SQL Server on Windows 2012R2 related question

[datamedicit]

Hello

I have a client which has a Windows Server with Windows 2012R2 operating system

Its an accountants office and the server has already an SQL 2012 Standard instances on it

I want to install the Veam Agent for windows on this server and setup a network backup but im afraid that since veam also installing SQL server instance it might mess up the client's Server's sql instances

Anyone that can guarantee that the veam will not mess up my clients already installed SQL Databases and instances ?


Thank you in advance

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

since veam also installing SQL server instance

well, that's not really a SQL server instance we install. It's SQL Express LocalDB (many people mix that)

And yes, you can install the agent on a SQL server / SQL cluster. LocalDB and the "real" SQL server do not interfere with each other. And of cause it's supported

Best regards,
Hannes
