We have upgraded VBR and EM to version 12.2. According to our discussion with the OS team, due to a vulnerability, they need to remove the older version 3.1.32.31915. We can only see the highlighted .NET version required for version 12.2

NET Framework and ASP.NET Core Shared Framework 8.0

 

We observed  .NET Core runtime 3.1.32 and .NET Runtime 7.0.20 in VBR server

 

We would like to know if we can remove .NET Core runtime 3.1.32 and .NET Runtime 7.0.20, as it is not mentioned in the article

Please advise.

You can remove that .NET Core Runtime and not affect Veeam.  I don’t even have that version on my Veeam server in my lab and everything works fine.  To be safe if you prefer verify with support like Markus mentioned.

Hi Nikks,
hard to tell, i would suggest it’s working. But keep in mind, maybe it will be redeployed by another Windows or Component Update.

But to be sure, i would suggest, let’s verify by Support Team.

Also a valid option: if your VBR is running in a VM, you could test it within a SureBackup/Virtual Lab - remove the .Net components within the Virtual Lab - and check if within the deinstallation process anything drops errors. Also after a reboot within the Virtual Lab, check if Veeam itself is running without issues (for sure, you will have no connection to your productive Repositories and other Proxies in this scenario).

I really liked the recommendation, use of the sureback functions for us too (as an IT professional) :-)
