/Hello,

The initial code for REAR integration with Veeam Backup Agent for Linux has been commited.
We´ve updated rear/usr/share/rear/conf/default.conf with BACKUP=VEEAM option, for Veeam support.
Some additional variables have to be specified like:

  • Hostname of the Veeam VBRServer from which we want to restore our data
    VBRSRV=

  • IP Address of our Veeam VBRServer
    VBRADDR=

  • Specify a username which has the role to register a host to the Veeam VBRServer (Veeam Restore Operator)
    VBRUSR=

  • Password for the Veeam Restore Operator Role user to register
    VBRPASSWD=

  • Domain is mainly used for Veeam VBR Server registration, joined to a windows active directory domain. If no domain is used, leave the field blank
    VBRDOMAIN=

In order to register the veeam linux agent to the veeam vbrserver, we need to have a veeam user with the role "Veeam Restore Operator".
Detailed information on how the procedure works can be found in the rear/usr/share/rear/restore/VEEAM/default/500_restore.sh script

Please let us know if this is okay, or any changes should be done.

Regards,
Andreas
