Connecting Veeam Backup & Replication Servers
To collect information about your backup infrastructure and track the efficiency of data protection, you must configure the connection to one or more Veeam Backup & Replication servers.
Before you begin, make sure that:
- Your Veeam Backup & Replication version and edition are supported. For details, see section Integration with Veeam Backup & Replication of Veeam ONE Deployment Guide.
- All necessary ports are open. For details, see section Ports of the Veeam ONE Deployment Guide.
For this scenario, you will connect a Veeam Backup & Replication server. Optionally, you can also connect Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager to monitor all backup servers federated under Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager in a similar way.
To connect Veeam Backup & Replication server:
- Open Veeam ONE Client.
For more information, see Accessing Veeam ONE Client.
- In the main menu, click Add Server.
The Add Server wizard will open.
- At the first step of the wizard, select Veeam Backup & Replication.
- At the Connection step of the wizard, specify DNS name or IP address of the server and select the Veeam Backup & Replication server role. If you do not want to install Veeam ONE Agent, clear the Install Veeam ONE Agent check box.
- At the Credentials step of the wizard:
- Click Add.
- In the Add Credentials window, specify credentials of the user account for connecting to the server in the DOMAIN\USERNAME format.
The provided credentials will be used to connect the backup server and all managed servers in the backup infrastructure.
- At the Summary step of the wizard, review the connection details and click Finish.
