Minimum System Requirements

Post by talltim »

When attempting to upgrade to version 6.0, I'm getting a Warning. However looking though the page about it, I can't find anything I'm missing https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... tml?ver=60
Its a virtual server running Server 2022, with 8 CPU cores, 16GB memory, 500GB hard drive. I've checked .NET version. The link about Universal C Runtime only mentions very old Windows versions.
Is there any way of finding out what it is failing on?

Hi Tim,

the logs should be able to help you out. Do you have a screenshot from the warning?

Tim,

Could you please also check the details from the product logs located at \ProgramData\Veeam\Backup365\Logs\Setup?
There should be something like:

Code: Select all

Checking system for minimum requirements...
Current: CPUs = ..., RAM = ... GB
Minimum requirements: CPUs = ..., RAM = ... GB

Thanks. It reported 3GB RAM so I went and double-checked the VM settings and it was set with Dynamic memory, for some reason, hence it was too low when tested.
Can Veeam M365 cope with Dynamic RAM?

I would suggest at least having the minimum requirements as a static/fixed setting. Dynamic RAM may result in job failures or other issues as we can't predict how it works.

We have it documented in our userguide:
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... mic&ver=60
Memory: 16 GB RAM minimum. Additional RAM and CPU resources improve backup, restore and search performance.
Host with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 also requires a minimum size of 16 GB of RAM for VMs with dynamic memory allocation.

Thanks all. I set it to Fixed rather than Dynamic
