Permissions are dependent on the intended role of the Linux server. For more information, review this page of the user guide.
Linux servers registered with Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure must use Password or Certificate-based authentication methods and bash shell.
When Perl is required, the following Perl modules must be installed:
In most scenarios, these will be installed by default.
Starting with Veeam Backup & Replication 11, Perl is only required when using non-persistent data movers. Non-persistent data movers are used when a non-root account is used by Veeam Backup & Replication and the option Elevate account privileges automatically is not enabled.
Persistent data movers are required if the Linux server being added to Veeam Backup & Replication will function as a VMware Backup Proxy or a Hardened Repository.
Veeam Backup & Replication does not support SSH connections to a server where the user Veeam logs in as is configured to have tmux automatically started when logging in.
[user@rhel8 ~]$ sudo grep tmux /etc/bashrc
case "$name" in sshd|login) exec tmux ;; esac
While this specific example is from RHEL 8 using the NIST 800-171 security profile, which includes tmux automatic startup system-wide, the same concept applies to other distros.
To disable the automatic launching of tmux, edit the /etc/bashrc file and comment out the line with tmux. When complete, the bashrc should be as shown in the grep output below.
[user@rhel8 ~]$ sudo grep tmux /etc/bashrc
#case "$name" in sshd|login) exec tmux ;; esac
