Dear Veeam, with the upcoming release of 9.5 Update 2, please could you kindly fix the warning message that appears when performing a SQL Database restore. Even though Veeam support have confirmed it's harmless, it's still embarrassing when you have warnings appearing all over your weekly Veeam report that your manager views.
This is already in our bug tracking system, however, you'd help us a lot if you could provide the log files from your setup, since we were not able to reproduce it internally. You could just re-open the case for that, that will be much appreciated. Logs will allow us to track the issue and fix it in one of the future updates, but I cannot guarantee that it will be Update 2, of course.
Same problem here
Veeam Enterprise 9.5 on physical Windows 2016 server.
Same warning while restore SQL 2012 database from Windows 2012 Server vm.
Is it harmless?
This is probably not the exact right thread as you folks are referencing a known existing bug, but anyone querying the "failed to mount volume" may run across this so I thought I'd share another possibility.
Some environments utilize security applications which block any unknown devices from being utilized, "endpoint security" products.
If you have such a product, Veeam will fail to mount the VEEAM VIRTUAL-DISK SCSI Disk Device because it isn't whitelisted with the Staging SQL Server
After whitelisting this disk, SQL restores can be mounted on the DB Server and handled normally.
Something to keep in mind for those running hardened environments.
