Installing/running Backup Exec in a VMware NSX environment

Hi,

I don't have all the details but a customer is asking if it's possible to install Backup Exec into a VMware NSX environment. Do we or does anybody have experience installing / running Backup Exec in such an environment? They say they don't have the time to do any PoC so they want to know whatever we know to make a decision. Specifically, they're asking the following:

1. Will Backup Exec run in an NSX environmet?

2. As long as they meet the installation requirements for Backup Exec, there shouldn't be much of an issue correct?

3. Any specific settings required at the NSX side? Any reboot required?

Thanks.
