Objective

This guide details the known restrictions and limitations of the Backup Licenses product that you should be aware of before ordering your licence.

Known restrictions

Veeam Backup & Replication version

  • Our infrastructure only supports Veeam Backup & Replication servers running version 12 or higher. A VBR server on an earlier version cannot be connected to the OVHcloud Veeam Service Provider Console (VSPC), and therefore cannot be assigned a licence.

Operating system and available editions

  • VBR servers running on Linux (Veeam Software Appliance) only support Veeam Data Platform (VDP) licences: Foundation, Advanced or Premium.
  • The Veeam Enterprise Plus edition is only available for VBR servers running on Windows.

The table below summarises the possible combinations:
