More Information
Alternatively, you may manually collect client or Cloud connect management agent logs from the following location on the managed machine:
C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Veeam Availability Console\Log\Agent
This directory is the same for both the client agent and the Cloud Connect agent, however, the log files themselves differ. The engineer assigned to your case will inform you of which agent logs are needed for troubleshooting.
