Hi
We have received a security alert from Veeam for potential data loss issue: VMware vSphere.
We are using the following environment at the moment.
1. VeeAM version is 9.0.0.1715
2. Windows 2012 R2 standard
3. VMware vCentre server version is 6.0.0 Build 3018524

My VMware license is included with vSpehere vMotion feature

My Questions.
1. Is our environment is affected?
2. Can I upgrade Veeam version to latest version 9.5.4.2866 in my current setup

Could you please suggest and help me.

Hello!

No, your environment is not affected, since you're not using 9.5 Update 4.

Yes, you can upgrade your installation to 9.5.4.2866, and it's highly recommended that you do so.

Thanks!
Anton

Hi ,
Thank you for your update.
But is it a smooth update using my VMware vCentre server version 6.0.0 Build 3018524 and OS Windows 2012 R2 standard?

Hi,

Can I upgrade my Veeam 9.0.0.1715 version to 10.0.0.4461 directly or I need to upgrade 9.0.0.1715 to 9.5 first and then to version 10. Could you please suggest

Thank you

In-place upgrade to VBR v10 is possible only from 9.5 update3 or later.
/Thanks!

Hi Ajeesh,

Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade directly to v10 from v9.0 Update 2. You may upgrade to v9.5 Update 4b first, then upgrade to v10. Please carefully review the release notes and upgrade instructions before upgrading!

Thanks
