Hi!

Veeam Agent itself does not require a reboot, however depending on current system locks and state it might be needed because we use .NET Framework 4.7.2 with latest Veeam Agent for Windows, which might call for a system reboot.

Same - typically no reboot required, however there are cases when some depended packages might need a system reboot(dkms?).
In any case, by default Veeam will not force reboot - we will stand Veeam Agent machine in "Reboot Required" state in UI and you are choose to do so when time allows.

/Thanks!
