Hi team:

 

I have a question about Veeam and Hyper-V. I just installed VBR on a virtual machine running Windows Server 2002 and have 2 W2019 servers running Hyper-V. Can I add both to the VBR infrastructure?

Or can I install agents for virtual machines within Hyper-V?

 

Regards,

Yes, you can add both Hyper-V servers to your VBR. If you do that, you can then take VM level backups of any VMs running on those Hyper-V hosts.

As Tyler mentioned you can add them but you can also use the agent too if warranted. Check the link above and also ensure to consider the Proxy deployment as well as there is on-host and off-host.

Hi @jmaticurena! As aswered before, for sure! You can protect your Hyper-v VMs from direct hypervisor integration and agentless. Just be careful to not allocate your VBR Server VM in the production hosts; if you lost your VBR is gone too and any restore operation will be impacted.

I assumed you typo Windows Server 2002, and it’s Windows Server 2022.

Yes, you can but don’t forget to select credentials for the account that has administrator privileges on the Microsoft Hyper-V server.

Also, back the Veeam configuration to a non-production Hyper-V host with the Veeam manager server. Just in case, you lost the Veeam VM and you can restore it.
