Failed to Add Veeam B&R Server

[Markus.K1985]

Hello,

I try to add my Veeam B&R Server 9.5 U3 Server to the DR Site. But I only get a "Wrong credentials" Error. I have connected from DR Server to this Veeam B&R Server via the Console successful.

Are only AD Accounts Supported for the Connection?

Best regards,
Markus

Hello Markus,

Correct, an Active Directory account is required to deploy the VAO Agent to B&R.
VAO and B&R server should be in the same domain or have domain trust in place.

Thanks Alec.

The huge dependency to AD in a DR solution is limiting the use cases in my opinion...

Hi Markus,

I don't really see use case where VAO customer does not have AD.
Also I don't see use case where VAO customer has lost their entire AD! Even after production site disaster, the DR site can still have DCs running.

Can you elaborate on the use cases you are talking about?

Thanks!
