Cannot add ProxMox Server after Uprade to V12.2

Post by Freddl »

Hello,
since Proxmox is supported with version 12.2, I immediately carried out the update. However, ProxMox (and other Servers like KVM) are not displayed under ‘Iventory - Add Server’.
I can still only choose between ‘VMWare vSphere and “Microsoft Hyper-V”. What could be the cause? :?
There are no problems on another machine with a new installation.

Maybe someone knows what to do,
Thank you and best regards,
Fred

Hi,

If you open "Apps and features" on your VBR server, does it have Veeam Plug-Ins listed?

Thanks!

Hello and thanks for the answer.
Yes, there are some plugins installed, including ‘Proxmox Virtual Environment Plug-In for Veeam Backup & Replication’

Any other ideas? I am at a loss.
Thank you and best regards,
Fred

Hello Fred,

Just to be sure, you did update from 12.1 to 12.2, correct?

Hello and thanks for your reply! In this case the system was unfortunately not regularly maintained, i think it was patch level 12.0.0.1420.

Best regards,
Fred

Tried following but reinstalling plugins and repairing with the ISO doesn't make any change.

Hmm...that's odd. What happens if you try and install KVM plugin separately (can be found in "My Products" at my.veeam.com under 'Virtualization Plug-Ins tab in the bottom).

Thanks!

Thanks for you reply. I gave it a try, but after the installation (repair) the same result. Only Hyper-V and vSphere are shown.

Furthermore i receive following Warnings when the configuration backup was running:

Code: Select all

03.11.2024 10:00:48 Warning Failed to connect to Nutanix AHV plug-in: Failed to login to platform service: No connection could be established because the target computer refused the connection 192.168.***.***:8543

03.11.2024 10:00:53 Warning Failed to connect to Proxmox Virtual Environment plug-in: Failed to login to platform service: No connection could be established because the target computer refused the connection 192.168.***.***:8545

03.11.2024 10:00:57 Warning Failed to connect to oVirt KVM plug-in: Failed to login to platform service: No connection could be established because the target computer refused the connection 192.168.***.***:8544
I created a ticket, hope the will find the error. Thanks again for your support, will keep you guys informed.

Best regards,
Fred

Hello,
I was able to solve the problem with the support, a registry key had to be set.
  • Stop all Veeam services
  • Add registry key
  • Code: Select all

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication\API\DbProvider
    Key = Port
    Value = 6172
  • Start services again
ProxMox should then appear in the list and the config backup warnings should disappear.

Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Fred
