Veeam One for SOBR Offload

[stfconsulting]

Morning everyone, can someone point me in the right direction for the best report to audit our available restore points in the S3 Offload?

Hello Stfconsulting,

Currently, there is no such report, but it's planned. Could you please let us know what particular data are you looking for and what is the usage scenario?

Thanks

[stfconsulting]

I guess I need something that is similar to the protected VM backup report that shows our latest and newest restore points. Also would need to show us if the S3 point is not up to date. Would be nice if it showed how much space it is taking up in the S3 storage also.

Thanks for commenting.

Would it work if we just show the detailed Capacity and Archive tiers data in the Backups on repository report?

On a side note, we have a few other ideas on how to improve visibility for SOBR offload and download activities.

My main concern is to make sure we understand that the data at the S3 provider is up to date and not lagging behind. Excited to see what you guys come up with.

I'd like to see the date of the latest offloaded restore point for each VM.

The number of offloaded restore points and storage consumption might be interesting, but confirming we have a restore point offloaded within our desired timeframe is most important.

Hello Derek,

Thanks for the feedback. Noted.

Was anything regarding offloading added to Veeam One v12? I searched the reports but did not find anything. Offload jobs are kind of a blind spot in Veeam One. They are responsible for 90% of our errors in Veeam but there still seems to be not much (nothing?) in Veeam One.

Hello pirx,

Yes, visibility of SOBR offload sessions is supported in the client, Workload Protection History report and Scale-out backup repository data transfer session state alarm.



Please take a look and let us know what you think.

Interesting, if I select a SOBR I don't have the Data Transfer Tab. Is this a feature that depends on VBR v12 or should this work with VBR v11 too? Veeam One is v12 already.

Hello pirx,

VBR should also be upgraded. VBR v11 does not provide offload data to VONE.

Thanks
