Feature Request: Backup/Replica Job Names in Inventory View

Post by nick-lev »

I'd like to submit a feature request to have Veeam Backup & Replication include in the Inventory View, the ability to add/remove additional columns that include what backup jobs and replica jobs a machine belongs to.

I'd also like to include the ability on any screen that lists out items in a table to export to .CSV and .XLSX - that would be excellent for manual data collection/inventory for reports.

We're almost through our migration of hundreds of machines from Cohesity to Veeam B&R and it would really be useful to have the ability to quickly see what machines belong to what jobs, as well as to pull reports from Veeam into a CSV from these table views.

Hello Nick

Welcome to the forum and the request.

May I ask, would Veeam One be a workable alternative? Veeam One provides such a report.
This report will give you a list of all protected VMs and their backup, replication and backup copy job. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/one/r ... ml?ver=120

Besides the protected VM report, Veeam One has many other reports you can use to document your environment.

You'd have to jump into Veeam ONE to do so, and this functionality is commonly found in other backup products - it would be nice since you're adding/removing VMs from the VBR console and not the Veeam ONE console.

Hi Nick

Of course, we can consider it. Just no promises today.
Using Veeam One is the solution which works today. Or PowerShell.
