You need to create some type of Windows script, either Powershell or batch or whatever, that calls some type of ssh client (probably putty) which connects to the Linux VM to run the script. I previously had an example, but calling putty is something like:

putty.exe -ssh <user>@<linux_ip> -pw <password> -m C:\scripts\linux_script

You're wrapper shell script can get the IP address passed from the Surebackup test and is documented in Veeam KB1312. When I have a little more time I'll try to put up a working example if you don't work it out by then but it may be a few days as I don't have much time right now.

so thanks
my script is ready and i put that in prevoius post when create job i know there is a part for use script that is contain 3 field:
1-Name
2- path
3-Argumants

ok in name field i put for example = test

in path i select that script written and is on veeam backup server in this path : c:\script\sure.sh

now is that your means in argument field had to write this :
putty.exe -ssh <user>@<linux_ip> -pw <password> -m C:\scripts\linux_script

just change user with root user and linux ip and change <password> with root password ?

also i read that KB but that is not complete and clear also is for windows

i am waiting for your help

Assume that you have two script files located on VBR: wrapper.bat and sure.sh.

In the "Path" field you should specify path to the wrapper.bat.
In the "Arguments" field specify %vm_ip%
%wrapper.bat should contain something like this:

Code: Select all

\path\to\putty.exe -ssh %vm_ip% -l user -pw password -m \path\to\sure.sh

Replace user and password with whatever will allow connection to that particular VM.

[baber]

so thanks
1-but i just write one script with name sure.sh i don't have wrapper.bat script
2- what is your means from vmip? my ip adress of vm that i have get backup that is 10.10.50.67

BR

[baber]

about question2 :
is that your means do i have to use from 10.10.50.67 instead of %vm_ip% ?
do i have to put ip address between %% or don't need use from %% ?

BR

[baber]

1- my vm's ip that get backup from that is 10.10.50.67
2- create a bat file in windows and this is contain in bat file :

"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup\Putty"\putty.exe -ssh root@10.10.50.67 -pw password -m C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\123\sure.sh

3- my production network connection is : 10.10.50.70 - 255.255.255.224 Gw= 10.10.50.65
now i don't know what do i have to write in argument filed

can anyone help me?

[tdewin]

%vm_ip% is an automatic parameter that will be filled in when you put it in the argument field in backup & replication and will be the external address of the VM that is in the lab environment

[baber]

is that your means in argument field just write %vm_ip% or have to write ip address ?????

BR

[tdewin]

it's a dynamic parameter that will be filled in automatically so you write %vm_ip%

[baber]

it won't correctly
my 1.bat script is :

"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup\Putty"\putty.exe -ssh root@172.20.68.74 -pw password -m C:\Script\sure.sh

and my sure.sh is :

#!/bin/bash
mkdir -p /tmp/surerplicaaaaaasssssaaaaaaa

and in argument field write : %vm_ip%

but it don't succeed and more than 20min that show in progress in script part checking heartbeat and ping success what is my problem ?

can anyone help me plz?

BR

[tdewin]

In veeam you pass the parameter %vm_ip% to your bat script

In your bat script, you can use that parameter as %1 I believe (http://www.robvanderwoude.com/parameters.php) because it is passed as the first argument. So you should be able to do something like

Code: Select all

"C:\path\to\putty\putty.exe" -ssh root@%1

[baber]

is that necessary use %vm_ip% in argument field ? and the other question is why that stop in progress more that 30min?

BR

[tdewin]

no, you can just remove the %vm_ip% and put a fixed ip in the batch script. But make sure to put the masked IP and not the production IP, so your script is not connecting to your production server

[baber]

what is my masq ip in below pic ?

just replace the second octet of your production IP with 29. For example, assume that your VMs production IP is 172.20.X.Y, then your masquerade IP will be 172.29.X.Y

Thanks

[baber]

thanks
but you said put the masked IP and not the production IP in bat script file now what ip adress do i have to put in bat file ?

BR

[PTide]

You should put the masquerade IP in the .bat file. If you put production IP, then the script will attempt to connect to the production VM, which is clearly not what you want.

Thanks

ok

i understand your means but now want to know according that pic my msq ip address is : 172.29.C.D

now what ip address do i have to put in .bat file ?
what is my masquerade IP ?

BR

[PTide]

172.29.C.D is a template for IP masquerading. That is, if your production VM has IP 172.20.68.10, then its corresponding masquerade IP would be 172.29.68.10. If some other VM has, for example, IP 172.20.50.12, then the masquerade IP would be 172.29.50.12, and so on. Please check this example.

Thanks

[baber]

thanks
but when i changed my masq ip appear this error : my producion vm ip is : 172.20 68.74 255.255.255.224 172.20.68.65

You should not replace the letters in IP address in the wizard. "C" and "D" represent corresponding octets of your production IP addresses, they will be substituted with proper values automatically depending on the IP. Provided that you have three VMs in production, it will work as follows:

|_VM__| ProductionIP | Masqu.___IP |

|_VM1_| 172.20.68.10 | 172.29.68.10 |
|_VM2_| 172.20.68.11 | 172.29.68.11 |
|_VM3_| 172.20.70.12 | 172.29.70.12 |

Thanks

[baber]

thanks but confused
please see my config :

my virtual lab proxy setting is this

https://pasteboard.co/H5tPGX0.jpg

my isolated config in virtual lab is :

https://pasteboard.co/H5tQMAH.jpg

and my network setting in virtual lab is :

https://pasteboard.co/H5tRnc8.jpg

and this is my script that i put it in surebackup job

and this is my .bat script but another can not success for script and wait in progress what is the problem?

"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup\Putty"\putty.exe -ssh root@172.31.255.224 -pw password -m C:\Script\sure.sh

https://pasteboard.co/H5u4ymP.jpg

but i can not ping 172.31.255.224

and in vcenter just have 2vms:

1-bakaml_da43472f8ff145318f0022919918914c with ip = 172.20.68.74
2- Virtual_Labamlscript with ip = 172.20.68.68

and don't have any vm with ip 172.31.255.224
BR

[baber]

my masq ip now is 172.31.C.D
and when i run job this ip has ping and could ssh to that 172.31.68.74 but my problem is script not run via sure replica job
i am sure .bat file is correct because when i run 1.bat file it will connect to 172.31.68.74 and run sure.sh script

do i have to just add script in sure backup job or also have to use that when create application group ?
