Yesterday I decided to walk through and record for the first time the upgrade process from the previous version of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 v4 to v5 to take advantage of all the good stuff in v5 around Microsoft Teams and some proxy enhancements, you can catch that demo here below and also the GA blog post that also went live on the day of GA here. One of the areas that I stumbled upon was having to enable something during the process to take advantage of the new team’s functionality above so wanted to document that also. Firstly, head on over toRead More →

In a year where the world has been reliant on remote working and collaboration tools like Microsoft Office 365, the emphasis has also grown in this space on how we protect or if we protect that data and how, our roadmap for Veeam Backup for Office 365 was always planned to have a better way to protect Microsoft Teams before the surge of many companies and users switching to remote working during 2020. As well as making things much faster when it comes to backing up the data but more importantly the granular recovery and speed of that recovery back into your Office 365 environment.Read More →

The first part of this series was aimed at getting a Veeam Backup & Replication Azure VM up and running from the Azure Marketplace using Azure PowerShell. A really quick and easy way to spin the system up. The use case we are talking about is the ability to recover your backups from maybe on premises up into Microsoft Azure. I was asked “what about AWS?” and yes of course if you are using the capacity tier option within Veeam Backup & Replication on premises and you are using the copy mode function to land a copy of your backups on AWS S3 or IBMRead More →

For those that saw this post and the video demo that walks through the manual steps to get your instance of Veeam Backup & Replication running in Microsoft Azure. I decided although that was still quick to deploy it can always be quicker. Then following on from this post we will then look at the automation of the Veeam configuration as well as the direct restore functionality from in this instance Microsoft Azure Blob Storage into Azure VMs. Installing Azure PowerShell In order for us to start this automated deployment we need to install locally on our machine the Azure PowerShell module.

To follow on from the last post around being able to take an application consistent snapshot without the requirement of taking a VMware snapshot which can be found here. The premise of this post is to highlight another cool feature that also came in Veeam Backup & Replication v10 but this time focused on Microsoft SQL and Oracle logfile backups. In previous versions we could take application consistent snapshots and backups with the requirement of taking a VMware snapshot but from a storage snapshot perspective we were able to truncate the database logs after a successful snapshot or we can choose not to truncate theRead More →

Veeam Backup & Replication – VMware Snapshot-less recovery points

Do you have High IO workloads that you cannot afford to have a VMware snapshot take place? This was a nice feature that was sneaked into V10 without many people realising. A common challenge with High IO workloads with VMware snapshots is that it would or could kill performance of likely this mission critical system when a VMware snapshot takes place, which either means you take that risk and manage to get a backup to happen during a relevant window, you leverage crash consistent storage snapshots which also do not require a VMware snapshot or GASP! You just do not do anything and hope thatRead More →

What if I told you, you could take any Veeam image based backup and convert / restore that to an Azure virtual machine without the requirement of any additional storage or file system within Azure other than the disks and resources required to run that virtual machine or virtual machines. And what if I told you, this has been around for years with Veeam Backup & Replication. Veeam have had this capability for a while now since 2016 in fact. Primary use cases that we have seen have been, Test and development When you have the public cloud at your fingertips why not take advantageRead More →

We seem to be heading fast toward VeeamON 2019, this year our conference heads to Miami and none other than the famous Fontainebleau Miami Beach luxury hotel and resort.

But the fun actually starts on the Saturday for the die-hard techies heading out to Miami they will be starting their VMCE course that runs from Saturday to Monday beforeRead More →

Veeam Availability for Nutanix AHV – Extended Backup Retention

The portability and flexibility of the Veeam Backup file (.vbk) that is created with the Veeam Agents for Windows and Linux as well as the VMware and Hyper-V backups is also the same format that we see with the Veeam Availability for Nutanix AHV. This allows us to extend your availability options when we look at where we can store copies of our data offsite. The 3-2-1 rule is a methodology that Veeam has been advocating for many years now, 3 copies of your data on 2 different media types and 1 of those being offsite. This protects your business against many different failure scenarios.Read More →
