Challenge
This article documents how to manually update the GPG key for Veeam Appliances (i.e., Veeam Software Appliance, Veeam Infrastructure Appliance, and Veeam Hardened Repository deployed from the Veeam Infrastructure Appliance).
Generally, the new key should automatically be distributed to all appliances that have access to the Veeam repository. However, if an appliance does not have access to the repository (either directly, via a mirror, or via http_proxy), the GPG key will not be updated. After the installed GPG expires, that appliance will be unable to connect to the update repository.
On March 15, 2026, the GPG key used to sign the Veeam RPM packages expired.
