Uninstalling Plug-In

Before you uninstall AWS Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication, it is recommended to remove all connected backup appliances from the backup infrastructure. If you keep the backup appliances in the backup infrastructure, the following will happen:

• You will be able to see information on snapshots of EC2 instances, RDS resources, backups of EFS file systems and backups of VPC configurations in the Veeam Backup & Replication console. However, you will not be able to perform any operations with these snapshots and backups.

• You will be able to see information on image-level backups of EC2 and DB instances and perform data recovery operations using these backups. However, restore of entire EC2 instances to AWS will start working as described in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide, section How Restore to Amazon EC2 Works.

• You will be able to see information on backup policies. However, you will only be able to remove these policies from the Veeam Backup & Replication console.

1. Log in to the backup server using an account with local Administrator permissions.
2. Open the Start menu, navigate to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features.
3. In the program list, click AWS Plug-in for Veeam Backup & Replication and click Uninstall.
