Veeam Backup choosing wrong proxy

[hyvokar]

Hi!

I have a Backup server running on a site A. I'm backing up a cluster in a site B. The site's are connected with 1Gb network link.
On each node of the cluster there is a Windows 2012 r2 VM installed with 6vcpus and plenty of RAM.

For some reason Veeam Backup & Replication is using only the local server as a proxy and not the dedicated proxies on the cluster at all. What could cause this? And any idea how to fix this? I believe this started after we upgraded from v8 to v9, but cant confirm.

I deselected the local server from the job's proxy list.. let's see if that helps.

Seems that, for some reason, your VMs cannot be used as hotadd proxies. I'd check this KB for possible reasons.
