Logs and Validation Steps for Creating Backup Jobs

A backup job creates a 4096-bit RSA key on Utimaco ESKM, which is then used to encrypt and decrypt Veeam backup files. We can verify the logs from Utimaco ESKM by following the steps below:

  1. In the ESKM Management Console, click Device tab.

  2. Click on Log Viewer under Logs & Statistics.

  3. Click on KMIP under Log Viewer.

  4. Review logs related to the encryption and decryption operations performed on Veeam backup jobs.
