Which Hypervisor is supported for VSA?

[renatorichina]

In the system requirements under software, you write "Veeam Software Appliance ISO deployment to a virtual machine is supported, provided the hypervisor is listed as supported by Veeam."

I am somehow confused: which hypervisor is now supported for a VM installation of the Veeam Software Appliance? As we don't have vSphere, is VSA supported to be installed on Hyper-V and/or Nutanix as a VM ?

Hi Renato,

Hyper-V and Nutanix AHV should be supported.
I believe we’re referring to the Hypervisor section in the supported platforms list, but I’ll double-check with the team to confirm.

Best,

That is correct, Veeam Software Appliance ISO deployment to a virtual machine is supported for ALL hypervisors for which Veeam offers host-based VM backup functionality. Since we have a dedicated lab for each supported hypervisor, it does not take much effort to validate each ISO release on these hypervisors.

Hi all,

is VSA supported also on hyperscalers?

In particular, we are evaluating to have a VSA deployed on OCI VM for HA/DR with VMWare SDDC environment (deployed on demand).

Thank you

No, I don't believe we test on hyperscalers simply because most of them do not provide an ability to boot from ISO. However, hosted VMware should be fine of course, as they use regular vSphere bits.
