Hello all,
I am new to veeam backup (1st day) but I love it so far. I ran a backup job in my test environment and the backup appeared to complete, but I received the following error:
13 of 13 files processed
Total VM size: 25.00 GB
Processed size: 25.00 GB
Avg. performance rate: 32 MB/s
Backup mode: VCB SAN
Start time: 5/27/2009 4:28:08 PM
End time: 5/27/2009 4:41:36 PM
Completing current object backup process
Agents failed to start, server "localhost", client "servername.com"
Cannot connect to server [192.168.10.30:2500].
I am sure this is an easy fix for the experts out here. Veeam Backup is installed on my physical VCB proxy and is where I am running the backup from. (actual server name and IP was changed to protect the innocent). Can someone please help in explaining a solution for me? Thank you

Re: Backup Error
Hello Alfred, what Veeam Backup and ESX host versions are you using, and what is this server: 192.168.10.30?
It would be best if you send us all logs from Help | Support information to support@veeam.com. Usually it is hard to say anything based on just summary error description, unless it is known issue we have seen before (which it is not).

Re: Backup Error
Gostev,
Thank you for your reply, I am using Veeam Backup and FastSCP version 3.0.1 and backing up a VM on ESX 3.5.0 (158874). 192.168.10.30 is my VCB proxy server, I think I have the issue fixed. My VCB proxy server is in a firewalled network, I have requested port 2500 be opened and will try again. I will post my results here when it completes.
Thank you

Re: Backup Error
It was a firewall issue. Problem solved, new backup task completed successfully!

Re: Backup Error
Thanks for letting us know. You may want to open a few more ports above 2500 (2501, 2502 etc.) if you plan on running multiple jobs in parallel - it's one port per job.
