System Requirements
The machine where Orchestrator will be deployed must meet the necessary hardware and software requirements. Note that the Orchestrator server can function as a Veeam Backup & Replication server and a Veeam ONE server (in addition to Orchestrator functions) and, if used in this way, must have sufficient resources provided.

|
User Management | Windows domain-joined machine |
SQL Server | Local or remote installations of the following versions of Microsoft SQL Server are supported:
Note: It is not recommended to use the Express Edition in any production Orchestrator deployments — it should be used for product evaluation only. |
Additional Software | All components will be installed during setup. For inline Report editing, Microsoft Word component of SP2 for Microsoft Office 2010 or later is required. |
Veeam Software | If a remote Veeam Backup & Replication server is used for backup and replication task management, it must be version 11a or later. Note: Only connections to Veeam Backup & Replication servers deployed on Microsoft Windows Server OS are supported. |
