Backup Exec 21 VMware Instant Recovery using OpenStorage (Quantum Dxi)

Good Day Everyone,

Current setup:

  • Using VMware
  • BE 21 (OS windows Server 2019) VM
  • OpenStorage (Quantum Dxi) Configure as VM

I just want to ask if is possible to use a Instant Recovery with the OST(openstorage)? I already tried to use IRT using Dedupe Disk of BE and it was successful, but for using OST i don't have any idea or technotes.

Already try to test restore it to Desktop of BE Server as a VMDK file and it was successful.

Also when im trying to create a forever Incremental job and setup a storage it can't detect the OST. Forever Incremetal is not also suppported using OST?

  • No to both your questions.  OST devices are not supported.  You need to use a BE dedupe folder.
