Hyper-V 2016

Post by clockover »

Hello,

As we don't have any release date for B&R 9.5.
Is-it possible to force installation on a Hyper-V 2016 (at my own risk) ?
I am pretty sure, it can working in a standard setup.

Best regards,
Gostev

Hello! Even if it was possible, it is pointless because Hyper-V 2016 has a completely new backup API.

I am in the same boat -ish. One of my standalone hypervisors crashed softwarewise, and I've reinstalled it with Hyper-V 2016 of course, that's the way to go now. This machine only hosts a few testvm's and one management VM. My Veeam machine is still 2012R2 but I can't add the new 2016 host to it. For no role at all it seems. Can we enroll in the beta program (although I think it's already in RTM) through support? While I know Veeam is one of the first to support 2016, it's still just a few days late in my situation.

Unfortunately, not. You'll have to wait till it goes GA. Thanks.

However, it should happen in the next couple of weeks, two to be more precise. So, you won't wait for long. :)

Hi

Have you the release date for VEEAM 9.5 since 2 november ?

It's very annoying to not be able to save our VM in Hyper-V 2016 in case of crash ...

Thanks

RTM build has been already distributed among all Veeam Cloud Connect service providers and active resellers partners. General crowd should get 9.5 in a few weeks. Thanks.

Thanks.


Is it possible to download the RTM version before its release to Public ? Because it becomes critical not backing up correctly VM for few weeks ...

Thank you for the input v.Eremin.

Another question: Will it be possible to upgrade from Backup & Replication 7.0.0.871 to 9.5, or do we have to make the to 9.0 and then to 9.5?

Why do you not communicate a release date ?
It should be simplier.

Because as always the release can easily slip this date.

However, we can confirm that it's just around the corner, so stay tuned.

Thanks.
