Veeam Job failing on 3rd retry

[David Rodriguez]

I have a backup job that fails after exactly 2 retries. The error says something about "Failed to connect to backup proxy". Any ideas?

Sounds like the proxy VM might be rebooting mid-job. Check your logs or schedule overlap with snapshot cleanup.

Thanks Alex! That was it — had an automated maintenance window hitting my proxy.
