Installing Veeam Backup on an excisting Backup Exec

Post by wksantiago »

I am installing Veeam backup where VCP is running with Backup Exec. So it has its own SQL database instance. When I try to insttall Veeam Backup I choose to install a new SQL instance. At the end it fails.

Can this scenario work?

Thanks

William, yes this should work fine. What error are you getting? I am guessing that the account you are using to run setup does not have enough privilege to create install or database. Can you please double check this?

Gostev,

On the end of the setup I get the following error:

The setup was unable to install new instance of SQL server
Press OK

The the screen that says: InstallShield Wizard Completed
Press Finish

That is it!

We have both BackupExec 12.5 and VB running on the same server. I couldnt tell you which one we installed first. But they can co-exist.
