Before You Begin

Before you create a virtual lab, check the following prerequisites:

• A valid license for Enterprise edition of Veeam Backup & Replication must be installed on the backup server.
• The ESXi host on which you plan to deploy a virtual lab must have a VMkernel interface. Otherwise the vPower NFS datastore will not be mounted on the ESXi host. For more information, see Veeam vPower NFS Service.
• If you plan to use the advanced multi-host networking mode for VM replicas verification, you must configure a DVS beforehand. For more information, see Advanced Multi-Host Virtual Labs.
