Proxy used by two Veeam server ?

Post by Manu80 »

Hello,
on Nutanix environment, with vSphere 6.5, for speed up backup I need to deploy one Veeam Proxy on each Nutanix/vSphere node.

It's possible to use same proxy server (Windows VM on each node) from multiple Veeam Server ?
I need to coordinate them?
I need to prevent backup window from overlapping two veeam server? or can they be used at the same time by both veeam servers?

Thanks
Manuel

Hi Manuel.
- Yes, it is possible to share Proxy between multiple Veeam servers
- Yes, you will have to coordinate jobs overlaps due to resource sharing. Two Veeam servers do not know about each other and will fight for Proxies.

And please not that even though it is possible, it is not generally supported. Thanks!
