We are just starting rolling out OneDrive, Sharepoint Online and Teams for many of our users, and I feel the need to have a working backup solution before the users takes off uncontrolled into the cloud. I need to know how Veeam counts the licenses needed. I tried scripting the population of the O365 group that I use for exclude, but it seems a little difficult since many of my accounts dont have a valid email adress (disabled users). Now the daily job says that I have X number of users excluded, but still I am overusing with 15 users. Note Veeam Backup & Replication consumes licenses only to back up data. For more information, see Merging Licenses. You can use both instance and socket licenses. To try to fix this issue, I created a Office365 group and took 15 users from the pdf list over active licenses and added the users to that group. Veeam licenses Veeam Backup & Replication in two ways: per instance and per socket. If I run the License usage report from the console, and the select only the last two days, the pdf tells me that I am using 548 licenses in total. This means that I am using 515 licenses when I only have about 300 active users. My backup job failes and in the console it says that we are overusing with 15 licenses. In our AD we have about 300 active users, so we should be not be underlicensed on a short term. My backup takes backup of the entire Tenant with no excludes at the moment. That means that sharepoint sites will not be counted as a seperate license. I have been told that Veeam only counts the active user objects within O365. We have bought 500 licenses for backup of office 365.
