• ReSTOR vCenter Veeam Backup 5

  Veeam backup 6.0 allows us to save all our virtual machines.

  We use VMware ESXi 5.0

  Our vCenter 5.0, I installed on a virtual machine.

  The vCenter server is backed up every night of Veeam Backup.

  My question is:

  If our vCenter server crash, is it then possible to restore I have the backup that was night done previus?

  We whant to do a restore complete the vcenter our Backup Server.

  I don't know how our ESXi servers will react when see her sudden an older vCenter, we restored backup.

  Hello

  We use Veeam B & R v6 for the last 3 years.

  Lets say you have a failure of your vCenter server and there is no quick way, you can solve the problem.

  1. turn off the vCenter server crashed.

  2. go to the B & R Veeam

  3. click on restore, then select a restore point for that perticular Server

  4. replace one of the ESX hosts.

  Now in the case where this happens Veeam can see vCenter and if he can't have not all hosts to restore. Then you just 'Add Host' and add the ESXi box, that you want to restore.

  Now you can move on to step 3.

  Wait for restore to finish, and you're done.

  Some settings that you can select are "lit VM after restoration" "connect Newtorking.

• Veeam Backup & Replication with VMWare

  Hello everyone,

  I have a question about Veeam Backup and VmWare:

  Fact the license "vStorage API" (contained in the "essential package") is necessary to use Veeam Backup & Replication?

  If 'Yes', I don't know why...?

  We have in the ESX servers of my company 2 with 2 VM on each of them, with version 4.1.

  We will buy VeeamBackup but I wonder if we should also buy essential Kit...?

  Thanks to all the people who will give me some information about this,

  And sorry for the possible mistakes (I am french)

• VMware VDR or VEEAM backup choice for backups and restorations of VM

  Hello

  Can someone suggest the best solutions to choose from-VDR or Veeam Backup.

  I know there are limitations with VDR as appropriate in the middle of small infrastructure...

  My infrastructure is 1 VC, 4 guests. 50-60 VM in a cluster. and I usually tape backups.

  Thanks in advance.

  You may ask why I need that? for example, if I have 3 disks for a virtual machine - C: D: E:, c: what is 20 GB contains windows OS and other two are huge disks and data (files I need) are saved by my TSM software. I would then backup that only the OS disk and the remaining disc are copied by TSM. I don't want to copy complete D: E:...

  It depends on your backup strategy.

  In my humble OPINION, I prefer to have a backup of the complete VM image... just to have a real "disaster recovery system. Of course only the system drive may suffice, but you need to document what other drives were present.

  And don't forget that VDRS and Veeam (and another backup product) can operate in "extra" mode, so that new data is copied, not whole disk (except the first, of course).

• Veeam Backup and the Mode of free features

  People,

  I started a support with Veeam call after the installation of their new backup and replication 4.1.1 after getting an error "free ESXi is not supported" after some troubleshooting tech me determine what level of license Info Service is listed, ESXFull, or ESXBasic. After determining that it is ESBasic they advise that we are 'free' feature mode and call the VMWare licenses.

  I'm missing somethgin here, I thougth all ESXi were free, a matter that deals with this and how do I get this to ESXFull?

  Thank you

  Free ESXi is free. It can be licensed for use with the rest of the vSphere product suite. In free mode, there are several things that are not available, including the storage API. Veeam backup uses the storage API, which means that you must have a licensed version of ESXi. The simplest version of a bundle under license is http://www.vmware.com/vmwarestore/buyvsphere-small-business.html

• Veeam backup or vmware consolidated backup?

  What is the best?

  Thank you

  RJ

  We will all live a virtual life...

  Hello

  Certainly VCB is not as rich in features as Veeam but you can compare the two, they take data outside the ESX host and place it on a backup server. You should necessarily not a script to do this with VCB, but it will certainly help! For environments really small hand vcbMounter orders will pass data of the ESX host to your backup host. Then you will need a (even when using Veeam) mechanism to move the backup to a kind of Ribbon, blu - ray or a another backup device.

  Granted in some cases Veeam will also make use of the VCB to make its backups and Veeam combined with VCB is a pretty good combination.

• Failure of the 0-1% using VCB and Veeam backup

  I just installed VCB on my vCenter server.

  I have my production Virtual Infrastructure running on my Compellent SAN.  I have an EMC SAN mapped on my server vcenter/veeam/vcb as a drive to safeguard my VMs.  When I try to run a backup with VCB mode SAN work fails almost immediately by the following:

  Completing the current object VCB backup process

(Tip: If you use vcbMounter, you can use the '-m ndb' option to move to disk-based network access if that's what you want.) If you were trying to access at the file level, stop the vmount Service by typing "net stop vmount2" in a command prompt to force vmount to re-scan for the SAN LUNS and try the command again. An error has occurred, cleaning...

  It seems that the VMFS volumes are not presented to the VCB proxy... host you give access proxy to the appropriate LUNS?

• How warns 'space' error, make a backup with veeam?

  Hello everyone.

  I have a 300 GB virtual machine in a shop 305 GB data, so there are only 5 GB free. I use as backup Veeam software. Its working directory is another store of data with 300 + GB free.

  I thought that have 5 GB of free space in the data of the VM store was enough for configuration files and such things, but maybe I was mistaken. The problem happened when I found the following error last Monday:

  http://Msg.hbacommon.outOfSpace There is no more space for disk virtual myvm - 000001.vmdk.  You

  Take a look at the logs, it seems that Veeam just a snapshot, but in the same data store the virtual machine, not in the working directory of the virtual machine condfigured, where there is more than enough free space.

  Why this snapshot was created in the virtual machine datastored when its working directory is set to be in the other data store?

  How can we prevent this happening?

  Thanks in advance,

  Welcome to the community,

  If you can confirm that the snapshot is created in the location workingdir when you take a snapshot manually, you must open a call with Veeam. Otherwise, check the settings (http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1002929) and make sure that the virtual machine is charged to the inventory after changing the vmx file.

• customer of Hyper-v is not visible in the windows backup utility

  Hello

  We use windows server and veeam backup to back up hyper-v customers. last week one of the server is missing from the backup window and he said "06/08/2016 21:42:20: task impossible error: document Writer does not contain information about the virtual machine with the ID 'aef0610a-5f93-449f-a61b-f3f15f944b20'. '.

  However, it seems that writer metadata document does not contain virtual machine ID.

  one has previous experience with this or nobody knows how to fix it would be great.

• Backup & Recovery in virtual environment

  Hello

  I need help to establish a good Backup & Recovery Strategy for VM-Ware with Oracle databases.

  Currently we use veeam backup the entire Virtual Machine during the night maintannce-window. On the virtual machine, we use RMAN to back up the databases, archivelogs fall under the machine.

  My problem:

  -If the virtual machine failure during the day, for example 16:00, cause of lost storage / instant failure that blocks the machine - I lose changes all day.

  So, where is the best place to save the logs to check-in during the day and how do I recover after an accident mentioned above? First step would be to recover the virtual machine with veeam, but subsequently? The database do not know what archivelogs were written, cause it contained last night?

  Thanks for your help.

  PS, we got the problem of the snapshot-crash on another machine, so it's really a thing that can happen.

  User106somethingorother,

  If you want to be able to recover in the case of the virtual machine / virtual disks are gone, you must ensure that your backups and archiving logs copied somewhere else.

  The users guide backup and restore (available at http://docs.oracle.com) would be the place to go to find out how to recover the database in many different scenarios, including one where you have lost direct control files and RMAN would therefore know about archiving logs is available.

  Kind regards

• two different backup based CBT products can save the same vm without affecting the other?

  POS and Veeam use CBT for backups after the full initial.

  What will happen if they save both the same virtual machine?

  I checked on this several years ago and the information available at the time seem to indicate that it works very well (the details seem to have fled my organic storage)

  right now I use veeam backup replication and vsphere production Dr. (partly because I had hoped to go back to SRM).

  Several years ago I used WTP (when it was new) and it worked perfectly to recover from a failed san (luckily I had just updated to the first version of the direct recovery so it was easy and very fast).

  stop using POS due to problems of maintenance cycle in progress where he had run more and more long and never ended.  redeployed several times and even had not involved with support no resolution therefore had to move away from the product.

  now, I would like to back (especially since it is included with the enterprise license), but needed if ensure that it does not affect backups of production using the CBT.  I can do some testing of course, but thought ask and see if anyone has any information to share.

  Thank you

  From a technical point of view it should not be problems, unless the application of different run their backups at the same time.

  CBT marks the changed blocks using a ChangeID which is incremented whenever someone creates a snapshot. Applications determine the blocks changed since the most recent backup by requesting a list of blocks with a ChangeID higher than that of their last backup/replication.

• Virtualization backup infrastructure

  Hello

  I'd like to migrate my version 5.5 virtualization infrastructure (ESXi and vCenter) to version 6.0 (ESXi and vCenter). My machines are on a SAN.

  Except that before I'd like to make a backup of my existing infrastructure. is this where this is possible? If Yes, what is the best practices?

  Thank you

  the most important is the sql of the vcenter. close all services and sql backup through the United Nations.

  then you can also make a backup of the vcenter.

  If you like VDP vmware or veeam backup solution, you can just a backup of all the virtual machines...

  the esx server you do not need to make a backup. in of they are installed ten minutes

  You have to do the upgrade to vcenter in advance... and since the esx server...

  If you want you can since und upgrade of the hardware version of virtual machines with the vmware tools...
