Virtual Machines

Veeam ONE Client allows you to track jobs and policies configured to protect on-premises virtual machines and cloud virtual machines and instances with Veeam Backup & Replication.

You can track real-time job and policy statistics at different levels of your backup infrastructure:

  • Jobs on a specific backup server
  • Jobs on all backup servers controlled by Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager
  • All jobs across the entire backup infrastructure

Viewing VM Job Details

To view the list of VM jobs at the necessary backup infrastructure level:

  1. Open Veeam ONE Client.

For details, see Accessing Veeam ONE Client.

  1. At the bottom of the inventory pane, click Veeam Backup & Replication.
  2. In the inventory pane, select the necessary backup infrastructure node.
  3. Open the Data Protection tab and navigate to Virtual Machines > On-premises.
  4. To find the necessary job, you can use filters at the top of the job list:
  • To show or hide jobs that ended with a specific status, use the status buttons at the top of the list (Show all jobs, Show failed jobs, Show jobs with warnings, Show successful jobs, Show running jobs or Show jobs with no status).
