Tested upgrade from V7 to V8 B&R, lost all jobs

Post by PR1 »

Just to test the upgrade and see V8, I built a vm, installed Veeam v7 & patch 4 (as per our live veeam server), restored the configuration backup from the live veeam server, and all restored ok and all jobs present, then upgraded to version 8 and then had no jobs except one backup copy job listed !!

Assume this is a bug (?), but then restored the v7 configuration backup from the live veeam server again, and all the jobs restored into the v8 environment ok

(NB only ever selected the 'free' version on the v8 test vm, did not install any valid license file)

Your issue is caused by the fact that your new v7 server never ran any of those jobs before it was upgraded to v8.

Standard upgrade scenarios do not have this issue:
1. In-place upgrade of v7 to v8 (recommended)
2. Restore of v7 configuration backup to the new v8 install

Thanks!
