Hi, i have a probe end a br vm on 2 differente vms with two different username password and hostname. May someone help me to get PRTG Sensor working in a configuration like this?

If I run this command on the probe: PS C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\Custom Sensors\EXEXML> .\PRTG-VeeamBRStats.ps1 192.168.1.121 i have this result:

C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\Custom Sensors\EXEXML\PRTG-VeeamBRStats.ps1 : Failed to connect to Veeam

Hi @martinorob ,

You can try these workarounds:

• install a probe on the Veeam server and run the service as a user with Veeam permissions

• user identical, local users on both boxes with the required permissions in veeam and used by the PRTG Sensor configuration

Moved Probe from Vcenter to Veeam vms. Thanks
