To avoid negotiation problems between Veeam Backup & Replication and a Linux server, the latter should use ciphers, Key Exchange (KEX) algorithms, and MAC algorithms compatible with SSH libraries supported by Veeam Backup & Replication:

However, if you plan to restore Microsoft Exchange items from the Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager UI, you must install Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager on the domain member server from the Microsoft Active Directory forest in which Microsoft Exchange mailboxes are located. The machine on which you plan to install Veeam Backup & Replication does not necessarily need to be a domain member. Note that you cannot install Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager on a machine running Microsoft Windows Server Core. You can assign roles of a backup proxy, backup repository, WAN accelerator, Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure components and tape infrastructure components to machines running Microsoft Windows Server Core.

Backup infrastructure component roles can be co-installed. If possible, install Veeam Backup & Replication and its components on dedicated machines.

We do not recommend to install Veeam Backup & Replication and its components on mission-critical machines in the production environment such as vCenter Server, Domain Controller, Microsoft Exchange Server, Small Business Server/ Windows Server Essentials and so on.
