Last week I upgraded a VCenter Server from version 4.0 to the newest version 4.1. Version 4.1 now needs a 64bit operating system (yes, it's a must now) and therefore I reinstalled the physical server with the 64bit version of Win 2003.
I started the VCenter Server inventory from scratch again, adding all the physical ESX and ESXi servers to it. And I wondered, if Veeam Backup & Replication 4.1 would correctly work again... the VM's names didn't change so if it works by vm object name, there shouldn't be a problem.But no. The Veeam jobs didn't run anymore and ended with an error: Analyzing object "VM-Name" Object VM-Name not found. There are no objects to backup What can be done about that is to go into the properties of each job and reselect the VM's to backup. This adds the new so called refID from the new inventory of VCenter Server into the Veeam database and should now communicate with the correct VM. Important Update 20.07.2010:
Even though some manual adjustments were made in the job properties and even in the SQL database, the jobs won't run. After having contacted Veeam support, the answer is simple: Veeam Backup & Replication in version 4.1 is not compatible with vSphere vCenter Server 4.1!
