Hi Thiago Ribeiro,
Thank for your helping!
When I run backup and restore, How can I show NetBackup Frozen Image Service process running?
And more, plan: 1 master server, 1 media server (as vmware host backup, run windows/linux) and 1 esxi server, 1 vcenter server, media server can access to LUN (is datastore contain virtual machine on esxi). When I backup, what doese media server (windows) use technology can read data directory from LUN and media server (linux) use technology? How I can check it?
NetBackup VxMS logging logging will reveal what is going on when NetBackup calls the VADP and other such VMware APIs:

...and maybe search for other "NetBackup VxMS" articles and tech notes.

There are several sets/groups of "API" functions written and produced by VMware for other third parties (like Veritas) to build in to their applications (like NetBackup). These API sets from VMware are distributed in the form of a VDDK. And it is the VDDK which contains multiple API sets, one of which is VADP. And so, NetBackup is able to read/write the VMFS datastore LUNs directly, because NetBackup calls the approporiate VADP routines from the linked VDDK embedded within the NetBackup binaries.
