What are the requirements for application aware processing to work directly on the Veeam backup server in v6.1?
Is local backup target ok?
Does transport mode matter?
Can there be spanned disks?
What if Veeam database is on the same server?
What if vCenter database is on the same server?
What if the server is a domain controller?
What server OS?
Does it matter which backup proxy is used (can it back itself up)?

Re: App. aware backup of Veeam server -- v6.1 requirements
Hi Ted,
The requirements didn't change, so you should be using similar techniques for all Veeam B&R versions.
Hope this helps!

No, it doesn't.averylarry wrote:Does transport mode matter?
Yes, as application aware image processing is not affected by disk type.averylarry wrote:Can there be spanned disks?
This should work no matter where Veeam V&R hosts its database.averylarry wrote:What if Veeam database is on the same server?
Add this VM through a standalone ESX(i) server connection and disable application aware image processing.averylarry wrote:What if vCenter database is on the same server?

Please review our Release Notes document for the supported list of operation systems.averylarry wrote:What server OS?
No, it shouldn't matter, just keep in mind that the backup proxy can backup/replicate itself only in the network mode.averylarry wrote:Does it matter which backup proxy is used (can it back itself up)?

Re: App. aware backup of Veeam server -- v6.1 requirements
I'm going to question your response to the Veeam database. With v6 update 3 (and subsequently v6.1), I thought this was changed such that application aware backup is supposed to work even with a local veeam database?

Re: App. aware backup of Veeam server -- v6.1 requirements
You might be right. I have just performed a quick test on my Veeam backup server with a local database and it does seem to work too.
P.S. I have edited my initial response.
