[error] Failed to create volume snapshot
[error] Failed to take volume snapshot
[error] Failed to perform backup [error]
Veeam snapshot kernel module not found
System information
SO: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP4
Kernel: Linux version 4.12.14-95.32-default

VBR Console: 12.3.2.3617
VAL: v6.3.2.1207
I read ready the list of compatibility with extended Linux distributions of veeamsnap and blksnap https://www.veeam.com/kb2804 couldn´t see the compatibility for a 4.12.14-95.24 or 32 or 128 also on rpm veeam repository I don't see a version(*)
After to installed manually veeamsnap-kmp-default-6.3.2.1207_k4.12.14_94.41-sles12.4.x86_64.rpm and consult it is ready installed, this showed the "rpm package veeamsnap is not installed"
We could say that the installation is done practically offline.
*I fully understand that they are different versions and the veeamsnap-kmp-default package must exactly match the running kernel version.
When running the "zypper refresh" command, the repositories are listed as "up to date." This is except when you query https://repository.veeam.com/backup/lin ... repomd.xml.

Download (curl) error for http://repository.veeam.com/backup/linu ... ata/repomd. xml' =
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Failed to connect to repository.vecam.com port 80: Connection timed out
If you see any module that we are missing that are specific to this version, please let me know, and where can I download them?
To anyone interested, if you've been able to fix this error, please share your thoughts; I'm open all ears.
