Veeam notification setup.

Post by necroic »

Colleagues, good afternoon!
I need your help with understanding and configuring the Veeam B&R and Veeam Enterprise Manager notification system.
I see the setup and such notification capabilities:
1) B&R General Options - general settings for task reports + Summary Report (status of Scale-Out repositories, Agent tasks and backup copying)
2) B&R each task separately - the result of the task
3) Enterprise Manager - sending a summary report on all tasks of all managed servers, without any separation, for the past 24 hours

Did I miss anything?

Let me explain what I want and what I lack):
There are several offices in my infrastructure, each with its own Backup Proxy, its own repository, its own IT specialist.
I want to send
1) Daily summary report on tasks related to each Backup Proxy to the corresponding employee
2) Weekly report on each repository (total locations, locations used, number and list of RC tasks and checkpoints) for the corresponding employee

I can't find a way to send such notifications, how can I implement such a task?

Before we dig deeper into possible options, can you tell us whether you have Veeam ONE deployed? Thanks!

We do not use this product and do not plan to purchase it. To be honest, I'm not familiar with him, I only know that he is and that he knows how to make some reports.

It would have been easier, if you had it, cause Veeam ONE is our solution for advanced monitoring and reporting (thus we ship it together with VB&R as a part of Availability Suite offering).

Anyway, to achieve what you're after you will need to make use of PowerShell and create two scripts: daily summary (for particular job), weekly report consumption (for particular repository) - this is the only solution I can see here.

Feel free to post your scripting-related questions on the corresponding subforum, chances are the very same scripts already exist there or people will help you to write your own ones.

Thanks!

Vladimir, and in this topic I am grateful to you for your help. )
I plan to get acquainted with the scripts for Veeam and the Veeam One CE product.

I don't think Veeam ONE CE might be helpful here - if I remember it correctly, Veeam ONE CE allows you to monitor only one backup server.

At the moment, I have a single server, and proxy + repositories in the offices.
I only plan to use separate server in every office.

Understood, then you are all set. See how this setup works for you and ask for additional clarification or help (if needed). Thanks!
