Express Edition is not supported. SAP HANA 1.0: SPS 12 and later. Note: To check whether an OS version is compatible with the SAP HANA version you want to use, see the SAP HANA Administration Guide.
Veeam Backup & Replication	Veeam Backup & Replication supports two latest versions of Veeam Plug-ins. For example, Veeam Backup & Replication 12.1 supports Veeam Plug-in 12.1 and 12. Keep in mind that if you use an earlier Veeam Plug-in build than the one that is included in the installation ISO file of your Veeam Backup & Replication version, it may not have all the features and bug fixes introduced in your Veeam Backup & Replication version. To learn more about the Veeam Plug-in builds included in Veeam Backup & Replication installation ISO files, see this Veeam KB article.
Network	Veeam Plug-in should be able to establish a direct IP connection to the Veeam Backup & Replication server. Thus, Veeam Plug-in cannot work with the Veeam Backup & Replication server that is located behind the NAT gateway.
