Hi Mohamed,<br />
<br />
I think the same as Jose [MCSE] Ortega C. &nbsp;If you configured correctly, you should not have problem. I have some clients using Veeam and Windows Server Backup...and it works correctly.<br />

Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
I have exchange 2013 environment with 3 mailboxes servers and 1 DAG that include several databases and it is being backed up everyday (Full Backup) using Symantec Backup Exec and i have no issue on it.<br />
<br />
We are now testing new solution which is veam and they need install their agent on the exchange servers and schedule a backup job to be started after symantec finish for the sake of PoC!!<br />
<br />
The ask is if we install the 2 solutions agents on the servers and scheduled 2 jobs that will take full backup from the databases, is that will harm the mailbox databases or what will happen with the logs?<br />
<br />
Any clue on what issues i will face?

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
