Veeam: Jobs Backup

Included in	All Checkmk editions
Source Code License	Open Source
Supported Agents	Windows

This check monitors the status of the backups jobs run by the Veeam backup tool. In order to carry out the check, the Veeam agent plugin needs to be installed on the backup server. See special instructions in the comment section of the two Veeam agent plug-in scripts on how to install the scripts.

This check is OK if the result of the backup is Success. It is WARN if the result of the backup is Warning. It is CRIT if the result of the backup is Failed.

If the result of the backup is None, the state of the job decides. While the job is running, the previous result is kept. If the job is not running, it has no execution history yet and the check is OK. Any state that cannot be interpreted results in UNKNOWN.

For backup policies managed by the Veeam Agent, the result of the policy only reflects applying the policy to the protected computers. Therefore, the last finished backup of each computer currently protected by the policy is evaluated in the same way, and the service shows the worst of them. If more than three computers have problems, their number is shown and they are listed in the details. Computers without problems and computers without a finished backup yet are listed in the details. If the protected computers cannot be determined, the service is UNKNOWN. This requires the current version of the agent plug-in.
