***At this time, Sherweb recommends our Veeam customers to remain on Version 12 of the VCC and VSPC Software. We are in the process of upgrading our Veeam services to the latest 13th version.

 

 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Requirements

  • Only users with the one of the following roles assigned can proceed with this procedure: Service Provider Global Administrator, Service Provider Administrator.

     

  • Understand the differences between each edition of Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR). For more information, see this article: https://www.veeam.com/veeam_data_platform_feature_comparison_ds.pdf

Notes

  • It is not recommended to share the same licence across multiple companies or servers.

    Each Veeam server should have its own license as using a single key for multiple installations negatively impacts the ability to suspend, revoke or resize a specific key/installation from the VCSP Pulse interface.
