Veeam Catalog space usage with malware detection enabled

Reading Time: 3 minutesVeeam Backup Catalog is a feature of Veeam Backup & Replication that stands for VM guest OS file indexing. Veeam Guest Catalog service on backup server works as a local catalog service. It collects index data for backup jobs on this specific backup server and stores this data locally in the Veeam Backup Catalog folder. By default, the indexing data is stored in the VBRCatalog folder on the backup server. Veeam Backup & Replication creates the folder on a volume with the maximum amount of free space, for example, C:\VBRCatalog.

Implementing the four-eyes principle in Veeam Backup & Replication

Reading Time: 4 minutesWhat is the four-eyes principle? The “four-eyes principle” (also know as the two-person rule) means that a certain crucial and critical activity (prone to human errors) must be approved by at least two people. This controlling mechanism is used to facilitate delegation of authority and increase transparency but also minimize errors or security attacks. In Veeam Backup & Replication, starting with v12, is possible enable the Four-Eyes Authorization feature to protect some crucial operations.

GPU support in VMware vSphere

29 June 2024
No comments

Reading Time: 3 minutesGPU support in VMware vSphere has been for a while starting with the VDI scenario. But can GPUs be used in vSphere for applications other than VDI? Using GPU not for graphics but for computing… because for some type of operation, GPU can be better than CPU. For example, machine learning models involve very large matrix multiplications and GPUs are designed to compute these operations much faster than CPUs. VMware vSphere allows your end users to consume GPUs in VMs in the same way they do in any GPU-enabled public cloud instance or on bare […]

DPU support in VMware vSphere

28 June 2024
No comments

Reading Time: 3 minutesA Data Processing Unit (DPU) is a programmable computer processor that tightly integrates a general-purpose CPU with network interface hardware. In VMware, starting with vSphere 8.0, DPU can be used to offload workloads from an x86 host to a DPU, as well as providing an additional layer of security by having an air-gapped environment running some of the processes. This is the result of Project Monterey.

VMware ESXi 8.0.3 live patching

27 June 2024
No comments

Reading Time: 3 minutesOne of the big news of the vSphere 8.0.3 (8.0 Update 3) version if the ability of live patch ESXi without reboot the host and without migrate the workloads! With the new Live Patching capability in ESXi, customers can address critical bugs in the virtual machine execution environment  and apply patches to all components without reboot or VM evacuation. Virtual machines are Fast-Suspend-Resumed (FSR) as part of the host remediation process, for this reason this new feature is not compatible with some specific cases (like VM protected by vSphere FT or VM with PCI passthough).
