v13 Veeam Backup Viewer

Post by redhorse »

Hello,

we have updates to v13 and my colleagues with "Veeam Backup Viewer" role can't see the tape infrastructure anymore. This was possible in v12, is this expected? Is there any workaround?

We have to check which tapes are expired and which tapes have to be removed from the tape library, therefor we don't need any further permission than read only.

Thanks!

Hi RH

In v13, all menu nodes that are not related to the assigned role will be hidden.
Since Backup Viewers are typically only concerned with displaying backups only, the Tape menu node is also hidden for users assigned only the Backup Viewer role.

I couldn’t find any option to enable the Tape view other than assigning the user the Veeam Tape Operator role.
However, I’ll bring your use case to the attention to our team.

Best,
