Feature Request: Veeam Agent application aware backup should return Warning when databases are being excluded

Post by bnorton » 1 person likes this post

RE: Case #04292655

Server Edition of Veeam Agent, Application Aware backup, is returning status Success when many databases are being excluded because they are not healthy. The statistics log shows the database exclusion, but the status of the job returns with success. The only way to find that the databases are not being backed up is to review the statistics for every job. (Or try to restore and find your database is not there!)

Here is an example from the statistics log:
SQL AlwaysOn database IRSPSQL01\SP_Content_maxlife will be excluded because it is not healthy

I was told I would have to ask for a Feature Request.

I would like to request that if the statistics log has warnings about the backup that the job status should report Warning rather than Success.

Hello, +1 for this feature request.

Instance job statistic still finished with status Success while this logs is present "SQL AlwaysOn database <dbname> will be excluded because it is not healthy."
