Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization 1a may be deployed as a new appliance, or an existing Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization 1.0 (version 1.0.1488) appliance can be upgraded.

After deploying or upgrading to Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization 1a,  the appliance's build number will be 1.1.11.
 

Environment Requirements:

• Veeam Backup & Replication 11a (build 11.0.1.1261) or newer.
• Red Hat Virtualization 4.4.8 or newer.
• DNS resolution of Veeam Backup & Replication server, Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization server, Red Hat Virtualization manager (oVirt), and all RHEV hosts.

For a complete list of system requirements and known issues, review the Release Notes.

• Improved incremental backup processing with CBT active, reducing the occurrence of full scans during backup.
• The port field has been removed from the virtualization manager settings as it was not needed.

This release also includes all features present in Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization 1.0.

• Resolved issue which caused configuration restore to fail with the exception:

  Padding is invalid and cannot be removed
  

• Changing credentials for the connection to Veeam Backup & Replication required the RHV service to be restarted or the RHV appliance to be rebooted. In 1a, the credentials can be updated on the fly.
