Debian Trixie - CVbrOibScope: Unable to update OIB

[zimeon]

Found a possible but with Veeam B&R 12 (12.3.2.4165) and Debian 13 - Trixie that was working before with agent version (6.3.2.1207). I have the community edition, so no official support. Couldn't find any matching KB about this.
Postgresql server for Veeam B&R is version 16.9 (I know its not supported, perhaps it's not the root cause as it used to work). I've tried to create a new Full backup but to no avail. The agent was able to successfully backup the machine last month 16.9.2025, but I didn't catch it until now.

Hi Mike,

Please provide a support case ID as requested when you create a new topic about a technical issue. As mentioned in the support policy:

Free license customers have support via web or email only on a best effort basis only.

We cannot troubleshoot technical issues effectively over the forum posts. All posts about technical issues without case ID will be eventually deleted by the forum moderator. You can also upload debug logs for our support as per the instruction of this KB.

Thanks!

Opened a case now (Case #07861018). Didn't expect to be able to do that with community edition.

Managed to figure this out. It was due to EFI boot manager having invalid data in it, and re-creating it solved the issue.

The problematic part was " File(.)" which shouldn't be there. To solve the issue, I first deleted the boot entry with "sudo efibootmgr -b 0001 -B", and then recreated it with sudo efibootmgr -c -d /dev/nvme0n1p1 -p 1 -L "debian" -l '\EFI\debian\shimx64.efi'. End result looking like this;

After that, a quick reboot and backups worked again.
