Disable "Windows recovery image file not found" warning

[Morgenstern72]

We are testing veeam agent backup for our Scale HC3 hypervisor. Hopefully it will be fully integrated like Proxmox (it's also KVM) but until then we would like to switch from our current backup software to agent-based backup.

Since we backup VMs they don't have a recovery partition. We simply don't need them.

All our veeam backups run perfectly but are grouped as "failed" because "Collecting recovery media files Details: Windows recovery image file not found".
If we need to recover, we either recover single files or we export the disk to a vmdk and import it as new server to our hypervisor. No need for a recovery image.

Can we supress this warning, so the backup does not count as failed and all statuses are green?

Hello Joachim,

You can add AgentsDisableRECollectionWarning key here HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication to disable this warning. Hope it helps!

Thank you, I created it with a reg_dword = 1 and it worked.
