Can I Upgrade Veeam 10 to Veeam 11?

KB ID 0001758

Problem

People are always ‘a bit twitchy‘ about upgrading their backup software. Mines on my test network so I’m a little more cavalier about diving in and clicking next. So when you want to Upgrade Veeam 10 to Veeam 11, peoples main concerns are;

  1. Will I lose my backup / replication jobs?
  2. Will I need to rescan backup repositories?

Remember Veeam keeps all its data in a database, so your configs should remain unaffected but just to prove it.
