Veeam Backup & Replication provides detailed logging of performed data protection and recovery tasks. The Veeam Explorer for Microsoft Active Directory logs are located in the %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Veeam\Backup\ActiveDirectoryExplorer\Logs folder on the backup server.

Tip

If you want to submit a support ticket, make sure to include all log files so that comprehensive information is provided to Veeam Support Team. You can do this with the Export Logs wizard as described in the Exporting Logs section of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
