As many of you know Gostev sends out his weekly newsletter Sunday nights and there is some newly tested storage integrations.  If you use any of the following check it out -

From “The Word From Gostev” newsletter:

A few storage integration news next. Our QC has completed qualification of the following new storage offerings and firmware versions and we've declared their official support right with the current Veeam Backup & Replication version 11:


• HPE Alletra 9000 which is a new storage based on Primera OS is now fully supported for storage snapshot integration functionality. Until the UI has been updated, register it as an HPE 3PAR storage. Note this does not include Alletra 6000 which despite the similar name is based on a different OS. We have some lab time scheduled with HPE at the end of this month, after which we should have a good idea of the work required (if any) and so the target release for Alletra 6000 support.
• HPE Primera with Primera OS 4.3 is now supported for storage snapshot integration when using iSCSI fabric (in addition to the current FC support). Note that while previous versions of Primera OS too advertised some level of iSCSI support, they do not support the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator and are thus not compatible.
• Cisco Hyperflex is now supported for Veeam CDP starting from version 4.3.2a which fixes the compatibility issue with VMware VAIO. Note that you will also need to upgrade their VMware vSphere to 7.0 Update 2.
• DELL EMC Data Domain with DD OS version 7.6 is now supported as a backup repository, including DD Boost integration.

See Anton Gostev’s addition to this topic:

A few week ago I shared that we declared official support for HPE Alletra 9000 (Primera OS based) but still waiting to test HPE Alletra 6000 (Nimble OS based). Today, I'm happy to announce that we completed the testing and are announcing support for the Alletra 6000 immediately with all the same storage snapshot integration features as for Nimble arrays. Kudos to HPE for ensuring no API calls we use broke! Until the backup console UI has been updated in V12, you should register Alletra 6000 arrays as HPE Nimble storage. By the way, here's an excellent new support KB article that tracks ALL of our many primary storage integrations along with features supported for each specific storage > KB4206
