Veeam Data Platform 13 is finally here and fully released

To kick things of in my new series of VDP 13 articles, we have the ultimate upgrade guide covering all the major components you will have in your environment

This guide will cover the upgrade only, keeping VBR/VEM on Windows, I will cover migrating to Linux in a separate article when the process is available to everyone

The minimum requirements for each component for upgrade is

  • Veeam ONE 12.0.0
  • VEM 12.3.1
  • VBR 12.3.1
  • VRO 7.2.1
  • Veeam Console 12.3.1

Here are some snippets from my article, linked at the bottom

Veeam ONE

 

VRO

 

VEM

 

VBR

 

Veeam Hardened Repository

 

Veeam Remote Consoles

I hope this helps anyone looking to upgrade to the latest version and take advantage of all the new features

Hey Leaha,

That’s huge! I’ve been working on a VBR update guide myself but you absolutely stole the show with putting everything together.

Nice work!
