Deployment
The default installation package of Veeam Backup & Replication does not provide features that allow you to protect HPE Morpheus VM Essentials resources. To be able to add HPE Morpheus VM Essentials servers and workers to the backup infrastructure, you must install Veeam Plug-in for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials on the backup server.
Tip |
If you use a remote Veeam Backup & Replication console, you do not need to install Veeam Plug-in for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials on the workstation where the remote Veeam Backup & Replication console is deployed. |
