How to review a new version?

[Backup_Guy]

Hello,

I'm somewhat new to Veeam and major upgrades. I'm looking for someone who has been through one and can give me some pointers. What did you read or how did you prepare for the upgrade. Did you wait for a patch for the version to be put out first... ETC

I‘m always going forward with the GA Version. Veeam Support is one of the best, if something isn‘t working.

There are some documents to read before the upgrade:

Upgrade Checklist

If you use a Cloud Connect Provider, please check with them, that they already have the newest version.
And read the system requirements for any changes to os support or hypervisor support.

My test enviroment.
Tomorrow, my main Backup server will be upgraded. Had to check something first with veeam support for my Nutanix AHV Backup integration to get clearance for the update (old support case of mine )
