To collect information about your backup infrastructure and track the efficiency of data protection, you must configure the connection to one or more Veeam Backup & Replication servers.
Before you begin, make sure that:
- Your Veeam Backup & Replication version and edition are supported. For details, see Integration with Veeam Backup & Replication.
- All necessary ports are open. For details, see Ports.
For this scenario, you will connect a Veeam Backup & Replication server. Optionally, you can also connect Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager to monitor all backup servers federated under Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager in a similar way.
To connect Veeam Backup & Replication server:
- Open Veeam ONE Monitor.
For more information, see Accessing Veeam ONE Monitor.
- Launch the Add Server wizard. To do this, click the Add Server button on the toolbar.
- At the first step of the wizard, select Veeam Backup & Replication server. If you don't want to install Veeam ONE Agent, clear the Install Veeam ONE Agent check box.
- At the Name step of the wizard, specify DNS name or IP address of the server and select the Veeam Backup & Replication server role.
- At the Credentials step of the wizard, specify credentials of the user account for connecting the server in the DOMAIN\USERNAME format.
The provided credentials will be used to connect the backup server and all managed servers in the backup infrastructure.
