# Accessing Veeam Self Service Backup Portal

This support document outlines how to login to your Veeam Self Service Portal to manage your backup Virtual Data Centre backups.

In the vCloud Director platform you have access to self-service backups to allow you to backup and restore your VMs without our assistance. As long as you've purchased the backup storage for one of your Virtual Datacenters you will have access to the portal.

Historically you had to access the portal via a separate URL but we've integrated this into the vCloud Director portal to make it easier to access.

To access the Self-Service backup portal follow the steps below.

**Step 1.** Login to the vCloud Director portal.

## Legacy Access

The Veeam Self Service portal can alternatively be accessed directly. Each vCloud organisation has a dedicated URL and they will be in the following formats.

* <https://veeam.syd.mhn.net.au:9443/>[vCloud/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[ORGANISATION-NAME](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)
* <https://veeam.mel.mhn.net.au:9443/>[vCloud/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[ORGANISATION-NAME](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)
* [https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[ORGANISATION-NAME](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)[/](https://veeam.per.mhn.net.au:9443/vCloud/BusinessITM/)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://kb.hostednetwork.com.au/support/services/cloud/infrastructure-as-a-service/vcloud-director-legacy/backup-and-restorations/untitled.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
