If you then add another backup server with a different type of license installed, Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager will install the Veeam Cloud Connect service provider license on this backup server.

Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager will obtain information about the license and save it to its database. Keep in mind that you cannot use the same Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager server to manage backup servers that require different licenses, for example, a backup server of a Veeam Cloud Connect service provider and a regular backup server used to process Veeam Backup & Replication jobs.įor example, you add to Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager a backup server with the Veeam Cloud Connect service provider license installed.

If the licenses do not coincide, the license on the Veeam backup server is automatically updated with that on the Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager server. When Veeam Enterprise Manager replicates databases from backup servers, it also synchronizes license data: checks if the license installed on the Veeam backup server coincides with the license installed on the Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager server. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager collects information about the type of license installed on Veeam backup servers connected to it and the number of instances in the license. When you run a job, Veeam Backup & Replication uses a number of instances required for each type of protected workloads (for per-instance licenses) or applies a license to the protected hosts (for per-socket license). The license must have a total number of instances that is sufficient to protect machines (servers and workstations) on which you. If you plan to use Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows with Veeam Backup & Replication, you must install a license in Veeam Backup & Replication or Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager. The Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure requires license instances to process backup and replication jobs.
