Hi Gregory and welcome to the Veeam community!

You shouldn't face any issues, but make sure you have a configuration backup before the update. Thanks!

I cannot guarantee the consistency of the Veeam database if you just make a snapshot of the VM.
With the configuration backup, in case of any issues, you can fire up a new VM and deploy a new instance of VBR + SQL, then import all the settings. Thanks!

If the VM is powered off and a snapshot taken, it will be consistent.
