Antivirus Exclusions for Veeam Service Provider Console
Purpose
This article documents antivirus exclusions that may be created to reduce the impact that antivirus software has on the functionality of Veeam Service Provider Console. These antivirus exclusions may be applied to the Windows built-in antivirus or third-party antivirus software.
Note: Antivirus will not always cause Veeam Service Provider Console functions to fail; antivirus software may also negatively impact performance.
