Hello,
I just found this script https://github.com/mikewizzz/veeam-powe ... SureBackup but I did not try it out... what do customers think about it?

Best regards
Hannes

Hello Hannes,

it looks like the script still requires a few adjustments to work properly.
At the moment, the report generation causes the entire script to fail, so I had to comment out that whole section.
In addition, the Jump VM also seems to be rather unstable.

More generally, it’s quite disappointing that Veeam still does not support SureBackup for AHV and is unable to provide any kind of release timeline. The topic has now been open for almost three years. What makes this even more frustrating is the fact that employees have to resort to rebuilding SureBackup functionality via community scripts as a workaround.
At this point, it might be time to seriously evaluate alternative solutions from other vendors.

+1 for this feature.
I can only agree it's a little frustrating to wait so much time for this feature to be implemented on other hypervisors.
AHV is available with VBR since some years but miss lot's of feature of Veeam suite (backup and replication + one + recovery orchestrator).
