region.
• dedicated ASR vnet used at the UKWest site.
• A dedicated failover vnet also used for the failover replica.

I clearly must be missing something.  I have yet to failover, but understand that the replica VM can have the same IP address as before but its recommended that it doesn't (depending on the address space and subnet?

Also am i right in saying we must either add vnet peering between UK South and UK West?  A VPN connected to UK West should UK South go offline or just allow external WAN IP access?

There doesn't seem to be much simple standard information for ASR.  I was hoping this would be easy and simple.  Which leads me onto Zerto and Veeam (currently using), is anyone using this in an azure to azure setup?  If so any pointers over ASR?

Thanks

Hi All,

We currently have 2 * server 2008 domain controller. Both are backed up up nightly via Veeam. If we had a problem with one DC or indeed AD, what is the best practice to roll back to a previous working state. If for example one DC has a problem can I roll this one back and then AD etc will sync any changes made / discrepancies between the old data on the restored DC and any changes made during this time on the running DC. Is this a terrible idea?

Thankyou,
Paul

I'm setting up a veeam server, I have a DL380 Gen10 with 2x 10GB Nics. when setting up the networking side, do I configure a 1gb management  nic with a static IP and set the 2 x 10GB Nics to dhcp? what's the best way to configure.

thanks

HI all (Andrew), I was looking for a way to migrate a server from one ESXi server to another incrementally, I think.  

So I have a server that is like 2 T on a VMware server, I want to image it over, then be able to migrate it to another VMWare server, then be able to just migrate the changes over.  

Like if it's going to take a long time I can do it, then when we have a small window get people off the server, then zap over the changed files, shut off the old server boot up the new one and done.

I was trying to figure it out in Veeam, but got stuck.

Thanks all.

We currently use Veeam and Veeam Copy Jobs to an Exagrid de-duplicating appliance.  Exagrid automatically sync's our data center backups to our remote office.  To supplement that, and to protect against a ransomware attack, we want cloud air-gapped backups.  We presently use Veeam copy jobs to iLand for that purpose but it's not going well.

We are about to demo CommVault but I figured before doing so, maybe I should take a step back and ask for thoughts on:

CommVault vs. Zert0

The ONLY thing I like about Veeam copy jobs to a cloud provider is the provider's "insider protection" which basically is a cloud based "recycle bin" which even a malicious admin can't touch.

We don't enjoy the overly complex nature of hundreds of  Veeam backup jobs and copy jobs.  It's a nightmare to monitor and maintain.

CommVault sounds much simpler.

I don't know anything about Zert0 other than it offers granular restores to the minute which could be super handy during a ransomware attack (assuming they don't successfully attack our backups).

I suppose the air-gapped-ness depends on the destination provider for both CommVault and Zert0.

Do these solutions typically rely on things like Amazon's Object Lock / Compliance Mode / WORM (write-once-read-many)?

A big requirement is MFA in order to delete backup containers; my nightmare scenario is my laptop getting hijacked and/or my admin credentials getting compromised and ransomware hacker attacking my cloud backups too !!!
