Veeam does not backup to ReadyNAS

Author: No Comments Share:

So I had a client that was unable to do a backup to his ReadyNAS and after some searching around I found that a registry key needs to be added to the system so that the backup can complete.

This has something to do with SMB/CIFS extenstions that are sent by Veeam that ReadyNAS does not fully support

I’ve added a REG_DWORD (32-bit) with the name UseCifsVirtualSynthetic  and a data value of 0 to:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication\

on our Veeam server, restarted the Veeam backup service and backups now complete without any issues.
