How to configure antivirus exclusions to prevent interaction with Veeam Service Provider Console
Challenge
This article documents antivirus exclusions that have been found to help prevent Veeam Service Provider Console from blocking for proper functioning.
Cause
In some instances, antivirus can prevent certain executables, processes, or agents from being correctly deployed or leveraged from the Veeam Server.
Solution
Antivirus Exclusions:
Folders that need to be excluded on Veeam Service Provider Console server and Web UI:
- C:\Program Files\Veeam
- C:\ProgramData\Veeam
- C:\Windows\Veeam
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Veeam
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Veeam
Folders that need to be excluded on computers with VAC management agents:
- C:\Program Files\Veeam
- C:\ProgramData\Veeam
- C:\Windows\Veeam
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Veeam
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Veeam
- \\localhost\admin$\Veeam
- \\localhost\admin$\Veeam\Availability Console\Agent for Windows\VeeamAgentWindows.exe
Files:
- VeeamAgentWindows.exe
- ManagementAgent.exe
- VAC.CommunicationAgent.x64.msi
- VAC.CommunicationAgent.x86.msi
Due to the complex nature of antivirus software, some additional exclusions may be needed.
