Unable to Create Folder (name: ) Error

$
0
0

Challenge

The following error occurs when creating a folder in the S3-Compatible Object Storage bucket: "Unable to create folder (name: <folder_name>)".

User-added image

Cause

Certain S3-compatible API do not support an unsigned payload used by Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 as the x-amz-content-sha256 authorization header. Applicable to builds: 4.0.0.1345, 4.0.0.1553.

 

Solution

Upgrade the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 server to version 4.0b (build 4.0.0.2516) or contact technical support to get a patch for version 4.0a (build 4.0.0.1553).

 

More Information

Veeam Backup and Replication and the S3-Browser tool (a 3rd party tool for S3 storage) are not affected.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 Support for Microsoft Office 365 Multi-Geo Tenant

$
0
0

Challenge

This article explains how Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 supports backups of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 tenants with the Multi-Geo feature enabled.

Solution

  • Exchange Online
    Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 fully supports Exchange Online mailbox backups for Multi-Geo configured tenants.
  • SharePoint Online / OneDrive for Business 
    Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 supports SharePoint Online Personal sites only and OneDrive for Business backups for Multi-Geo tenants with the following limitation:  

    After data migration, a full backup will be performed for the site on the next backup job run. This limitation is caused by an inability to get the required information on site changes after its migration to a different region. At the same time, backup consistency is preserved without any data duplication.

Support statement for Tiger Bridge

Challenge

Using cloud storage gateway software like Tiger Bridge to copy backup data to cloud storage providers like and/or to reclaim disk space belonging to copied backups from the primary backup repository based on certain thresholds.

Cause

Veeam Backup & Replication architecture and interaction with its backup files requires that all backup file's data remains in the backup repository, and does not support external data movers that offload some or all of backup file's data to another storage, including object storage.

Veeam recommends using native Veeam Backup & Replication functionality for offloading backup files to object storage, which operates in a significantly different manner:

1. It preserves certain essential parts of offloaded backup files' data in the primary backup repository permanently.

2. It passes the awareness of offloaded data blocks to various product functions, which then treat such data blocks in a special manner to ensure reliable operations, acceptable levels of performance, and reduced storage/ingress/egress costs.

Solution

Veeam Customer Support will not support environments where some or all of backup files' data is being offloaded to another storage with 3rd party solutions. For additional information, please refer to the User Guide.

Veeam Customer Support is unable to assist with failed restores from copies of backups made by 3rd party solutions, because Veeam cannot guarantee that the backup files' data was correctly managed by the 3rd party application, and is consistent. This is especially true with object storage, which often provides "eventual consistency" only.

Backup Jobs with Public Folders fail

$

Challenge

The following error occurs when backing up public folders: "Processing mailbox PublicFolderMailbox@xxxxxxxx.onmicrosoft.com failed with error: Failed to synchronize item changes in folder: FOLDERNAME.. Access is denied. Check credentials and try again., ICS synchronization failed.".
 
Log files may contain the following information:
 
20.12.2012 07:55:14 16 (1448) Processing mailbox:  PublicFolderMailbox@xxxxxxxx.onmicrosoft.com...
20.12.2012 07:55:14 16 (1448) Syncing folder items: FOLDERNAME...

20.12.2012 07:55:14 16 (1448) Error: Failed to synchronize item changes in folder: FOLDERNAME.
20.12.2012 07:55:14 16 (1448) Type: Veeam.Ews.Internal.ExServerCodeException


In addition, Veeam Explorer for Exchange may fail to show successfully backed-up public folders.

Cause

Either of the following conditions may cause the error:
  • Public folders are not located under the IPM_SUBTREE folder.
  • The Default user does not have permissions to access public folders.

Solution

The Public Folder is not Located Under IPM_SUBTREE

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 works with public folders located under the IPM_SUBTREE folder only. Other locations such as, for example, NON_IPM_SUBTREE are not supported.
To check if the public folder is located under the IPM_SUBTREE folder, run the following cmdlet and specify credentials used in Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365.
$creds = Get-Credential
$session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $creds -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
Import-PSSession $Session
Get-PublicFolder -Identity \ -Recurse | Format-List Name
Remove-PSSession $session


An output similar to the following must be displayed:
 

Name : IPM_SUBTREE
Name : PublicFolderMailbox@*********.onmicrosoft.com
Name : FOLDERNAME
Name : Second Sub Folder
Name : Third Sub Folder

If, according to the output above, a public folder is located under the IPM_SUBTREE folder, no additional actions are needed. Otherwise, if the public folder is located under any other unsupported folder, make sure to move such a public folder to IPM_SUBTREE.

The Default User Does Not Have Sufficient Permissions

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 uses impersonation to back up public folders. When a public folder is created, it automatically inherits permissions from its parent folder. One of these permissions is assigned to the Default user and grants the Author access rights. In case when an Exchange administrator revokes granted permissions from the Default user, impersonation cannot be performed.

In case you do not want the Default user to have access to public folders and want to use the service account instead, make sure to assign either the Owner or Reviewer permissions to each of the public folders of the service account.

To see the accounts that have access to public folders and the permissions given, run the following cmdlet and specify credentials used in Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365.
$creds = Get-Credential
$session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $creds -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection

Import-PSSession $Session

Get-PublicFolder \ -Recurse | 
    Get-PublicFolderClientPermission | 
    Select-Object Identity,@{Expression={$_.User};Label="User";},@{Expression={$_.AccessRights};Label="AccessRights";} | 
    Export-Csv C:\PublicFolderClientPermission.csv

Remove-PSSession $session

The cmdlet saves information about users and permissions to the C:\PublicFolderClientPermission.csv file.
User-added image

To grant access, you can do either of the following:
  • Assign either the Owner or Reviewer permission to each of the public folders (and sub-folders) of the Default user.
  • Add your service account to public folders with the Owner or Reviewer permissions, and disable impersonation.
To assign permissions, run the following cmdlet and specify credentials used in Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365.
$creds = Get-Credential
$session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $creds -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection

Import-PSSession $Session

$folders = get-publicfolder "\" -recurse

foreach($folder in $folders)
{
Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity $folder.identity -user YourServiceAccount@*******.onmicrosoft.com -AccessRights Reviewer
}

Remove-PSSession $session

NOTE: It is recommended to use PowerShell to assign permissions to public folders.

The following table shows an example of users permissions after the cmdlet is executed.
User-added image

Once the cmdlet is executed, make sure to disable impersonation for the service account. After impersonation is disabled, the service account will have direct access to public folders.

To disable impersonation, do the following:

1.  Open the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 console and stop active backup jobs (if any).
2.  Open the Services.msc console on a proxy server that is responsible for processing public folders.
To find out which proxy server is used, in the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 console, right-click a backup job, select Edit and go to the Specify Backup Proxy and Repository step.
3.  In the Services.msc console, stop the Veeam Backup Proxy for Microsoft Office 365 Service.
4.  Create a backup copy of the C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup365\Proxy.xml file by copying it to another location.
5.  Open the original Proxy.xml file using any text editor and add the <Source EwsImpersonatePublics="False" /> line between <Veeam><Archiver> tags.
Example:
<Veeam>

    <Archiver>

        <Source EwsImpersonatePublics="False" />

       .....

       .....

     </Archiver>

</Veeam>

6.  Save the Proxy.xml file.
7.  Start the Veeam Backup Proxy for Microsoft Office 365 Service.
8.  Open the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 console and run backup jobs with public folders.

NOTE: All PowerShell scripts provided above are intended to get and assign needed permissions automatically to ensure that no public folders are missed. 
Please be aware that the commands and parameters may be altered by Microsoft in the future, which may cause thees scripts to function incorrectly. 
There is no support provided for these scripts, and should they fail, we ask that you please contact Microsoft support. 

These scripts may be updated in the future to reflect changes to the Office 365 PowerShell Environment.

Challenge

One of the extents is filling up faster than the others and you want to balance them, but only certain backups/tenants need to be moved to another extent. 
This article applies to Backup, Backup copy, Agent backups, Agent backups with subtenant accounts.

NOTE: This article must not be applied for backup migration from a simple repository or for backup migration between extents of different Scale-out backup repositories. For such cases, refer to this article: https://www.veeam.com/kb2236

Before you proceed, check REFS Fast Clone limitations. For more information, see this article:
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_repository_block_cloning.html?ver=95u4

Cause

  • An extent is filled up because of the “Data locality” SOBR placement policy.
  • An extent is filled up because of the other extent “Evacuation”.
  • A new extent was added to SOBR and a part of the backup needs to be migrated there.

Solution

Local SOBR:

1. Disable the job that needs to be migrated.
2. Migrate the whole backup chain including .vbm file to another extent.

    Backups need to be placed in the same folder starting from repository root.
Example:
Repository name is SOBR, there are 2 extents, backups need to be migrated from “SOBR Extent 1” to “SOBR Extent 2”.

0

Challenge

This document explains how to recover or migrate Veeam Backup for AWS data to a new instance.

A Veeam Backup for AWS instance may fail or get corrupt and requires the data volume to be moved to a new instance since it contains information about restore points, repositories, policies. Additionally, this procedure can be used when migrating between editions (for example from FREE to BYOL or MMS). 

Solution

To perform a migration to a new instance, deploy a new Veeam Backup for AWS instance via the AWS marketplace using Cloud Formation as explained in the user guide on installing Veeam Backup for AWS.  

Before beginning, make sure that both Veeam Backup for AWS instances are in the same AWS region and availability zone.

To perform the migration, do the following:

1.   Detach volume 2 from the new Veeam Backup for AWS instance. By default, this is ‘/dev/sdb’. This can be done via the EBS ID link. On the volume page, select "Detach Volume" from the Actions menu.
 
NOTE: It is recommended to stop instance before detaching a disk, as a disk may stuck in the Busy state for a long period of time.User-added image
 
User-added image
2.   Repeat the first step for the old Veeam Backup for AWS instance. This will free up the data disk so it can be attached to the new instance.
3.   Within the Instance overview, copy the instance ID from the new Veeam Backup for AWS instance.
User-added image
4.   Within the Volume overview, select the data volume from the old Veeam Backup for AWS instance and select “Attach volume” from the actions dropdown. 
User-added image
5.   Within the “Attach volume” window, fill in the instance id from the new Veeam Backup for AWS instance and device name.
User-added image
6.   The new Veeam Backup for AWS instance is now ready and can be started.
7.   Once the new Veeam Backup for AWS instance is started, you must go through the initial setup to configure the instance and create the initial user. Afterward, you will see all your backup policies, repositories, restore points... User accounts are not migrated so they will have to be recreated.
8. Go to "Cloud Formation service" in the region where our server is deployed.
9. Select appropriate Stack from the list by clicking its name in the Stack Name column.
10. Got to "Resources" tab.
11. Find out Logical ID ‘VeeamImpersonationRole’.
12. Go to the role description by clicking it's name in the Physical ID column.
13. Copy Role ARN by clicking Copy to clipboard on order to add it to the trusted list for recently added role.
14. Go to the Roles tab in IAM service.
15. Find our recently added role.
16. Select it by clicking its name in the Role Name column.
17. Go to the Trust relationship tab.
18. Click Edit trust relationship.
19. Add the following JSON text:
{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
    {
        "Effect": "Allow",
        "Principal":

Challenge

Transform operations of a large file located on Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 deduplicated volume are failing with an error:
“Error: Client error The requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation Failed to flush file buffers. File: Filename.vbk

Cause

Veeam is not able to write any data to the affected file because of a NTFS limitation.
Manual un-deduplication (Expand-DedupFile) of the this file also fails with the same error.

Solution

Backup repository must be located on a volume formatted with the large FRS using the command “Format <Drive:> /FS:NTFS /L”

Workaround:
1. Disable Windows deduplication
2. Un-dedupe backup files: copy backup files to a temporary folder, delete original backup files and move copied files back to the original location.
3. Disable NTFS compression on backup repository volume.

More Information

For Windows Server 2008(R2) please refer to Microsoft KB for a detailed description of the issue:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/967351

This issue is resolved in Windows Server 2012(R2), however formatting with the large FRS using the command “Format <Drive:> /FS:NTFS /L is still needed.

Important: the command Format <Drive:> /FS:NTFS /L erases all data from the drive.


Additional information regarding suggested configuration of Server 2012 dedupe for backup storage can be found in this article: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn891438.aspx
 
Depending on the total size of the volume to be formatted you may have to set the cluster size during the format process. Please reference this article to determine which cluster size is needed.
 
 
For more information related to this issue please see this forum post:
 
http://forums.veeam.com/veeam-backup-replication-f2/error-related-to-file-system-limitation-t21448.html

Please note: reformating the volume with /L flag usually helps, but you can still get the same error message later, you can still hit limitation and 4096 Bytes Per FileRecord Segment will not be enough
