Wrong info in Inventory listing

Post by perjonsson1960 »

Folks,

When I click on "Inventory" in B&R Console, and look at the VM container via the vCenter server, there is a column named "Last Backup".
All that information seems to be correct for all our 328 VMs, except one. It says there that it was backed up 27 days ago, but it is backed up every day. When we look at the VM in VMware, it says that it was backed up yesterday, which is correct. And when we run RVTools, it also says that it was backed up yesterday. Has anyone else experienced this anomaly?

Kind regards,
PJ

Hi Per,

The only immediate idea that would come to mind is that the moref ID for the VM got changed at some point and perhaps reused, as it's not expected.

Have you opened a Support case already? If the above idea doesn't seem to match, then it's best to let Support take a look at the situation. For a case like this, a copy of the Veeam Configuration Database would assist with the investigation if your company's data export policies allow it.

Please share the Support Case number once its created so we can track the case, thanks!

Hello again,

I have not opened a case yet, but I just discovered a curious thing...
All VMs that have had malware events regarding .onion links have wrong info in the "Last Backup" column.
We have so far five VMs with reported .onion links, and for all of them it says "14 days ago", even though backups are done every night.
This can hardly be a coincidence. All other VMs seem to have correct info.
