Plugin-Pack assets Monitored Objects. Nimble is a subsidiary of Hewlett Packard Enterprise. You can view the post here. For this post, I want to continue discussing Nimble Storage Integration, but provide you a security measure you can implement when configuring your Windows Proxies for Storage Integration or Direct SAN, as Veeam requires a Proxy to be configured with Direct SAN (or ‘Automatic Selection’) when using Backup from Storage Snapshots (BfSS).Nimble Storage produced hardware and software products for data storage, specifically data storage arrays that use the iSCSI and Fibre Channel protocols and includes data backup and data protection features. Synchronized with Microsoft VSS, VMware vCenter servers.I created a previous post on Nimble Storage Integration with Veeam, discussing how you can potentially recover data even if a backup job’s Deleted VMs retention setting has passed.

For Volumes used as Repositories (if you use your Proxies like I do as a ‘combo’ Proxy/Repo box), you select to ‘connect’ those Volumes. This is exactly what we want. When you configure access to your Volumes on your array, your Volumes are not shown as being ‘presented’ to the Backup Proxy. All you need to do is configure access for these Volume(s) on your Nimble array with the Proxy(ies) IQN  and, configure the access on the array to apply to just “Snapshots Only”.I won’t go into the full Windows Backup Proxy configuration process, but setting up your Proxies for DirectSAN/BfSS, you add the Microsoft File & iSCSI Services as a feature/role, and also install Nimble Connection Manager (NCM) and Discovery address to present your Nimble Volumes to the server.

Notice no ‘disconnected’ Volumes in NCM below (which would be shown with a red ‘x’ icon on the Volume instead of a green check mark) but rather only my Repo Volumes:Hope this helps you in implementing better security measures when using Storage Integration in your Veeam environment. Mitigating the potential of data removal.
