Need more eventlog details

Post by GabesVirtualWorld »

Hi
We're using VMware Log Insight Agent to forward Windows Events from VEEAM to Log Insight. We use this to trigger alerts when backup jobs fail but we'd also love to see which VM backups have failed. Currently the Windows events for a failed job show only one line like this:

2023-11-16T01:00:31.466541Z <server> Veeam_MP - 190 [liagent@6876 eventrecordid="2047354" keywords="Classic" task="0"] Backup job 'jobname' finished with Failed.

We'd like to detect when multiple VMs in a job fail to detect that probably something is wrong with the infrastructure. Preferable per VM a separate Windows event. Is this possible to configure?

I am hopeful more information will be visible in the 12.1 ability for this to log to a syslog server. Have to test it to see what I get.
