Exporting and Importing Plug-In Settings

You can export a Veeam Plug-In configuration file and apply the plug-in settings to other servers.

Important

The password included in the configuration file is encrypted. Thus, after you import the configuration file, you must set the credentials manually in the Veeam Plug-In configuration wizard or using DB2ConfigTool.

To export the configuration file to another server, do the following:

  1. On the server where Veeam Plug-In is installed, navigate to the plug-in installation directory (/opt/veeam/VeeamPluginforDB2 on Linux or Unix, or %PROGRAMFILES%\Veeam\VeeamPluginforDB2 on Windows).
  2. Copy the veeam_config.xml file to the server where you want to configure the plug-in.
  3. Install Veeam Plug-In on the new server and place the copied XML file in the plug-in installation directory (/opt/veeam/VeeamPluginforDB2 on Linux or Unix, or %PROGRAMFILES%\Veeam\VeeamPluginforDB2 on Windows).
  4. Set new credentials to connect to the Veeam Backup & Replication server using one of the following commands depending on the OS you are using:
  • For Linux or Unix:

/opt/veeam/VeeamPluginforDB2/DB2ConfigTool --set-credentials "serv02\Administrator" password

  • For Microsoft Windows:

"C:\Program Files\Veeam\VeeamPluginforDB2\DB2ConfigTool.exe" --set-credentials "serv02\Administrator" password
