Manual Proxy Install

[borgiaj]

Does anyone know if there is a way to manually install the Veeam backup proxy services directly on the proxy server without using the wizard through the B&R console? We're having trouble adding a proxy server to the backup infrastructure because the environment is hardened in a way that we cannot disable UAC on the proxy. We're having trouble connecting to the ADMIN$ share on the proxy, and it looks like it's UAC.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Joe,

Yes, you can manually install the required components. Here is a blog post about this: https://www.vladan.fr/what-is-veeam-proxy/

Thanks!

Hi, is it possible to manually install backup proxy on a VM or physical server without configuring on the Veeam server? Do you have any guides or procedure for this? Thanks.

Yes, have a look here:

In theory you can install the needed packages manually. The packages needed can be found in a folder on the Veeam Server. Can you please share why you want to do this and how you want to install the packages? The Proxy processing need later Administrator access, so that you could anyway use the integrated software distribution.

Please share more details about the why and how to allow me to guide you better.

Hi folks,

I've moved the discussion to the existing thread to keep similar questions together.
Phia, please take a look at the discussions above.

Thanks!

Hi Andreas,

In case I want to have the binaries on the proxy to install by hand from there instead of from the VBR console, where can I find the binaries to copy to the proxy?

Hi Johannes

You can find the binaries here:
C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup\Packages

Or under this path on the installation ISO:
X:\Packages

Once the Installer and Backup Transport Services are installed are there any other configuration steps to be performed? What is required on the VBR server to scan in the new proxy server?

Hi Martin

You need to run the "add proxy" wizard in the backup console.

Best,
Fabian
