If a Veeam backup job gets interrupted part way through it, you can generally can retry with success.
However, depending on the reason for the backup job interruption, additional issues can arise, one of these being topic of this post, which is change block tracking (CBT) no longer working.
This could be due to a number of reasons, such as a snapshot being removed during a backup, network or storage outage, to a host becoming inaccessible.
You will notice within the backup job's action log the following warning:
"CBT data is invalid, failing over to legacy incremental backup. No action is required, next job run should start using CBT again.
If CBT data remains invalid follow KB1113 to perform CBT reset. Usual cause is power loss."
