Veeam agent backup jobs

Post by tang »

Hi, Seem like the Veeam Agent for Windows is using client push method.
1, Is there a way to check the agent schedule backup job?
2, How to create multiple agent backup jobs for different backup folder at different schedule?

Hi Kim,

First: Welcome to the forum!

1) You should be able to see the schedule in the UI. Or are you using the Veeam Availability Console to deploy your agents? I'm not sure if I understand it correctly
2) It is not possible (this is one of the feature requests we are looking into) but there is a possibility to do this through the API (for the paid versions). Check this thread for more information: veeam-agent-for-windows-f33/need-ad-hoc ... ml#p228273

Brgds,

Mike

Hopefully the paid version able to create multiple backup jobs within a server. Example..
Job1 - backup D:\ProjectA\Subproject\ folder and then
Job2 - backup the entire drive E volume

Thanks

Kim,

As I said, this won't be possible in v2 but the team is looking into this for the future. Consider your request counted as a vote and hopefully you can work with the API for now to achieve what you want to do

Hi Bene,

Thanks for letting us know. The team is aware of this feature and I am pretty sure they are looking into it for next versions ;-)
