## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {

## Why StartHealthCheckBackup is rated High

Health check and repair operations are Execute category because they trigger backend processes that modify backup integrity state. Severity is high due to the blast radius: if an AI agent misuses this on critical backups, it could corrupt recovery data or consume significant infrastructure resources during repair. The tool is part of a backup/replication system where operational safety is paramount.

From the tool's own definition: "'Run a health check and repair operation on backups' indicates the tool triggers an active operation that repairs backup data."

## Use case

AI agents invoke StartHealthCheckBackup to trigger actions in Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
