Veeam SQL backup job not actually backing up

Post by MNCowboy »

Installed Veeam Plug-in for Microsoft SQL (12.2.0.334) on both servers in HA cluster. I create a backup job for a database via the "Veeam Backup Database" UI. When I "Run" it in the last step, it works fine. I can see it running on the VBR Console. However, when I "Save as a SQL Agent job" and run it from SSMS, it executes on SSMS, but I do not see it run on VBR, no error, nothing in event log. The entry in Home/Jobs/Applications is for the previous run. Looking at files, there aren't any new backup files. I am successfully running SQL backup jobs on another cluster, so I feel I am doing it correctly. Good backups are running on Win Server 2022 DC, SQL Server 16.0.11352. Problem child is on Win Server 2016 DC, SQL Server (13.0.7050.2). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Deniece,

Did you check whether the job is running on the active cluster node? If so, please contact our support team and share the support case ID here so that we can keep an eye on it.

Thanks!

Thanks PetrM, yes, from the primary in the HA and I also checked the Failover Cluster Manager, the same server is the host and role is on this server also. Just for good measure, I started SSMS from the server itself, ran the job and still a no-go. I will contact support. Thanks again.
