Cumulative Patch Installation and Verification in Veeam Backup 12.1.1.56

[mallikarjunac]

Hello Team,

I noticed the cumulative patch 'Updates\veeam_backup_12.1.1.56_CumulativePatch20240127.exe' in the veeamBackup-12.1.1.56-20240127.iso. Could you please confirm if this cumulative patch is applied automatically via silent mode installation by the VBR_install answer file? If so, could you kindly advise on how I can verify whether the cumulative patch has been applied using PowerShell?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Hello Mallikarjuna

I noticed that you are currently using the v12.1.1.56 ISO. However, the latest release is v12.1.2.
I highly recommend upgrading to the most recent version as it includes bug fixes for various known issues and security vulnerabilities.

It's important to note that the update folder is no longer utilized and has been removed from our ISOs. In previous versions, our installer would initially install the GA version followed by the patch.Now we directly apply the latest version from the ISO.

Once the deployment is complete, you can verify the installed build version by using the Get-VBRBackupServerInfo command.

Best,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
Thank you for your response. I am currently using v12.1.2.172 version, but this version does not include a patch. For reference, I mentioned v12.1.1.56. I was unsure how the silent mode installer handles patches when included in an ISO. I understand that the silent mode installer first installs the GA version and then applies the patch if it exists. Thanks for the confirmation.
