[RELEASE] Managed Hardened Repository ISO by Veeam

[Gostev]

Is it understood right, that now we can upgrade current working V2 Veeam hardend repos with the new Veeam Infrastructure Appliance V13 iso?
And it keeps all the backups etc.?

Of course after VBR v12 is upgraded to v13.

Correct. I personally added a note about this as we were updating the V13 What's New document last week

We are testing the managed hardened repo iso on new tech refresh and had found some odd behavior. If there are two disks showing as the same size it will fail, we had 3 disks setup, 2 were each 2TB and then once was a RAID 60 750TB drive. We combined the 2 2TB disks into a singular RAID 6 array and the install worked. The other odd thing is that the repository it created on the RAID 60 750TB array is only showing as 650TB and when looking at the OS are unable to find where the 100TB of missing data went or was assigned. Any help in understanding this would be appreciated, my current guess is maybe it was used to create a separate volume for instant VM recovery and the deploy is set to make it based upon a % of disk size?

First "odd behaviour" is clearly explained in the system requirements. Did you read the first post in this topic? It even uses your exact disk layout as an example.

Second "odd behaviour" is unexpected. Perhaps 750TB is raw and 650TB is usable RAID capacity? If not then please have our Support investigate as you're the first with something like this after all this time...

please make sure VHR ISO V2 is still available for V12 users to download. To avoid confusion, we can have it under the Previous Versions tab only.

Managed Hardened Repository ISO V2 is now available for download under Previous Versions tab of the Downloads page (look for Veeam Hardened Repository ISO for v12). This should be used with VBR V12 only, for VBR V13 please deploy hardened repositories with the Veeam Infrastructure Appliance (VIA) ISO. Thank you!
