VBO Capacity Calculator Import Settings

Post by Luca Marohn »

In the past the it was possible to login into a customers tenant and let the VBO calculator calculate the db size for mail, onedrive and sharepoint. In the most recent version that's not longer possible but there's the option to import settings.

What are those settings? I didn't find any information for this online. I guess it's a json file since the export is one.

Thanks in advance

Hello Luca,
In the past, it was an automated way that connected to the tenant Graph API and retrieved the data, but that option has been now removed so Customers put their own numbers. You can still get some data from the Graph API, and build a JSON file that you can later import on the calculator, you can find some info here, still in beta - https://github.com/VeeamHub/veeam-calcu ... -VB365Data

All the required data can be retrieved anyways using the Microsoft Admin Portal, including the number of users, and look at the consumption per application, etc.

The tool is there to give you an estimation.

Hope this helps!

Hi Jorge,

Thank you for your fast reply. I'll have a look into it, looks promising.

Too bad the original way doesn't work anymore - it was such an easy and fast way for our sales people to calculate the needed storage quota. But it is how it is :D

Cheers
