Linux Helper Host
Linux helper hosts can be deployed using the Veeam JeOS image by selecting the Infrastructure Appliance option. This enables certificate-based authentication, secure industry-standard communication protocols, and automated updates that are centrally controlled using the Veeam Backup & Replication server.
Note |
Component hardware requirements must be added to the Veeam JeOS system requirements to ensure that the assigned role has sufficient CPU and RAM resources. |
In addition to this option, you can deploy and manage backup proxies on supported operating systems of your choice.
OS | Version/Distribution |

Note: If you use RHEL or Rocky Linux version 9 or later, do not use Veeam Infrastructure Appliance, and mount disks with the NTFS file system, you must install the ntfs-3g package before adding the server to the backup infrastructure. |
IBM AIX | The following versions of the operating system are supported: IBM AIX 7.1 – 7.3 TL2 |
