Requirements

To upgrade to Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV 6.1, download the installer below and run it on the Veeam Backup & Replication server that manages the AHV Backup Appliance(s). The Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV 6.1 Plug-In must be installed before updating the Nutanix AHV Backup Appliance.

You can check the AHV Backup Appliance Version by clicking the gear icon at the top-right corner of the AHV Backup Appliance web console and selecting the Appliance Settings tab.

After updating the Nutanix AHV Backup Appliance, the version number will be 6.1.0.14.

Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV 6.1 only supports integration with Veeam Backup & Replication version 12.2.

Resolved Issues

  • Resolved timeout issues introduced in Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV 6.0 that occured between the AHV appliance and Veeam Backup & Replication server.
  • Fixed Protection Domain backup job failures.
  • Improved UI job session error messages when the Nutanix cluster lacks the required iSCSI services IP definition.
  • Corrected an issue where the backup job storage optimization and compression settings were incorrectly saved in the Veeam Backup & Replication UI.
  • Addressed a mismatched certificate thumbprint condition between the AHV appliance and Nutanix cluster.
  • Fixed an issue with the upgrading Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV v5.x appliances, caused by the password hashing method.
  • Resolved intermittent Nutanix API processing failures due to cluster load or other transient conditions.

Known Issues

  • When using Instant Recovery to restore a VM to Nutanix AOS 6.10, it may fail to boot if the VM's Guest OS utilized UEFI.
    To resolve this, modify the Instant Recovered VM to enable UEFI boot at the VM level, as documented in the "Acropolis CLI" section of Nutanix KB9400.
    Note: Other restore modes are not affected. This issue will be resolved in an upcoming release.
