No repositories showing when configuring a backup

[Iain_Green]

Testing the Linux agent on Veeam 9.5
Have successfully installed the Linux Agent on a Centos 6 VM and install a 30 test license.

When I configure a job to point to Veeam and provide credentials no repositories appear for me to select in the GUI?
I have 6 so am surprise none are showing?

Under configuration settings I have selected Server also.

Am I missing something?

Figured Out.. .can't use SOBRs!

Do you know when these will be available?

[nielsengelen]

This is planned in a future release (be it a patch or a next version).

Hello,

thank you for your response

Hi,

SOBR support will be introduced this year.

Thanks

[francs]

Please add my vote for Scaled out backup repositories support for the Linux agent

[svenh]

SOBR support will be introduced this year.

While I knew that SOBR are not currently supported with VAL, I also have normal Repositories connected to my B&R instance and they also do not show up during configuration. Is this also a known problem?

[nielsengelen]

Did you configure the agent permissions on the normal repo?

Did you configure the agent permissions on the normal repo?

I read the documentation twice, but this is something I obviously missed.

I am having the same issue only I am not using a SOBR. I am trying to connect to my VB&R server and using only a standard backup repo.

I am able to get the Linux agent to connect with the VB&R server, but when I try to list the repos available, there are none.

I just applied to 9.5 update 1 because I saw in the documentation this is required. Still the same issue.

Idea?

Hi,

The same question - have you allowed Agents to access the repository?

Thanks

[davis_b]

meant to mention that as well. Yes I do have the permissions setup already. I know the permissions are working because I am using the same account for Windows agents and they see the repositories just fine.

[PTide]

If the repository does not belong to the group of repos that are not supported (DataDomain DDboost, HPE StoreOnce, Exagrid, Cloud, SOBR), the please open a case with support team and post your case ID here.

Thank you

Oh, well my repositories are backing up to Data Domain. I didn't see that in the documentation as a limitation until just now. I was following the "using with Veeam backup & replication" route in the documentation, which didn't state this limitation. The note was found under "creating backup job with backup job wizard" which I was configuring via cli.

That would explain it then.

Do you know when/if Data Domain DDBoost will be supported?

thanks!

[PTide]

Unfortunately the only thing I can tell you now is that it probably won't be supported at least until the end of 2017

Thank you

[davis_b]

ok, thanks!

I have the same issue in my environment (DDBost Repository and Linux agent), I don´t select the DD Repositories for Backup, any sugestion?

Tks!

[nielsengelen]

DDBoost are not supported. This is why you don’t see them.
