Incorrect Backup Size Reported

Post by varunb »

Hey all,
I've connected Veeam Agent to a B&R repository, and previously set the agent to create periodic synthetic fulls. The full backups weren't being deleted according to the retention policy, so I disabled periodic fulls on the job.

I deleted old full backups manually from the disk. Backup files integrity check was run and showed no errors. However Veeam agent shows the 'Total Backup Size : 3.36TB' (Incorrect) while the actual size of backups on disk is 925GB. The job currently runs fine with no errors and respects the retention period.

Is there a way for Veeam Agent to report back the correct size of the backups on disk?

Hello,
and welcome to the forums. As you manually deleted files, I assume that the VBR database is out of sync with the reality.

Support might be able to help with that.

I recommend to avoid "fixing" things that are working correctly.

Best regards,
Hannes
