Which Vcenter Privileges do i need for the Option "Quick Backup"

Post by WinstonWolf »

Hi ,
With the Veeam Plugin for Vcenter 7.0 the Option for Veeam Quick Backup is available in Vcenter .
We search a combination of Vcenter Privileges that make it possible to create quick Backups but make it impossible to create Vmware Snapshots .
Is there an Solution for this ?

Thanks
Michael

Hello,
as Quick Backup is snapshot based and you like to deny snapshots... I see a conflict :-)

The user guide describes the required permissions. The permissions depend on which backup mode you proxy is using. All backup modes require snapshots. Snapshots are needed to find changed blocks between two points in time and to get a consistent state of a machine.

Best regards,
Hannes
