Update Summary

Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1 release notes cover installation, upgrade, and platform-specific limitations for Windows. The release is available starting July 29, 2026 and includes important upgrade guidance, deprecations, and known issues.

Update Details

Security

  • Security hardening and access-control guidance for upgrade and deployment, including required permissions, MFA, and certificate handling.
  • SSH private keys generated with DSA are no longer supported for features using SSH private key authentication.
  • The legacy Agent UI customization mechanism based on registry keys is deprecated and no longer supported starting with version 13.1.

Known Issues

  • Windows installation may fail on systems configured with Turkish or other non-ASCII locales due to PostgreSQL 17 locale handling.
  • Port 443 is now required for Web UI operations and may block upgrade if already in use.
  • Migration from a Microsoft Windows installation of Veeam Backup & Replication to Veeam Software Appliance is not supported in 13.1.
  • A configuration backup (.bco) created on v13.0.1 cannot be restored on 13.1 if an Entra ID backup exists.

Hints

  • Download the latest ISO because it includes the latest cumulative patch.
  • Before upgrading, complete a configuration backup with encryption enabled so stored credentials are included.
  • After upgrading, remote servers may need to be updated through the automated upgrade wizard.
  • If using Enterprise Manager, upgrade it before upgrading Veeam Backup & Replication.
  • Existing Azure Restore Proxies must be removed and redeployed after upgrading to 13.1.
