Getting Started with Veeam for Filer Backups

Patrick3 — Fri, 30 Sep 2022 19:18:27 GMT

We moving to Veeam as our backup solution and I'm getting started on backing up my filer. Veeam needs credentials to connect to the filer and do it's work. I'm trying to figure out what roles/permissions Veeam needs in order to do its work. I imagine someone here has this working already. I'd appreciate information on how you're doing it.

My filer is back on 9.3P2, Our Veeam version is 11.

Thanks!

That information should come from Veeam.

Quick google search shows it's out there:

Veam KB should have similar information for VBR 11.
