It's not a big deal - but if you have to update multiple instances of Veeam, it is extra work which seems unneccessary...
I was just updating from Veeam 12.1.1 to 12.1.2 and the Update ("Upgrade")-Wizard asked be again which Service Account I want to use (I always use LOCAL_SYSTEM), the database credentials, ...
As for the service account, the correct selection is already present - but I always have to get the correct database password from the credential store and paste it in.
It would be really nice, if I just had to validate the current settings on each page and only hit the Next button a few times.

Re: Why do I have to re-enter the Database password, etc on Updates?
Hello Flomp
I didn't had that in my lab environment for my 4 server I have patched.
Update worked without providing any password (I'm using PostgreSQL for the configuration database and LOCAL_SYSTEM to run all services).
Please investigate with support if you want to know why you needed to provide these data again.
Best,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
yes indeed, after my post I patched a Postgres based server and I did not have to enter the credentials again. The ones before were all MSSQL based installations.
As I am planning to move all my installations to Postgres anyway, this is even lesser of an issue. There are way more important topics...![Smile :)](https://forums.veeam.com/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
