Here is another book by Dave, Cristal, Cary and Emile; what a signiﬁcant milestone!

Ask yourself one ques on: Why? There are so many technologies, but why do we use what we
use? Why do we do what we do? The answer is how. It’s how we use something. I like to explain
some mes compliance in this way. No product or technology is inherently compliant. It’s how it is
implemented and how it is audited. The same goes for technology implementa ons; it’s about
how we use them. The how is the why.

Opera ons are s ll cool. There are so many razzle-dazzle job tles and buzzwords in the market
today, but in the end, Opera ons are Opera ons. DevOps, Pla ormOps, SRE (Sire Reliability
Engineer), Pla orm Engineering… I do not need to go on, but no technology will take care of itself
across all disciplines. How it is used, implemented, monitored, etc., ma ers today. Technology
s ll needs humans and their knowledge.

Expert advice is the difference. We all learn from each other. When taking on the next new
challenge, where does one go first? We look for resources to consume. Blogs, books like this, and
social profiles; the established experts are the trusted advisors in the technology space. Call it
community, social sharing, or what you want; we all find ourselves going to the go-to experts of a
par cular space.

Above and Beyond. What Dave, Cristal, Cary and Emile put forth in this book is outstanding in
their prac cing advice for technology. They could easily focus on their professional
responsibili es and keep them narrow. But wri ng a book is hard work! Edi ng a book is hard
work! I’ve not discussed this with them, but I’m sure they aren’t doing it for the money of wri ng
a book. They write this book because they go above and beyond, share, and care.

I’m sure you will enjoy this book, and a big congratula ons on this book, Dave, Cristal, Cary and
Emile.

Physical Machines
Veeam Backup & Replica on is a centralized control center for deploying and managing Veeam
Agent, including Veeam Agent for Microso Windows, Linux, IBM AIX, Oracle Solaris, and Mac.
Physical machines you want to protect with Veeam Agents are organized into protec on groups
in Veeam Backup & Replica on. A protec on group groups together protected computers of the
same type. To simplify the management of such computers, Whether you create a protec on
group for laptops, worksta ons, servers or any other type of computer, Veeam Backup &
Replica on allows you to group them for dedicated and targeted protec on easily. A separate
protec on group can also be used for Veeam Agent computers that you manage differently than
other machines in your infrastructure.
You can use protec on groups to automate the Veeam Agent deployment and management on
computers in the infrastructure. When you configure a protec on group, you can specify
scheduling op ons for protected computer discovery and Veeam Agent deployment. As a result,
you do not need to install, configure, and run Veeam Agent on each computer whose data you
wish to protect. Instead, you can use the Veeam Backup & Replica on console to remotely

General and User Roles Settings

All jobs, backup infrastructure components, and other backup server-managed objects have
general se ngs applied to them.
Users or groups who intend to work with Veeam Backup & Replica on can be assigned one of the
following roles.

Even if you exclude built-in administrator accounts (Domain\Administrator and

Machine\Administrator) from all Veeam Backup & Replica on roles, they have full access to
Veeam Backup & Replica on. So, for example, users added to the Administrators group will s ll
have access to Veeam Backup & Replica on if the Administrators group is removed from the
Veeam Backup & Replica on roles.

263
Chapter 3 Conﬁgura on

The Veeam Backup Administrator role must be assigned to the user account that runs the Veeam
Backup Service. Users in the Administrators group are automa cally assigned the Veeam Backup
Administrator role during installa on. If you change the default se ngs, ensure that you assign
the appropriate user account as the Veeam Backup Administrator role. It is recommended that
the Veeam Backup Administrator role be explicitly assigned to the user account rather than the
group.
It is strongly advised to enable mul -factor authen ca on to protect administrator accounts from
compromise (MFA).
If you enable MFA, remember that Veeam Backup & Replica on must be run from the service
account with MFA disabled.

Configure Multi-Factor Authentication for Users

Mul -factor authen ca on (MFA) is supported by Veeam Backup & Replica on for addi onal
user veriﬁca on. A one- me password (OTP) generated in the mobile authen cator applica on is
a secondary veriﬁca on method. With login and password creden als, it creates a more secure
environment and keeps user accounts safe.
MFA has the following requirements and limita ons:
 Users can only manage MFA with the Veeam Backup Administrator role.

 Veeam Backup & Replica on Community Edi on does not support MFA.

 Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager does not na vely support MFA.

 User groups are not supported. You can enable MFA only for user accounts.

 MFA works only for interac ve login.

 Push no ﬁca ons for mobile devices are not supported. Only the mobile authen cator

Configure Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA)

A Group Managed Service Account (gMSA) is a domain account that can be conﬁgured on the
server. The Microso Windows opera ng system manages the password, so the administrator
does not need to manage the password. Complex passwords are generated randomly and
changed every 30 days, reducing the risk of brute force and dic onary a acks.
gMSA has the following requirements and limita ons:
 Microso Windows Server 2012 and later support gMSAs.

 Backups of Linux target machines that are members of an Ac ve Directory domain are
not supported by gMSAs.

 Because gMSAs require a connec on to the domain controller, these accounts can only
be accessed via the network.

 If you use a gMSA to back up a machine, both the backup proxy and the target machine
must have access to the domain controller to obtain the gMSA password. In addi on, the
gMSA must be added to a member of the Administrators group on the target machine
(local or domain). Add to the member if Domain Administrator is only required for
Microso Ac ve Directory backups and local Administrator permissions are suﬃcient for
all other supported applica ons.

Note:
gMSA is supported for applica on-aware processing for backups or replicas of VMs running
Microso Ac ve Directory (domain controllers), Microso Exchange, Microso SQL Server, and
Oracle 12c Release 2 and later. However, the gMSA cannot back up or replicate VMs that run
Microso SharePoint.

Create a Backup job to backup the specified VMs

To backup VMs, you must first create a backup job. The backup job specifies how, where, and
when VM data should be backed up. A single job can process one or more virtual machines. Jobs
can be started by hand or scheduled for a specific me.
This procedure creates a backup job to back up the produc on VMs specified.

Immutable Backup is a Veeam Backup & Replica on feature that protects against ransomware

Immutable backup means that once data is wri en to a backup repository, it cannot be modified,

ransomware from corrup ng or encryp ng backup data because the malware cannot modify or
