Click here to learn about templates created by members of the THWACK community for later versions.Īdministrator rights on the target server. This template was designed for Veeam 6.x and 7.0. WinRM and PowerShell 5.1 or later are installed and configured on target servers. Therefore we select “direct transfer”.ĭepending on your infrastructure you can define backup windows.This SAM application monitor template assesses the overall health and performance of Veeam Backup and Replication Server. Our POC appliance is in the same datacenter as productive servers and primary backup repositories. This mild compression level will not interfere with the appliance dedupe and comprssion. Select Tab “Storage” and enable inline data compression with level “dedupe-friendly”. (Usually I do not recommend using a path on the system partition)Ĭhecking Veeam components on the mount server and installing them if not present.įor demonstration we create a Veeam backup copy job with the Exagrid as target repository.Īdvanced options are important. This is recommended for deduplication appliances.ĭefine a mount server for file-level-restore (FLR) and a path for vPower NFS write cache. You can adjust the value according to the specs of your Veeam server and your environment.Ĭlick on advanced settings to enable per-VM backups. Now you can select a value for concurrent tasks against the same repository. We then can see the shares provided by the repository. Here we need to enter the connection account “exagrid” we’ve defined on the appliance before.Īfter entering credentials we can check the connection by clicking “populate”. Veeam Server needs to authenticate before it can access the repository. Now we need to add our new Appliance as a server which is backing the Veeam repository. Go to repositories and choose “add repository”.Ĭhoose Deduplication storage appliance as repository type.
Our new share is stll offline, because we did not yet connect a Veeam server.Īll further configuration steps are done from within Veeam Backup & Replication console. Here it is important too to select “Veeam Backup & Replication” as share type and Exagrid Veeam accelerated datamover.Ī last hint before finishing installation. In order to store backup data we need also to have a share. If you choose “Veeam” as usertype, the appliance will activate the Veeam datamover. To access the appliance from Veeam, we need a connection user.Įxagrid > Manage > Security Credentials > Create It might take 1-2 minutes until the warning disappears. The appliance wants to point out that you’re still using default passwords. Login to the new management address that we’ve defined in the base config.ĭefault login is: admin / admin Accounts and SharesĪt first everything in the GUI is red. The appliance initializes itself and reboots.īefore you can use Exagrid as a Veeam repository, you need to define security accounts and shares. That’s the end of the base configuration. Every further appliance is called a “spoke”.Įvery site gets a unique support access code. Here you can decide whether it will be a new Exagrid cluster, or if you’re going to join an existing one.įirst appliance is the “hub” by definition. I personally like the “I know what I’m doing” button. I’ve done the base configuration with a point-to-point connected notebook without any uplink. The checkbox “backup” defines the NICs which are going to be used for backup traffic.īefore applying values, there’s a pre flight check to give the user information about possible issues. This specific model has 4 onboard NICs with 1 GBit each and another two NICs with 10 GBit. First we need to adjust time and date.Įvery NIC can be configured for static IP or DHCP. The wizard will lead you through the installation process. After power-on you can reach the web-GUI from the same subnet (192.168.0.0/24). Usually port 2 has a static default IP address (192.168.0.5). Base configurationĪll appliances have multiple LAN ports.
VEEAM BACKUP APPLIANCE HOW TO
I will outline briefly the easy setup process of an Exagrid appliance and how to connect it as a Veeam repository.
