Error after upgrading CentOS 8.0 to 8.1

Post by RogerMialkowski »

Hello all,

I have a dev VM that I upgraded to the newly released CentOS 8.1 from CentOS 8.0 and Veeam is having trouble making a snapshot. After I saw the error, I did a "dnf reinstall veeam" and "dnf reinstall kmod-veeamsnap" but that didn't seem to help. I have not tried removing Veeam completely and installing from scratch since that may reset my existing backups and settings. Here's the log in case there are any hints as to what may be the issue:

CentOS 8.* is not supported.
You have to wait for veeam support of this OS Version.

Only CentOS 6.0 – 7.74 is official supported.

Temporarily switching to the previous kernel fixes the operation of veeam agent in Centos 8.1
