backup proxy missing

Post by sam.ngai »

Hello
I have installed the veeam backup and replication console, and in the backup infrastructure view, the backup proxy is missing in the inventory pane. And the version is 9.5.0.1038.
How can I get it back?( I have tried to re-install it, but it is still missing).

Have you installed just Veeam B&R console, not the full Veeam B&R? Do you have a full backup server on some other machine that is added to this console?

I think I have installed the full Veeam B&R since I could do the backup job and upload to the backup repository. But I have set up another backup server previously which is using the same license key .
Does it matter?

If you're able to run backup jobs, you should see at least one (default) proxy server in the backup infrastructure (under the Backup Proxies node).

Yes, and I also used the veeam powershell( command is "get-vbrbiproxy") to show the list of all backup proxy and my backup server is the only one proxy.
What bother me most is that I cannot find the Backup Proxies node under Backup Infrastructure view.

Not sure, are you in Full functionality mode? Probably asking support engineers to take a look via a short webex session would be more effective.

I came across this on a new install, and discovered that the Proxy node doesn't show up until you add a vCenter server or ESXi host.
