Adding Amazon S3 Repository

Post by Baptiste »

[EDIT by moderator] the setup in this tread is unsupported

Hello Everybody,

i have successfully deploy a repository on Amazon S3 as below :

Amazon file Gateway to access S3 storage
Linux VBR repository to mount NFS point

It works but Veeam doesn't know how much storage is left on the repository (well, infinity... ?) and every job pointing on this repository end up with a warning :
Backup location [/VBR-Repo/backups] is getting low on free disk space (0,0 B free of 0,0 B).

Is there a way to disable warning on this special repository (maybe with a registry key ?)

Thanks

Both Gateway and Repository are m4.xlarge with 4vCPU & 16 Go de ram
Dunno about the cost, i believe my customer have specific pricing.
With S3 Storage you can define cycle life policy to move old backup to glacier storage. Public price might be accessible on internet.

Hi Baptiste,

I believe the following should work:

Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication\

CheckFreeSpace
Type: REG_DWORD (0 False, 1 True)
Default value: 1 (enabled)

I do believe you need to restart the services to get this into effect

cheers

Hello Mike,

Thanks for the quick answer but is it possible to specify the repository and not all of them ?
