I have an environment where they've decided not to put the hosts on Hyper-V.
I've installed the Veeam Installer service manually.
When I try to add the server into the B&R console, it still tries to access the admin$ share even though the installer service is already there.
Is there a way I can proceed?

Re: Deploying Agents to non-domain joined Hyper-V hosts
I found this which suggests the "administrator" account is exempt from this remote UAC restriction.

Is there no way to install the agent manually and get it to call home to B&R without having to add it into the console as that relies on the admin$ share being accessible?

Re: Deploying Agents to non-domain joined Hyper-V hosts
Hello Dave
A protection group with the type <Computers with pre-installed backup agents> is the feature you are looking for. But may I ask, why do you want to backup your HyperV host with an Agent? Or is your plan to deploy our Veeam Agent to the virtual machine?

Re: Deploying Agents to non-domain joined Hyper-V hosts
sorry, wrong terminology, not the "agent" as such but adding the host to the virtual infrastructure | stand alone Hyper-V section so I can backup the guests.
Works fine with the local "administrator" credentials but not a member of the administrators group. I can see this is remote UAC but there must be a way to deploy the required "components" without using that account or disabling UAC.
BTW, an hour for "Collecting Disks and Volumes information" seems a bit excessive, I went on the server and its basically idle. What's being done here exactly?
