Wie die Verbindung läuft

Was Sie brauchen

  • User name and passwordThe account given the Veeam Backup Viewer role, in the form HOST\user or DOMAIN\user.

Zu öffnende Netzwerk-Ports

  • 9419/TCPREST API (HTTPS, default)
Einrichtungsschritte: Give DumbMonit a Veeam Backup Viewer account
  1. On the backup server, open Computer Management → Local Users and Groups → Users → New User and create the account as follows, with a long random password.

    dumbmonit
  2. In the Veeam console, open the main menu > Users and Roles > Security, click Add, enter the account (for example VBR01\dumbmonit) and give it the Veeam Backup Viewer role only.

  3. In DumbMonit, enter the backup server address (for example vbr.lan) and the account as HOST\dumbmonit or DOMAIN\dumbmonit, with its password.

  4. Tick Accept an unverifiable certificate unless you installed your own: the REST API (port 9419) uses a self-signed one.

Hinweis. Veeam keeps some REST API routes for the Backup Administrator role, the license among them on current versions: with the Viewer role DumbMonit shows the license as not readable and never asks for more.
