Ensuring all servers are backed up in your estate

cookiejc · Post by **cookiejc** » Nov 20, 2013 4:22 pm this post

Hi,

Is anyone using anything to ensure all servers across their VMware estate are backed up? We have multiple Vcenters and I am looking for a method to flag when a server isn't being backed up by Veeam.

Any ideas welcome! thanks

Looks like the "Protected VMs" report in Veeam One is the easiest way to be informed about such VMs.

Thanks for your reply. We don't have Veeam one at the moment and it wouldn't be a quick process to get it. I was hoping there was something available within Enterprise manager or the Vsphere web plugin

Then, this Powershell script might be exactly what you're looking for. Thanks.

Good morning!

I was wondering if there was a way to tell which VMs in vsphere that AREN'T in a job already? Thanks!

Ryan, please review this thread for available options. Also, "Veeam Backup Status" report could be helpful.
