System Requirements

Before you start using Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes, consider the following:

Backup Server

The machine where the Veeam Kasten Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication will run must meet the system requirements described in the System Requirements section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.

Additionally, the following software must be installed:

  • Microsoft .NET Core Runtime 8.0
  • Microsoft ASP.NET Core Shared Framework 8.0

Important

Microsoft ASP.NET Core Shared Framework and Microsoft .NET Core Runtime must be of the same version (up to the minor version number).

For example, if the version of Microsoft ASP.NET Core Shared Framework is 8.0.8, then the version of Microsoft .NET Core Runtime must also be 8.0.8.

Starting from version 6.5.9, K10 no longer supports Veeam Backup & Replication installed on Microsoft Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2.

Kubernetes Distribution Requirements

Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes supports only backup exports of Kubernetes persistent volumes to Veeam backup repositories. These persistent volumes must be provisioned with the vSphere CSI driver.

Kasten Application Version

A Kasten application must be the 5.5.3 version or higher.

Kasten Dashboard Access

An external access to the Kasten dashboard must be set up. For more information, see Veeam Kasten Docs.

Veeam Backup & Replication

The Veeam Kasten Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication version 12.1.3.xxx supports integration with Veeam Backup & Replication version 12.2.0.

Veeam Backup Repositories Requirements

Veeam backup repositories, where you want to keep backups exported by Kasten policies, must meet the system requirements specified in the Backup Repository Server section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
