WD devices showing unavailable after upgrading Server to Windows 2025

Since upgrading our backup server to Windows 2025, on Veeam the WD devices are showing as unavailable and we are unable to rejoin them to active directory.

    Can you define what the WD devices are?

     

    Have you checked the local firewall rules? What error do you get when adding them to AD?

      Are the WD devices repos or servers?  A Windows 2025 upgrade should not affect anything as I have done this a few times now.
