[Kei]

Hi,

I would like to know the permission for crendentials when I install view agent using VBR to physical servers.
I will install to Windows Server and Linux Servers.

Thank you.

Hi

If you use protection groups to install the Veeam agent for Windows, the account must have administrative permissions.
To install Veeam Agent for Linux, root or an account with sudo permission is required.

You can also use a protection group of type "Computers with pre-installed agents". In that case, you don't need to provide any credentiuals in the VBR console. But you have to deploy the agents by yourself.

Thanks
