FCoE
Does any of the Netbackup appliances support FCoE? I suppose no because it comes only with HBA cards but I need someone to confirm it.
Thanks in advance.
You are right : Not supported with the 5220. See http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC5600
However FCOE adapter are in general supported with Netbackup - See Page 205 i the Netbackup 7.x HCL
The NetBackup Shared Storage Option (SSO) hardware support model for Storage Area Network (SAN) components is an open model. In other words, all Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) converged network adapters (CNA), Fibre Channel (FC) host bus adapters (HBA), switches, bridges, and routers are supported in a SAN environment. This means that if a FCoE or FC component is causing a problem, Symantec will work with the component vendor in an attempt to resolve the problem, but resolution is not guaranteed. Symantec and most hardware vendors listed are members of TSANet
