Hi!
Not really sure if this is right place to ask, but..
I am trying to use Veeam Backup for Red Hat Virtualization on oVirt 4.5.1.
I have been using it on version 4.4.10.7 and it works ok there.
On Veeam Release page it says that supported OS is RHV 4.4SP1 (oVirt 4.5).
When i try to do backup, this is what i get from Veeam backup.
No errors in vdsm.log and engine.log..

Are there any changes between version 4.5 and 4.5.1 that are preventing using this?
In general oVirt is always backward compatible. The only change that
may be a problem
is changing the user name from "admin@internal" to
"admin@ovirt@internalsso" but
this is already fixed in your example.
The failure:
A valid JSON document must be either an array or an object value.
Typically happens when you use "http" instead of "https" or similar
error
which is not related to the actual error.
Maybe try to enable DEBUG log level in Veeam. Seeing the actual http
request and http response from ovirt engine will probably tell what is the
real issue.
Maybe Yuri knows more about this.
