Can backups use SMBv2 or v3?

vRagner 7.6.

 

I need to connect to a repository on a server which has had SMBv1 disabled.  The minute they did that, my backups from VA all began to fail.

 

Is there any reason we cannot use SMBv2?

    Hello Bradycl,

    Currently, the VA does not support SMB2. It defaults to SMB1, we're currently investigating this. While this 'defect' is being investigated, if it is an option - use NFS repositories (Windows and most NAS devices have support for this) if you cannot re-enable SMB1.

    Thank you for the speedy response! We can divert to a temporary location, but I would love to know if a patch or new VA version becomes available.
