Virtual installation?

Post by cicero »

Hi there,

a simple question, but i hardly found anything about:

- is it possible to install Veeam Backup in a virtual W2k3 machine
on a ESX and then do the backup, even the Veeam Guest itself
where vbk-files are stored of course on a remote share...

- an will it be possible, in a desaster recovery,
to restore simply from an .vbk-File.
(of course i've found the import-function, but
have ever been littly bit skeptical ;-)

Want to avoid another physical Windowsserver in
a fully virtualized environment.

Thank in advance,
David

David,

Yes, we have some customers who are running Veeam Backup inside VM.

You need Veeam Backup to restore anything from VBK (yes, you do "Import Backup" first, and then you restore). Veeam Backup takes minutes to install, and license is not checked during restore operations, so you can restore your VBK at any time.

Thanks!

Hello David,

To be able to install and run VMware Player inside VM, you need to do the following. Please note that this workaround requires that VMware Tools are disabled, meaning that some VMware management tools will not be able to work with such VM correctly. So, this workaround is only good for actual restores – as soon as you are done with restore, you should roll it back. You can have 2 VMX files, and register one or another as necessary.

Add these lines to the .VMX file of your Veeam Backup VM:

Code: Select all

isolation.tools.getPtrLocation.disable = "TRUE"
isolation.tools.setPtrLocation.disable = "TRUE"
isolation.tools.setVersion.disable = "TRUE"
isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_directexec = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_chksimd = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_ntreloc = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_selfmod = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_reloc = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_btinout = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_btmemspace = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_btpriv = "TRUE"
monitor_control.disable_btseg = "TRUE"

Also, change tools.upgrade.policy = "useGlobal" to

Code: Select all

tools.upgrade.policy = "manual"
That should do the trick. Please note that this workaround is not officially supported though.

took me 30 Minutes installing the player without the tools *g*
so there are reasons why veeam is recommended outside a vm :lol:

Thanks for the workaround!

Our Veeam is running on a VM.

We need to VMplayer so that it could restore File level for our linux system.

Gostev,

This VMX file is the VM vmx file where the VM is installed ? I am a little confuse.

When I installed VMplayer in the VM where Veeam 3.1 reside it gives me the error saying

"Sorry this product cannot be installed inside a virtual machine"

Gostev,

I already get the VMplayer installed by using the following link http://communities.vmware.com/thread/61041

However I get the message now "You may not power on a Virtual Machine in a virtual machine"

Any further help to get us up and enable us to restore our Linux VM files.

I have already edit the VMX file with the above parameter. Then I restarted the Veeam Backuup VM.

It still does not work until I did http://communities.vmware.com/thread/61041

The I started the File Level Restore Wizard. It can startup, however when I choose the Linux VM backup to restore
error message "You may not power on a Virtual Machine in a virtual machine"

Thanks

Steven, please verify carefully that you did not miss any settings, this workaround is reported to work for 100% of customers who were requesting it - without requiring to perform actions from the above-mentioned VMware Communities thread. If you apply modifications correctly, you will be able to install VMware Player without having to modify its MSI package. If you are unable to install without MSI mod, it means you likely did not apply the VMX file mod correctly. What the mod does is it makes it impossible for any application (including setup and VMware PLayer itself) to detect that they are running inside VM.

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide official technical support for this workaround, because it involves modifying behavior of 3rd party products (VMware), which we do not have source code code and so unable to debug.

If you cannot make this working, I suggest re-installing Veeam Backup on physical computer instead. Please note that we do not officially support using Linux FLR module in a VM, so even with this workaround working, you will be using it at your own risk.

Gostev,

I have verify all the steps. In fact I am able to installed the VMplayer now.

The method you mention is for installing the VMplayer with the parameter.

I mention for the 4th time here again is that, when I started the File Level Restore Wizard, it can startup. Previously it can startup.
However when I choose the Linux VM backup to restore error message "You may not power on a Virtual Machine in a virtual machine"

You don't tell your customer to purchase another hardware plus windows license just for this dummy backup purpose only.
This is not acceptable solution and answer to your customer.

What Veeam required is to assist customer to resolve it. Would appreciate you could escalate this issue further.

Steven, we do plan to change Linux FLR implementation in the way so it will not require using VMware Player in future versions, but unfortunately right now it does require VMware Player and this is stated in the System Requirements for the product. And VMware Player cannot run in VM (not our restriction). So, we provide this workaround for the testing/evaluation purposes only, and as explained on the previous page, it is NOT officially supported.

Most likely the workaround does not work for you because your VMware ESX or VMware Player version does not support this "hack". Again, unfortunately we are not in position to troubelshoot or support this modification, because we do not own the VMware ESX / Player source code and are unable to troubleshoot their behavior with these VMX file modifications in place.

As a workaround, I suggest that you install Veeam Backup on your physical desktop/laptop, perform "Import Backup" operation to connect to the existing backup file (it will NOT be "pulled down" during this operation, it stays remote - but will appear in the Veeam Backup user interface), and perform the Linux file level recoveries this way. This workaround will not require neither extra physical server, nor extra Windows license.

Gostev,

Thanks very much for explaination. This is a better clearer picture. My management will greatly appreciate such answers.

When do you see that we could get the Linux FLR without VMware Player? Q3 or Q4 2009 ?

Thanks

Gostev,

This is not working for us for far.

If we installed the Veeam Backup on our laptop or PC, when the installation ask to where to installed the Veeam Database, could we choose the existing one ? Will it overwrite the existing database already available ?

Thanks

Steven,

Re: no VMware Player requirement. VMware has just released the API/capabilities that would allow us to drop VMware Player requirements, and we are looking at this. Depending on the results of our research, we will be able to estimate some timelines and then we will decide which version we will add this capability to.

Re: installing Veeam Backup on laptop. No, please do not select the existing database, as only one Veeam Backup installation can work with the same database at one time. I would suggest to simply setup the Veeam Backup with local SQL Express (default option).

Thanks!

Steven, I have also discussed this with support - if you'd like, please contact our support to setup webex with our support specialist who have tested this workaround initially. Just to double check that you've done everything right, and that the VMX modification is applied correctly. Unfortunately there is little we could do beyond that - but at least we will know for sure that the reason is specific ESX version and not some mistake.

I just re-read all your messages and there is one comment I am specifically worried about, where you said "I have stop all the VMtools". May be it worth re-enabling the tools, and applying the workaround without touching VMware Tools. Despite VMware Tools get disabled by this modification, may be they still play some role. This is the only thing that catched my eye.

Then may be this is what prevents virtual appliance from running? You were able to install VMware Player when Tools where disabled. Now, with Tools enabled, VMware Player probably detects the presence of running Tools and realizes it is installed on VM (just guessing)? Could you try to roll back all changes you made, and then perform the modification procedure from scratch, without touching VMware Tools at any point (either before or after applying modification).

Do you mean NOT to disabled the VMTools ? As you mention in your parameter to stop all vmware stuff before installing the VMplayer, does this apply?

Steven, no - you only need to apply VMX file modifications, without touching VMware Tools at any point. The VMX mod itself WILL affect VMware Tools and render them not working "correctly", but you should not touch them during this process.

I've re-read my instructions above, and I do see my remark about VMware Tools that got you confused. :(
What I really tried to say, is that this workaround is dangerous because it will "brake" VMware Tools, which in turn may affect many other VM management tools when dealing with the Veeam Backup VM. I did not mean VMware Tools must be disabled manually.
