Linux agent + Veeam Backup & Replication + S3 destination

[madrian]

Hi,


I’ve configured Backblaze B2 as an S3 backup destination on my Windows system using the Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) console. I successfully backed up a virtual machine from my ESXi host via the VBR console - so it works.

Now, I’m trying to set up a Veeam Linux Agent, but it only shows the default backup repository (which is a local folder on the VBR host) and not my S3 backup destination. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Hi Adrian, welcome to the forums.

Can I ask if configuring the Access Permissions for the repository in the Veeam Backup and Replication console has been done? It sounds like the Agent is not managed by VBR (Agent was installed and configured directly but please correct me if I'm wrong), and I believe this is the step you're missing, then your Object Storage repository should be accessible.

Bingo, it works now! Thank you
