EntraID backup configuration handling HttpClient.Timeout

Post by Henrik.Grevelund »

Hi,

Running the backup og EntraID doesn't allow much configuration options.

I just had support case(#07816604) becuase we got HttpClient.Timeout warnings. This was only a warning, but it failed backing up some of the content.

The support team couldn't provide an option to adjust this value, but insctructed me to adjust the appsettings.json file.
I was a bit suprised about this. The reason for timeout was as usual MS API's being unstable.

What i don't understand about this, is why isn't possible to adjust the timeout on this, when the VBO experience should have proven the need for more resilience using MS API's ?

Why isn't the parallelism not adjustable from the GUI ?
I was instructed to change the parallelism in the support case, but i suspect that this file, would easily be overwritten by an update.

Why is there Log settings in this settings file, why doesn't it use the log settings for the VBR server ?


C:\Program Files (x86)\Veeam\Backup Transport\x64\plugins\EntraId\appsettings.json
Please add or modify the following content in the file:

Code: Select all

{
  "WorkerLoad": {
    "MaxParallelJobsPerWorker": 50
  },
  "VeeamLog": {
    "LogFilesNumber": 50,
    "ArchivesLimit": 100,
    "SeverityThreshold": 5
  },
  "GraphApiClient": {
    "MaxRequestRetries": 10
  }
}
Have nice day,
Henrik

Hi Henrik,

Parallelism is not adjustable from the GUI because it is not a setting that most of our customers need to modify frequently. I agree that making this option available in the GUI sounds reasonable, but let’s continue to track similar requests. So far, we do not have enough demand to begin implementation, but your feature request has been noted.

The parameter LogFilesNumber allows us to control the number of Entra ID logs; it has nothing to do with VBR log backup settings.

The file appsettings.json will not be deleted or overwritten after a VBR update.

Thanks!
