Yes I put your DNS name but I add docker with IP address.

Files seems look ok.

Again I have error OS not supported and cant upgrade veem agent on container. I dont know where is problem everything looks like your screenshots.

At first use only ip, remove dns name.

At second did you setup user access as i did, and does he install the files ?

Can you reach the container and log in via ssh ?

/var/log/veeam and /var/log/veeam/config are directories so you have to do a ls and then there resides some files insider where you can cat.

add screenshot

You say file backup from linux server and then you add the ip address and after this you have to choose the first point (IMHO server) as backup controller, not agent.
In this way it works for me.
CentOS 7 is supported

Yes. I did so.

 

Protected computer is docker.

Hmm,

you choose a different config then I.

I have Job Mode Type Server, Managed By Backup Server

Then under Computer the Ip of the container

In Backup Mode check File Level with backup directly from live file system because we cannot install the snapshot kernel module

under objects the path 

This leads for me to a working backup

 

If it's still not working, you have to wait till the weekend so i have time to build a more up to date container

Thank you very much for your help. Don't let this pressure you. It's nothing urgent, but I'd like to sort this out if possible.

 

Now I setup job as you. Job Mode Type Server, Managed By Backup Server.

But again error but different.

Hello, is this container also functional for Veeam 12.1? I tried to install but I can't start the container. So I don't know what hostname to set (veeam server?)

For anyone stumbling in here like I did, you can backup the Unraid flash device using Veeam, though with a bit of a workaround

I'm not sure starting from what version of Veeam (I have version 12.3) but under "Inventory" -> "Unstructured data" you can add an SMB share as a backup source to Veeam. Unraid also has the possibility to share the flash drive as an SMB share. So, just click on "flash" in the main Unraid menu to go to the settings for the flash device. Set up the SMB share there. You best limit it to only one user to having access through SMB. Also, I didn't give the user read+write access but only read access and I chose "yes (hidden)" as publishing settings so the share is only approachable if you know the share name. If you want to be even more cautious, then give it a custom share name in stead of the default "flash". Then add that SMB share to Veeam through the unstructured data menu I mentioned above and set up a backup job for it as usual. You can right click the share and choose "add to backup job" to do this

Lastly, but also rather importantly, I wouldn't backup the flash device too frequently, as to limit the wear and tear on the USB device. Veeam does do incremental backups so after the initial backup, the load should be a bit lighter but still, better safe than sorry.

I chose to backup once a week, also because there is already the Unraid connect flash backup and my Backup & Restore plugin also backs up the flash device already. The Veeam flash backup for me is only a last resort, if my Unraid server is fully offline and broken and if the Unraid connect backup for some reason hasn't run, is too old or is corrupt or something
