I'm wondering what's your support ticket Id (it's required to have one while posting about technical issues). Thanks!

Case #03844337. What's the purpose of a forum to discuss issues if I need a case opened. Why not just open a case all the time.

I resolved the issue and it was something simple. The password was changed and I made the change in Veeam under the backup job expecting it to populate throughout Veeam. This wasn't the case, I had to go into Inventory and change the password here as well. Backups are running again.

Hi RJ, thanks for getting back to update the thread with the resolution, much appreciated. Not everyone bothers to do so and it is one of the reasons why we require support case ID for any technical issue - to be able to track it down later. Please note that this is not a support forum in the first place - more details on the purpose of this forum can be found here Thanks!

Purely for future visitors of this thread, in my case I did the Security & Compliance process on my backup server and fixed all the issues the day before the backups failed with this error (Processing Error: Failed to connect to :11731), my first try was to add the systems that failed to the hosts file on the backup server. Problem solved for me.
