Logs and Validation Steps for Creating Backup Jobs

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

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

2. Click Log Viewer under Logs & Statistics.

3. Click KMIP under Log Viewer.

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