Veeam B&R 7.0

Post by TWCVeem »

Greetings

1st Time Poster and Veeam User

We set Veeam to back up 2 Hyper-V servers that each have 4 vertual servers installed.
I was testing a restor today and noticed that the one server only has its C: drive backed up.
The E: F: and G: drives have not been backed up.

Shoes the Node2 Selected DC01 selected and only HARD DISK 1 is listed in the Action section

Shows only the C: drive is select-able , when i am at the point of trying to restore a folder.

Is the licence and version number info.

Any help in how to get the other drives backed up would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Darius, what kind of disks these are? Are all VM disks selected in the backup job at the Virtual Machines step (basically, are there any exclusions specified)?

I was about to post a follow up as i had found something out.

One of the other servers has a E:\ drive which is being backed up. That drive is on the local tin and is "linked" as a HARD DRIVE in the Hyper V IDE controller.

The server that has drives not being backed up.
It's extra drives are on a NAS conected to it Via the iSCSI Initiator.
So they are not "technically" part of the Virtual Server. in that they do not have a .vhd File associated with them.

I hope i have explained that right.

Yes, pretty much. Please note that disks connected via in-guest iSCSI initiator are not supported and are skipped from processing automatically. This is mentioned in the release notes document available with your download.
