Good news everyone: As of release 5.0.2, veeamsnap (and the veeam agent by extension) support Linux kernels up to and including 5.16. The AUR build has been updated to use the new 5.0.2 source and I have tested on my own machine on 5.10 LTS. Snapshotting works as it should.

Thanks!

Current 6.0.0 seems to fail with some configurations. On my arch system all jobs failed due to "BIOS boot partition size exceeds limit" - even tho I only use folder level backup without snapshots. My boot partition is a 512M RAID1 spanned over two disks.

Old 5.0.2 is still available, you can downgrade using the archived PKGBUILD (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/?h=veeam&id=289c6d2cc44718d7a633059b4b8acab540217915). Configuration database in /var/lib/veeam/ can not be downgraded and must be restored using a pre 6.x backup or deleted and jobs reconfigured.

Additionally: 6.0 now uses blksnap instead of veeamsnap, so deps might need updating: https://github.com/veeam/blksnap

5.0.1.4493 pkgrel should be '1'

theokonos commented on 2021-10-08 14:19 (UTC)

Updated to 5.0.1.4493. Please cleanbuild to avoid sha256 checksum issues.

Note, veeam is working on experimental support for kernels above 5.8 and this is supposedly working -- however this package will remain on stable release for the time being.

If anyone is interested in packaging the experimental build and making a new AUR listing, please feel free: https://github.com/veeam/veeamsnap/issues/10

@k0ste -- good catch, thanks! The URL's been updated. For some reason I thought the veeam repo was only available over http.

please replace http url link to https

@StarTroop: you're correct -- veeamconfig (and the rest of the veeam applications) are intended to be run as root or a user with sudo privileges.

As for the autocomplete, the behavior on my system is the same. veeamconfig does not autocomplete unless I change my user to root.

StarTroop commented on 2021-07-25 11:11 (UTC)

Veeamconfig does not start without root privileges, even though my user is in the veeam group. I've logged out/in, rebooted, restarted veeamservice, but no dice. Furthermore, veeamconfig is not autocompleted in my terminal (xfce4-terminal with bash). Are these bugs or am I missing some configuration?

Many thanks for the agent. Now I dont have to setup another backup solution :) #voted

@k0ste oh! thank you for that. I bumped it to 8 since that's the number of changes I've made to the PKGBUILD/other files since upgrading the base package to v5. Should be reflected in your AUR manager now.
