Identified - We are currently investigating some Exchange Mailbox backups providing the error “The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme ‘Anonymous’". This is believed to stem from a change to Microsoft's authentication requirements. We will share additional information once we are able.

Veeam Cloud Connect Scheduled Maintenance 15th April 2026 Apr 15, 2026 10:00-15:00 BST
This is a courtesy email to inform you in regards to some upcoming maintenance being carried out on our Veeam Cloud Connect Infrastructure.
WHEN: 15th April 2026 10am – 3pm
WHERE: Veeam Cloud Connect Infrastructure
WHY: We are applying our scheduled Windows Update patching to our Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure to keep our platform fully patched. We are also applying the latest updates to our VMware vCenter Server used for Veeam Cloud Connect Replication.
These are usually applied on the 3rd Wednesday of each month. I’m now going to start sending courtesy emails 48 hours before it’s implemented so all customers are aware of any errors that may show and can plan if required accordingly. In order to apply the updates, the Veeam services need to be stopped for a short time during the reboot process.
No action is required as a result of this notification.
If you have any questions relating to this event, please contact the Service Desk team, or speak to your account manager.
