Only kernels contained in CentOS up to version 8.3 are supported (that would be 4.18.0-240.22.1.el8_3.x86_64).

Hi,

Unless I am missing something, the kernel you are running is not even from any official CentOS repo.

Code: Select all

#uname -r
5.13.9-1.el8.elrepo.x86_64
So it's not officially supported.

Since it's 5.13, I am not sure whether it will work even with this patch from our github.

Thanks!

Thank you very much!

Changed my default kernel to 4.18.0-240.22.1.el8_3.x86_64, removed veeam and all of it`s modules and now it works properly, thank you once again!

P.S. BTW, it won`t work with this patch
