What GetAllProxiesStates does on Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server
AI agents call GetAllProxiesStates to retrieve information from Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why GetAllProxiesStates is rated Low
This is a straightforward read operation that queries and returns the state/status of backup proxies. No data is created, modified, deleted, or overwritten. No external operations are triggered. The operation is informational only and has minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—worst case, an agent gains visibility into proxy status but cannot cause damage through this tool alone.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'Get' and description explicitly states 'Get the current state of all backup proxies' — a query operation retrieving status information without modifications or side effects.
