I've setup a replication job to replicate our V4 Veeam HO database (SQL Snapshot Replication) to our DR site (running its own SQL server). Call it VeeamV4HO.
At the DR site I have an existing Veeam server doing local backups with database - VeeamV4DR.
I've stopped the service on the Veeam server at the DR site, updated the 'SQLDatabaseName' registry entry to point to Veeam4HO, but when I restart the service I get an error:
"Configuration database is in use by the veeam Backup console installed on 'XXX-XXX'. To reconnect database to this console, please run Veeam Backup setup program"
So I'm guessing theres a record in the database somewhere which flags which server has created/connected to it.
Is there a way to update this value in the DB? I was hoping to be able to switch between database simply by stopping the service, updating the reg key, and restarting the service again.
Thanks,
A

Re: Replicating Veeam Database
Andrew,
To resolve this you should update the registry key on the DR site for Veeam backup server, please see all the instructions here:

Re: Replicating Veeam Database
Thanks Vitaly.
Figured it must have been something else in the Registry, as I couldn't find a record in the DB anywhere.
Cheers,
A

Sure, this is a registry key.
