Considerations and Limitations

Before you start using the Veeam Agent management functionality in Veeam Backup & Replication, consider the following:

  • If you have already been using Veeam Agents with Veeam Backup & Replication in the standalone mode, after you start managing this Veeam Agent with Veeam Backup & Replication, Veeam Agent will start a new backup chain on a target location. You cannot continue the existing backup chain that was created by Veeam Agent operating in the standalone mode.
  • You cannot map a Veeam Agent backup job or backup policy configured in Veeam Backup & Replication to a Veeam Agent backup chain created by a standalone Veeam Agent on a backup repository.
