Veeam Tape Schedule

Post by Killu »

Hi Everybody,
i need help i'm newby. I have configured an incremental Backup on Tape
for backup of 80 VMware VMs. I have configured the jobs to start each
day at 12:00. On Sunday I configured a Full Backup always starting from
12:00.
The conservation is 20 days and I have created 2 different Pools, one for
full backups and one for incremental backup.
On Sunday the Full Backup Job started successfully at 12:00 and ended at
21:00, I just don't understand why I made even a very small Backup
Incremental of only 3 VMs consecutively, using a second Tape ????
You know how to give me an explanation

Thx

Simone :wink:

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

I'm not 100% sure about understanding the situation / question, but I try to answer... backups are created based on a schedule. So my guess is, that new backups appeared that matched a tape schedule.

What kind of tape job are you using? Backup-to-tape or file-to-tape?

what kind of number is this? Veeam support case numbers today look like 05..... today.

Best regards,
Hannes

Thank you very much for the welcome and for the reply,
I found that the problem was due to 3 3 Vm jobs ending too late and crossing with tape backup jobs

I am backing up to disks and I have split the VMs on two different physical servers, I have created 1 job for each VM. Then as Disaster Recovery I created 1 single job which includes all vm and writes on 6 incremental tape and on Sunday a Syntethic Full
sorry but I'm newbie and maybe that's not the answer you wanted.

It's the number I used to write to support, it probably wasn't the exact code.

Thank you very much
