Can I protect Veeam Backup Server on virtual machine by Veeam Agent for Windows?

Post by brighton0725 »

Hello,

I want to protect Veeam Backup Server on virtual machine by Veeam Agent for Windows in addition to the configuration backup.
Because I don't want to re-install Veeam Backup & Replication when it fails for some reasons.

It is possible to do that?

Regards,

[MERGED] Agent on Veeam Backup Server

Post by steri »

Hi,

i would install the Veeam Agent on the Veeam Backupserver to backup any files on it.

It is possible to do this? Any special configuration like no CBT Driver or anything?

Yes, this is fully supported. No special things to be aware of. Just make sure that both Agent and Veeam B&R are of the same version (release cycle).
