Dealing with toll fraud, I mis-configured a firewall rule and left a gateway wide open. Won't do that again

New problem, install veeam free on a spare server.
Added my Hyper-V host and tried doing a VeeamZip on a Linux VM. Failed. Rebooted all 3 (i.e. Veeam Server, Hyper-V host and VM) still no go.
Shutdown the VM and it works
This is the error:-24/08/2018 13:07:17 :: Unable to allocate processing resources. Error: Job failed ('Checkpoint operation for 'VMNAME' failed. (Virtual machine ID ED67A2C9-56F6-429D-AD2E-89FF8375CDE3)
Production checkpoints cannot be created for 'VMNAME'. (Virtual machine ID ED67A2C9-56F6-429D-AD2E-89FF8375CDE3)'). Error code: '32770'.
Failed to create VM recovery snapshot, VM ID 'ed67a2c9-56f6-429d-ad2e-89ff8375cde3'.Getting the feeling instead of being like a "Ducks Arse" i should look at maybe a "paid" solution that will be Hyper-V and ESXi
Is the Linux Integration Services installed on those VMs?

Hope everyone has a good Friday!

After sleeping on it and taking everything in, i've decided to give Hyper-V another chance (can some confirm that (i think i've seen this mentioned) hyper-v can replicate to another hyper-v server for FREE?)
Yes, Hyper-V (and its features) are all free.

Apparently -erroraction doesn't work with get-aduser and such... I use a try/catch block in my code.

Reading a FUN FAQ FRIDAY email from HR and the subject line says HR FFF!!!

@black3dynamite HR at my old company said they were there to answer any of our questions. The HR director was a girl I went to elementary school with. I used to e-mail her complex, morally grey scenarios expecting her to answer my questions. She did a lot of the time. Learned a lot about how Jill thought. lol

A little Googling and testing returned this.
Get-ADUser -filter { samaccountname -eq $SAM }
if$SAM
has a username that doesn't exist, there's no error message. Just an empty value, which I can then use in the forthcomingif
statement. -

Make AD accounts form a CSV of names, some of which already have accounts. As a challenge I wanted a programmatic way of ignoring those that exist rather than seeing errors that X account exists.
I think I’ve got it figured out.
