Question on deploying VeeamOne

[NerfHerder]

Hi all,
Quick question; We are getting started with Veeam, and are prepping for VeeamOne. We deployed out VBR server on a non domain joined server. I am curious if there are any benefits to doing the same with the server where we install VeeamOne? Or does it matter much either way?
Thanks!

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

The idea of having the VBR server standalone (not domain-joined) is to protect it in environments where customers cannot ensure active directory security. As VeeamONE does not have the function of an "insurance" (it's "only" monitoring), I would see more disadvantages than advantages. So I would join the ONE server to the domain.

Just to have it comfortable technically, both works fine.

Best regards,
Hannes

Thanks for the feedback Hannes;
I was thinking the same thing - it might be more comfortable to have the VeeamOne server be domain joined - but figured I would ask.

I also noticed that my colleague was starting to deploy VeeamOne v10, but our VBR is running 9.5u4... should this work out ok?

Thanks,

Hello NerfHerder,

Yes, that is the recommended approach to the upgrade: ONE first, Enterprise Manager second, then B&R. There are no compatibility issues between ONE v10 and B&R 9.5U4.
