Migration of Veeam One server is needed to install (upgrade) the product on a supported OS.Cause
The previous version of Veeam One was installed on one of the operating systems that is no longer supported by Veeam ONE 7.0Solution
Before you upgrade, be sure to perform a backup of the corresponding SQL database for Veeam ONE, so that you can easily go back to previous version in case of issues with upgrade.
To perform upgrade of Veeam ONE to version 7.0, you must be running version 6.0 or 6.5. Upgrade from earlier versions of Veeam ONE is not supported.
If Veeam ONE 6.x is installed on one of the operating systems that is no longer supported by Veeam ONE 7.0, use the upgrade procedure provided below:
Deployment with a local SQL Server:
1. Stop all Veeam ONE services.
2. If there were any changes made to Veeam registry configuration, export these registry hives manually:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam ONE Monitor\Service]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Reporter Enterprise]
3. Back up Veeam ONE database using SQL Management Studio.
4. Install all system prerequisites on the new Veeam ONE server. This procedure can be performed by running Veeam ONE setup wizard.
5. Download and install SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition or above on the new Veeam ONE server.
6. Restore the backed up Veeam ONE database (step 3) to the new server via SQL Management Studio.
7. Run Veeam ONE installation wizard on a supported OS and point to existing SQL Server instance on the database configuration step. Veeam ONE database will be upgraded automatically.
8. Launch Veeam ONE Monitor Client and retype connection account settings to all monitored hosts.
9. Import Veeam ONE configuration registry keys to the new server. This step is not required, if Veeam ONE installation is running with the default settings.
10. Restart Veeam ONE services.
Deployment with a remote SQL Server:
1. Stop all Veeam ONE services.
2. If there were any changes made to Veeam registry configuration, export these registry hives manually:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam ONE Monitor\Service]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Reporter Enterprise]
3. Back up Veeam ONE database using SQL Management Studio to be able to revert to the previous version of the database in case of issues with upgrade.
4. Run Veeam ONE installation wizard on a supported OS and point to the remote SQL Server instance on the database configuration step. Veeam ONE database will be upgraded automatically.
5. Launch Veeam ONE Monitor Client and retype connection account settings to all monitored hosts.
6. Import Veeam ONE configuration registry keys to the new server. This step is not required, if Veeam ONE installation is running with the default settings.
7. Restart Veeam ONE services.
