Upgrading Plug-In for SAP HANA
Periodically, Veeam releases a new version of Veeam Backup & Replication that contains new features and bug fixes. The release package also contains a new version of Veeam Plug-Ins.
If you want to upgrade Veeam Plug-In, note that Veeam Backup & Replication must be the same or later than the version of Veeam Plug-In. If you want to use the latest functionality, you must upgrade both Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Plug-In to the latest version. After the upgrade, you don't need to re-run the Veeam Plug-In configuration wizard, the plug-in configuration files will be preserved.
