Enterprise Manager
Self-service
When a user either downloads or restores a file or files in the Self-Service portal they are first downloaded to the Enterprise Manager server.
The file(s) are first downloaded to:
C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup\Temp
Where they are either copied back to the host, or they are zipped and moved to:
C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup\WebRestore
Where they are available for download via the Enterprise Manager GUI.
However, it can be difficult to estimate the size required for this volume upfront and resizing the C partition isn’t quick or convenient.
To avoid this issue you are able to move the location of the download by modifying a couple registry keys on the Enterprise Manager server:
Temporary location:
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Path | HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup Reporting |
| Key | WebRestoreTempFolderPath |
| Type | REG_SZ |
WebRestore location:
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Path | HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup Reporting |
| Key | WebRestoreFolderPath |
| Type | REG_SZ |
Enterprise manager will require a restart for the changes to be applied.
Self-Service: vCloud Director Item restore
Due to network restrictions that are often in place in vCloud Director environments, Item restore is not possible. To avoid potential issues and to improve the user experience of the portal you can use the below workaround to hide the Items tab.
WARNING: This is unsupported procedure and might change without further notice. Do it at your own risk!
To hide the Items tab you need to edit:
%Program Files%\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Enterprise Manager\WebApp\scripts\build\production\VCloud\resources\VCloud-all.css
Add this CSS rule to the end of the file to hide Items tab (since it’s last tab in menu):
.x-tab-top-menu:last-of-type {display: none;}
