Good afternoon, all!
I've found what looks to me to be a bug in Veeam 6.5.
Our Veeam proxy servers are all virtual machines; one on each node that we process replications for. On two of these, I added a second disk to take backups of larger virtual machines for seeding. Now, all our current machines are replicating, and I have changed the replication jobs to not show seeding.
I want to delete the added disks and reclaim the disk space from the seeding backups. However, when I navigate to the backup repository page in the manager, right-click the repository and select "Remove" the manager says the repository "cannot be deleted because it is used by the following jobs:" and lists the replications that used that space for seeds.
I can go ahead and delete the disk in vSphere, but can't clean up the Veeam repositories. I have been able to delete the disk and re-assign a very small disk to make the manager happy, but I still can't remove the repository.
Any help on how to proceed would be appreciated.
Thanks to all!
Gregg

Re: Can'd delete backup repository
Hello Gregg,
Thank you!
Can you please try to enable seeding again, then navigate to seeding step of the replication job wizard and clear all checkboxes there? After that, select not to show seeding option and try to remove the backup repository again. Should do the trick!gregg_hughes wrote: and I have changed the replication jobs to not show seeding.
