NOTE

Consider the following:

  • You cannot specify encryption settings for the backup job if you have chosen to save backup files on a Veeam backup repository. Encryption options for Veeam Agent backup jobs targeted at the backup repository are managed by a backup administrator working with Veeam Backup & Replication. To learn more about data encryption capabilities available in Veeam Backup & Replication, see the Data Encryption section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
  • You can specify file indexing settings only if Veeam Agent operates in the Workstation or Server edition.
  • Nosnap Veeam Agent for Linux and nosnap Veeam Agent for Linux on Power do not support application-aware processing and cannot be used to back up database systems.
  • You can specify settings for Oracle, MySQL or PostgreSQL database system processing only if Veeam Agent operates in the Server edition. The settings are available for a volume-level backup job only.
  • You can specify backup maintenance settings only if you have selected the Veeam backup repository or Veeam Cloud Connect repository option at the Destination step of the wizard.
  • You can specify backup health check settings only if you have selected the Object storage repository option at the Destination step of the wizard.
  • You cannot specify data compression settings when you configure a backup job with the Backup Job wizard. If you want to specify these settings, consider creating the backup job with the Veeam Agent command line interface. To learn more, see Advanced Backup Job Settings.
