December Chocolatey Month banner; Alfred, a cat and community mascotte, is wearing a Christmas hat and licking a Chocolate bar with the Chocolatey logo on it. On the background pine trees are draw, a green heart and some festive swirls.

 

What are the (minimum) required package parameters to install an Enterprise edition with the Chocolatey package veeam-backup-and-replication-server?

 

a) username, sqlPassword, mountserverPort
b) sqlUsername, sqlPassword, sqlDatabase
c) username, password, licensefile
d) nfsDatastoreLocation, username, password

    The only required parameter is the licentiefile, otherwise it will operate in community edition. The other parameter will use the default if not specified.

    c) username, password, licensefile

      I’ve tried only community edition, but I’ll say C is the right one:

                    c) Is the correct answer. 

                    •  You'll need a licensefile to unlock the enterprise features.
                    •  When running a local SQL Server with the instancename (local)VEEAMSQL2012 or (local)VEEAMSQL2016 (depending on the os), the parameter sqlServer is not required
                    • The username and password are used for starting the service and authenticating to the SQL Server
