Veeam Agent for Linux is a tool that backs up physical Linux systems such as a workstation, a server or machines in the public cloud. This tool creates image-based backups that are stored in VBK format, the same as in Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows. Veeam Agent for Linux comes with its own snapshot and change block tracking (CBT) driver that allows for creating incremental backups without rescanning.
Veeam Agent for Linux use requirements include:

• CPU: x86/x64
• Kernel: 2.6.32 or higher
• OS: 32 and 64-bit versions of:
• Debian 6.x-8.x
• Ubuntu 10.04-16.10
• RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux 6.x-7.x
• Fedora 23, 24
• openSUSE 11.3-13.x, Leap 42.1
• SLES 11 SP1 – 12

The installation has become much easier since the beta: no more installs of manual packages! You are now able to install Veeam Agent for Linux and update it via the Veeam Repository. Be sure to check out the release notes for more installation instructions.
After you install the product, you have two options to interact with it: Via a step-by-step wizard or through the command line.

Interesting Article. As some of you might remember, I wanted to do this about a month or so ago. More pressing projects have taken over, but maybe I'll try this tonight

IMPORTANT NOTES:
 - Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:

   Your key file has been saved at:
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/bookstack.aaronstuder.com/privkey.pem
   Your cert will expire on 2018-05-22. To obtain a new or tweaked
   version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot again
   with the "certonly" option. To non-interactively renew *all* of
   your certificates, run "certbot renew"
 - Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
   configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
   secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
   also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
   making regular backups of this folder is ideal.
