Monitor Veeam: FAQ
What is Veeam monitoring?
Veeam monitoring refers to the use of monitoring tools and solutions to oversee the performance, health, and availability of virtual, physical, and cloud-based environments. This includes tracking backup and replication processes, ensuring data protection, and identifying potential issues before they impact business operations. It helps administrators maintain optimal system performance and quickly respond to any anomalies.
How does PRTG monitor Veeam Backup & Replication services?
PRTG utilizes preconfigured as well as custom sensors designed to monitor Veeam Backup & Replication services, tracking the status and performance of backup jobs, replication activities, and the health of backup repositories. These sensors provide detailed insights into job success rates, warning and error messages, and the overall efficiency of your backup processes.
Can PRTG alert me if a Veeam backup job fails or runs longer than expected?
Yes, with PRTG's customizable alerting system, you can receive immediate notifications if a backup job fails, exceeds its expected runtime, or encounters any issues that could compromise your data's safety. Alerts can be set up to notify you via email, SMS, or push notifications, based on your preferences.
Is it possible to monitor the storage usage of my Veeam backup repositories with PRTG?
Absolutely. PRTG enables you to monitor the storage capacity and usage of your Veeam backup repositories, ensuring you're alerted before reaching capacity limits. This proactive monitoring helps prevent failed backups due to insufficient storage space and allows for timely expansion or optimization of storage resources.
How can PRTG help optimize the performance of my Veeam backup environment?
By providing real-time data on backup job durations, success rates, and resource usage, PRTG helps you identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies in your Veeam backup environment. With this information, you can make informed decisions to optimize backup schedules, adjust resource allocations, and improve overall backup and replication performance.
Does PRTG support monitoring of Veeam backup activities in cloud and hybrid environments?
Yes, PRTG's flexible monitoring capabilities extend to cloud and hybrid environments, allowing you to monitor Veeam backup activities across physical, virtual, and cloud-based resources. Whether your backups are stored on-premises, in the cloud, or a combination of both, PRTG provides comprehensive visibility into your data protection efforts.
Can PRTG monitor more than backups?
Of course it does. As an all-in-one network monitoring tool, PRTG also keeps an eye on your cloud environments (with vendors such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, or Nutanix), or your virtualized infrastructure including virtual machines (with vendors such as Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware vSphere). Not to mention application monitoring, hardware monitoring, SLA monitoring, or SQL monitoring functionality.
What is a sensor in PRTG?
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive.
On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
More than just a monitoring tool:
