Registration of USB Drive lost after format?

Post by AlexLeadingEdge »

Hi guys,

For some reason a USB backup drive that has been in rotation for several years seems to have lost its registration with Veeam Agent. Other than a format of that drive a week ago, nothing has happened. Is it possible that the format of the USB backup drive has caused the registration to be lost from Veeam Agent? Is the registration based on the hardware ID of the drive, or based on a volume ID which may have been lost when I did the format?

Hello,
yep, that's normal. You can re-register the drive.

Best regards,
Hannes
