Veeam ONE - IT Monitoring Solutions



Veeam ONE is a comprehensive solution developed by Veeam Software for managing virtual and data protection environments. Veeam ONE enables real-time monitoring, business documentation and management reporting for Veeam Backup & Replication, VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V.

Veeam ONE is designed to give IT administrators peace-of-mind to manage every aspect of the modern virtual environment. Every Veeam ONE capability meets a specific business challenge — from monitoring the state of VMs and their performance, generating reports for capacity planning and upgrade purposes, to providing management with transparent and granular views of the virtual infrastructure from a business-oriented perspective.

Veeam ONE incorporates the following software components:

·         Veeam ONE Monitor is the primary tool used for monitoring the virtual environment and Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. In the Veeam ONE Monitor console, you can manage, view and interact with alarms and monitoring data, analyze performance of virtual and backup infrastructure components, track the efficiency of data protection operations, troubleshoot issues, generate reports and administer monitoring settings.
·         Veeam ONE Reporter provides a set of dashboards and reports that allow you to verify configuration issues, optimize resource allocation and utilization, track implemented changes, plan capacity growth and track whether mission-critical VMs are properly protected in the virtualized datacenter.

Veeam ONE Monitor and Veeam ONE Reporter are installed with one setup and provide a single cohesive solution.

Veeam ONE Architecture:
Veeam ONE relies on client-server architecture to work effectively in environments of any size and complexity. Veeam ONE architecture includes the following structural components:

·         Veeam ONE Server
Veeam ONE Server is responsible for collecting data from virtual servers, vCloud Director servers and Veeam Backup & Replication servers, and storing this data into the database. As part of Veeam ONE Server, the following components are installed: Veeam ONE Monitor Server and Veeam ONE Reporter Server.

·         Veeam ONE Web UI
Veeam ONE Web UI is a client part for Veeam ONE Reporter. Veeam ONE Web UI communicates with the database, processes and displays data in a web-based interface.

·         Veeam ONE Monitor Client
Veeam ONE Monitor Client is a client part for Veeam ONE Monitor Server. Veeam ONE Monitor Client communicates with the Veeam ONE Monitor Server installed locally or remotely.

·         Veeam ONE Database
Veeam ONE database stores data used by product components. The database is hosted on a Microsoft SQL Server that can run remotely, or can be co-installed with other Veeam ONE components.

·         Veeam ONE Agent
Veeam ONE agent is a component that enables communication with Veeam Backup & Replication servers, performs collection of logs, and sends remediation commands.

Veeam ONE agent can work in the following modes:

o    Server
In this mode, Veeam ONE agent is responsible for analyzing log data and signature updates.
Veeam ONE agent server is included into Veeam ONE installation package and deployed on the machine running Veeam ONE Monitor server during product installation.
o    Client
In this mode, Veeam ONE agent is responsible for collecting logs and executing remediation actions on Veeam Backup & Replication servers.By default,
By default, Veeam ONE agent client is deployed on Veeam Backup & Replication servers when you connect these servers to Veeam ONE.









































Veeam ONE Business View Reporting:


Veeam ONE Reporter integrates with Veeam ONE Business View and allows you to create reports and dashboards for business view groups. For example, if you group VMs by department, you can create reports for a specific department in your organization.








Veeam ONE Reporter:


Veeam ONE Reporter — part of an integrated Veeam ONE solution — is designed for documenting and reporting on the Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure, VMware vSphere, vCloud Director and Microsoft Hyper-V environments. Veeam ONE Reporter includes detailed reports and dashboards for documentation, analysis, decision-making, chargeback, change tracking, capacity planning and optimization of resource utilization.












Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager:

Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager (Enterprise Manager) is a management and reporting component that allows you to manage multiple Veeam Backup & Replication installations from a single web console. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager helps you optimize performance in remote office/branch office (ROBO) and large-scale deployments and maintain a view of your entire virtual environment.

The distributed architecture of Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to create a custom backup infrastructure that meets your company needs. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager manages backup and replication according to your administrative, business and security requirements and restrictions. With a number of Veeam Backup & Replication instances installed on different servers, Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager acts as a single management point. It allows you to control license distribution, manage backup jobs across the backup infrastructure, analyze operation statistics of Veeam backup servers, perform restore operations, and so on.

In particular, with Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager you can:

·         Manage jobs across a number of Veeam backup servers.
·         View on-going reporting data for all jobs running on these servers, set up email notifications to get information on the status of all jobs.
·         Search for machines, file shares, and guest files in backups and replicas.
·         Perform recovery operations for VMs and physical machines, including 1-Click restore, 1-click guest OS file restore and application items restore (for Microsoft Exchange mailboxes, Microsoft SQL Server databases and Oracle databases); perform 1-Click restore for file share backups.
·         Centrally manage and update licenses to ensure compliance.
·         Delegate permissions for restore operations to personnel in charge.
·         Manage VMware vCloud Director organizations and support their administrators with the Veeam Self-Service Backup Portal.
·         Manage vSphere user accounts and support them with the vSphere Self-Service Backup Portal.
·         Install vSphere Web Client plug-in on vCenter servers.
·         Implement data encryption and decryption processes for the Veeam solutions.
·         Provide operation automation via Veeam Backup RESTful API.
