Challenge
When attempting to add Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes to Veeam Backup & Replication, the option for Kasten does not appear in the Add Server options.
Cause
This issue may occur if:
- The Veeam Kubernetes Service is not running and needs to be started.
- The Kasten Plug-In is not installed.
This possibility is less common as the plug-in is now automatically installed alongside Veeam Backup & Replication.
Solution
- Connect to the Veeam Backup Server.
- Close the Veeam Backup & Replication Console.
- Verify that the Veeam Kubernetes Service service is present and running.
- If the service is missing, mount the Veeam Backup & Replication ISO, and install the VeeamKasten plugin packages from "X:\Plugins\Kasten\"
- If the service is present but not running, Start the service.
Note: If the service fails to start with "Error 1064", review KB4427.
- Reopen the Veeam Backup & Replication Console and check if the option to add Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes is now avaialble.
