ESXi 4.1 support?

Post by evander »

Hi - can you tell me if the latest version of Veeam supports ESXi 4.1 still?
I have some very old boxes that are still running ESXi 4.1 (long story) and I want to Quick Migrate VMs from them to my new infrastructure by adding the 4.1 host into my new Veeam box and going from there.

These two links seem to contradict if 4.1 is supported or not?

Thanks,

Hi,

Yes, user guide is correct - ESXi 4.1 is still supported by v9.5 U3a. The KB is about minimum versions of VBR required to support particular VMware versions.

Thanks!

Yes, ESXi 4.1 is supported with the currently shipping version (Update 3a), so feel free to proceed as planned.
However, please be aware that we will no longer be supporting it with the upcoming Update 4. Thanks!
