@angrydok Nice to see the built in email notifications. Since most of mine point to Veeam B&R repositories, i already had that, but I know a lot of people use it stand alone.

@aaronstuder Thanks! Corrected

@JaredBusch
True. VBR users have the global email reporting from v1, mainly this feature was requested by the end users without VBR repo.

You may like new weekly scheduling options (including the resume of the missed scheduled backup) and of course, there are more improvements.

I got Veeam One 9 Update 1 installing right now, thanks to a minor issue with random flapping on an esxi host. Next will be Veeam Endpoint. Any chance you can hook me up with B&R 9 Update 1 and make my Veeam suite fully up to date?

We have Veeam Endpoint 1.1.2.119. How do we upgrade it to 1.5? Reinstall? Will that break the backup sequence?

I just ran the installer and it upgraded the existing installation, in place.

Edit:
Couldn't get the app to uninstall or reinstall, even after blowing everything away manually. Rebooted and it installed fine. Probably could have done that from the beginning and not wasted a bunch of time.

@wrx7m Glad to hear! I know that VBRs Update 1 is available at support side right now and will be GA soon. Feel free to open a support case and request it.

angrydok

@LAH3385 Please follow the manual upgrade procedure if you want to install update now. New version will be published to auto update server approximately after two weeks of pilot deployments. It safe to upgrade. Backup history and all your settings should be carefully.

@Danp You can open a support case let our support team investigate it.
