Editing Connection to Service Provider

You can edit the following parameters for a connection to a Veeam Cloud Connect service provider (SP):

Changing SP Name

To change a name for the SP, use the following command:

veeamconfig cloud edit --name <new_sp_name> for --name <old_sp_name>

or

veeamconfig cloud edit --name <new_sp_name> for --id <sp_id>

where:

  • <old_sp_name> — current name of the SP.
  • <new_sp_name> — desired name for the SP.
  • <sp_id> — ID of the SP.

For example:

user@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig cloud edit --name SP for --id 7d3022de-4f4d-4c70-85eb-e8a946a555cd

Changing IP Address and Port for Cloud Gateway

To change the IP address and port of the cloud gateway provided by the SP, use the following command:

veeamconfig cloud edit --address <sp_address> --port <sp_port> for --name <sp_name>

or

veeamconfig cloud edit --address <sp_address> --port <sp_port> for --id <sp_id>

where:

  • <sp_address> — IP address or full DNS name of the cloud gateway that the SP or your backup administrator has provided to you.
  • <sp_port> — port over which Veeam Agent must communicate with the cloud gateway. The default port used for communication with the cloud gateway is 6180.
  • <sp_name> — name of the SP.
  • <sp_id> — ID of the SP.

For example:

user@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig cloud edit --address 172.17.53.67 --port 6180 for --name SP

Changing Account to Connect to SP

To change an account whose credentials will be used to connect to the SP, use the following command:

veeamconfig cloud edit --login <username> --password for --name <sp_name>

or

veeamconfig cloud edit --login <username> --password for --id <sp_id>

where:

  • <username> — name of the tenant or subtenant account that the SP or your backup administrator has provided to you. The name of the subtenant account must be specified in the TENANT/SUBTENANT format.
  • --password — add this option if you want to change the account's password. When you run the command, Veeam Agent will prompt you to enter the password of the specified tenant or subtenant account.
  • <sp_name> — name of the SP.
  • <sp_id> — ID of the SP.

For example:

user@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig cloud edit --login ABC_Compan/User01 --password for --name SP
Enter password:

Changing Thumbprint to Connect to SP

To change a thumbprint that will be used to connect to the SP, use the following command:

veeamconfig cloud edit --fingerprint <sp_thumbprint> for --name <sp_name>

or

veeamconfig cloud edit --fingerprint <sp_thumbprint> for --id <sp_id>

where:

  • <sp_thumbprint> — thumbprint used to verify the TLS certificate and connect to the service provider.
  • <sp_name> — name of the SP.
  • <sp_id> — ID of the SP.

For example:

user@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig cloud edit --fingerprint 92FA988A3D9E80EE095DDAB75BF06B05DF6F205B for --name SP
