Configuration Database Connection Settings Utility

The Configuration Database Connection Settings utility allows you to manage connection settings for Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager and Veeam Backup & Replication configuration databases.

Using this utility, you can perform the following:

  • Connect Enterprise Manager and Veeam Backup & Replication to a different database on the same or another server.
  • Change authentication method for database connection. Possible options are Microsoft Windows authentication and database server authentication.

Note

  • With the Configuration Database Connection Settings utility, you can connect Enterprise Manager (or Veeam Backup & Replication) to a configuration database of the same product version only. For example, you can connect Enterprise Manager 12.1 to a configuration database of version 12.1.
  • The Configuration Database Connection Settings utility is shared between Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager. If they are installed on the same machine, make sure these products are of the same version.

  1. Launch the utility.
  2. Select a product.
  3. Specify database connection settings.
  4. Apply connection settings.
