Amazon Linux AMI

I assume Veeam Agent works without problems on Amazon Linux version?
Thanks!

For a list of supported operating systems please have a look at https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=20

It looks like Amazon Linux AMI is a custom distro and therefor isn't supported right now.

Huh, not good news than, what is your alternative for backing up Amazon AMIs?
can we compile agents?

how far is this one: https://go.veeam.com/backup-recover-aws

Hi,

Well, yes, you can compile it - I've heard of people doing so and that dkms from epel-release repo works just fine. We've already received several requests for that OS support, so it is already on our roadmap.

Thanks!

Hi,
Are there any timescales on this? I have a couple of EC2 Linux (AMI) machines to backup and would prefer not to have to look at a different backup product for 2 machines.

Thanks

Hi Chris,

Support for EC2 is already being researched.

Thanks!
