          Ah ha, it only shows up in the "category" screen, not on the unread or recent screens.

              I don't think having Veeam on another drive makes sense. The data store, yes, but not the application.

                1. No issues with that. Just make sure that the VB&R installation is protected. You can ensure it with the use of configuration backup.
                2. How big your infrastructure is? We typically recommend using full SQL for infrastructures bigger than 1000 VMs.. Otherwise, SQL express is more than enough.

                Thanks.

                    I agree with @Vladimir-Eremin about the config backup. Make sure you are doing this daily. I recently had to restore a configuration backup because I rebuilt my Veeam server, and it saved me a ton of setup time. As for the SQL install, I think Express makes the most sense if you can do it. That way your Veeam server is self-contained, and you don't have to worry about having your Veeam server and a separate SQL Server up to be able to restore from backup in an emergency.

                      A small trick regarding usage of configuration backup.

                      If you have a network share, you can create a share disk, map it to instance of VB&R and use as a target repository for configuration backup. Should any disaster situation happen (VB&R server goes down, for instance), all you would need to do is to install Veeam on any other virtual/physcial machine and import previously backed up configuration.

                      Thanks.

                        Or, if you have the free space available, make a replica of your Veeam server and a domain controller, then put them in the same location as your backup.

                          Thanks you all for your responses 🙂

                          I'll definitely be configuring the Configuration Backup as suggested.

                          @alexntg I saw that. 🙂 Double thanks to you 😛 I posted in two places for a wider catchment of opinions... and I'm a bit impatient sometimes.
