Backup job in remote site not working

Post by btmaus »

So I have two sites, with VBR in my main site with two Proxies, and a NAS repository in my backup vlan. The VBR and two Proxies have a 2nd NIC in this backup vlan so they can all see the NAS repository.

In my remote site, I have two Proxies and another NAS repository in my backup vlan, and as above, the two Proxies have a 2nd NIC in this backup vlan so they can see the repository.

The backup vlans are not routable.

My backup jobs in the remote site work fine to a CIFS share on the NAS repository. I setup some backup copy jobs in the remote site, to the same repository (different CIFS share), and I get an error message saying "cannot connect to repository".

Idea's?

Hi,
I setup some backup copy jobs in the remote site, to the same repository (different CIFS share), and I get an error message saying "cannot connect to repository".
Can you check please which proxy does your second backup job use and if that proxy has an access to that CIFS share?

Thank you.

Thanks for the reply.

I re-created the repository in Veeam and the backup copy job, and now its working. Weird!
