Veeam Virtualization Extensions Web UI

Note

In case you are installing the Veeam UI on the same computer as the VE Service, log off the server after the VE Service installation, then log on again.

In case you are installing the Veeam UI remotely with Windows PowerShell, close the remote PowerShell session and initiate a new one.

This is required to activate the new Veeam Virtualization Extensions Users local group. Otherwise, the Veeam UI setup will fail with the User is not allowed to access the Veeam Virtualization Extensions Service error.

Open the command prompt and run the setup file UI.msi using the command of the following format:

msiexec.exe [/L*v! "<path_to_log>"] /qn /I "<path_to_msi>" [INSTALLDIR="<path_to_installdir>"] EMUI_EM_SERVER="<Veeam_Virtualization_Extensions _server_address>" EMUI_EM_SERVER_PORT="<Veeam_Virtualization_Extensions _port>" [EMUI_WEB_SITE_PORT="<website_port>"]

The following command-line options are used to run the setup file:

Option	Parameter	Required	Description
/L	*v! logfile	No	Produces installation log file with the verbose output. Specify a full path to the log file as the parameter value. Any setup log file produced during the previous installation will be cleared. Example: /L*v! ”C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Setup\Temp\Logs\UISetup.txt”
/q	n	Yes	Sets user interface level to None.
/I	setup file	Yes	Installs the Veeam UI component. Specify a full path to the setup file as the parameter value. Example: /I “C:\Veeam\UI.msi”

EMUI_EM_SERVER_PORT	port	Yes	Specify a TCP port that has been selected for the VE Service. Example: EMUI_EM_SERVER_PORT=”8084”
