Veeam 13 & SIMS\FMS Backup

[markmdh]

Hi all

 

Went to update Veeam to V13 - and a box pops up saying that Application-aware processing is disabled in V13.  I know this is crucial to a successful SIMS backup, but don't want to upgrade if it's going to cause issues further down the line.

 

Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts\solutions (And apologies if I've posted in the wrong group!)

 

Thanks

Looks like it's still in the guide: Enable Application-Aware Processing - Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide

 

[V13] System Requirements for our 2025 release - R&D Forums

Application-aware processing for virtual machines
Application-consistent backups with application-aware processing will be supported for 64-bit guest OS only (crash-consistent host-level VM backup remains possible regardless of guest OS type).
Windows Server: dropping support for Windows Server 2008 and 2012. Minimum supported version for application-aware processing is 2012 R2.
Windows Client: dropping support for Windows 7 and Windows 8.x. Minimum supported versions for application-aware processing of Windows 10 are 1507 for LTSB/LTSC channels and 22H2 for GA channel. Minimum supported version for Windows 11 is 22H2.
Linux: same as Veeam Agent for Linux below.

Cheers @willtech 🙂

 

Guess I may have mis-interpreted the error.  I'll have another look this evening..
