Hosting VeeamONE and Veeam Backup SQL DB ?

Post by albertwt »

People,

Can I migrate the Veeam Backup DB from the builtin SQL Express into the dedicated SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition which is already running VeeamONE SQL Database ?

If yes, may I know what's the steps involved that is required since the server is located in different physical site.

Thanks,

Hi Vladimir,

I've got to this problem after the SQL databse migrated using: http://helpcenter.veeam.com/backup/80/v ... ility.html ?

Code: Select all

---------------------------
Veeam Backup and Replication
---------------------------
Microsoft SQL server hosting the configuration database is currently unavailable. Possible reasons are heavy load, networking issue, server reboot, or hot backup.
Please wait, and try again later.

Error information:
SQL server is not available
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------
Why is that happening after the migration and I cannot open the VBR console ?

Hi, Albert,

Based on the support ticket, you were able to solve the issue. If so, I'm wondering what the solution was.

Thanks.

Not yet solved, because I haven't uninstalled my existing SQL Server Express 2008R2 yet.

I can make it to work because I have granted the service account as the sysadmin on the SQL Server 2012 physical box.
