VEEAM and Plant SCADA

Question

Hi, 
 
 I was wondering if anyone had experience with the usage of VEEAM on AVEVA Plant SCADA environments. 
 
 Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, 
 
 Thanks, 
 JSA

Just repeating my reply to you on Schneider Forum for the benefit of others here: 
 I've heard of other customers using Nutanix on Plant SCADA environments. 
 The important thing to be aware of is what licensing method you are using. If you are using FLM (from Plant SCADA 2020 R2 / 8.30 and earlier) or AEL (from Plant SCADA 2023 / 8.40 and later) they are both sensitive to snapshots being taken. The most robust solution in those cases is to use Sentinel hardware dongle with AnywhereUSB product. Also some care must be made to ensure runtime is not impacted (mostly CPU and disk access) while backups are being made. Hope others in the community can share their experience with VEEAM with you.
