On Restore of a Configuration backup , all the jobs started running Full backups in Veeam in folders with _1 in the same directory<\/p>

Per this<\/a><\/p>

“If a new backup set<\/a> is created, but the folder containing the original backup set is not moved, deleted, or renamed, new backup files will be stored in a folder named <job name>_1.”<\/p>

For some reason the backups were ignoring their existing backup sets and starting new ones filling up the drives and creating new VBK Files to resolve this<\/p>

 <\/p>

  1. Stop all the backups running<\/li>
  2. Delete all the new folders on your Backup Location that were created with _1 ,\u00a0important : ( Check the Created Date as some of the _1 might be old backups )<\/li>
  3. Go to\u00a0Backup Infrastructure\u00a0<\/strong> , Backup <\/strong>Respositories\u00a0,\u00a0and run a rescan on all the repository that will clear these in ( Disk Imported )\u00a0<\/li>
  4. Now go to each job ,\u00a0edit the properties, Go to Storage ,\u00a0Backup Repository , and click Map Backup\u00a0<\/strong>and choose the correct Repository for each job<\/li><\/ol>

    Run a backup again and make sure it’s creating a file into the existing folder<\/p>
