Veeam ONE offers the following types of alarm rules for Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure objects:
- Enterprise Manager
- Backup Server
- Repository
- Proxy
- WAN Accelerator
- Tape Server
- Cloud Repository
- Cloud Gateway
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the Enterprise Manager is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the backup server. |
Disabled job | An alarm is triggered if the time during which a job was disabled has exceeded the specified. |
Job duration exceeded the allowed time period | An alarm is triggered if duration of a backup or replication job has exceeded a threshold duration value (specified in minutes). |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of Veeam Backup server is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the backup server is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the repository. |
Out-of-date state | An alarm is triggered if Veeam Backup & Replication software components installed on the repository server are out of date. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Repository server is running out of free space | An alarm is triggered if free space on the repository is above or below the specified threshold value. You can select to specify the free space threshold as an absolute value (for example, if the storage space should not fall below 10 GB) or a relative value (for example, if the free space should not fall below 15% of total space). |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of the backup repository is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the repository is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the backup proxy. |
Out-of-date state | An alarm is triggered if Veeam Backup & Replication software components installed on the proxy server are out of date. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of backup proxy is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the proxy server is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the WAN accelerator. |
Out-of-date state | An alarm is triggered if Veeam Backup & Replication software components installed on the WAN accelerator server are out of date. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of the WAN accelerator is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the WAN accelerator is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the tape server. |
Out-of-date state | An alarm is triggered if Veeam Backup & Replication software components installed on the tape server are out of date. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of the backup repository is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the server is lost). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the cloud repository. |
Cloud repository lease expiration | An alarm is triggered if cloud repository lease time will expire in the specified number of days. |
Number of VMs stored in repository | An alarm is triggered if the number of VMs stored in the backup repository has exceeded the specified threshold. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Repository server is running out of free space | An alarm is triggered if free space on the repository is above or below the specified threshold value. You can select to specify the free space threshold as an absolute value (for example, if the storage space should not fall below 10 GB) or a relative value (for example, if the free space should not fall below 15% of total space). |
Rule Type | Description |
Event-based rule | An alarm is triggered if some Veeam Backup & Replication event is generated for the cloud gateway. |
Out-of-date state | An alarm is triggered if Veeam Backup & Replication software components installed on the cloud gateway server are out of date. |
Existing alarm | An alarm is triggered if the state of another selected alarm is changed. |
Power or connection state changes | An alarm is triggered if the state of the backup repository is equal or not equal to the specified value (for example, if connection to the cloud gateway is lost). |
