Flashbackups and Encryption
There is a business need to encrypt the backups that are currently being taken at my place of work. A lot of the backups are Flashbackups and I was wondering if anyone had tried this before?
Currently running Netbackup 6.5.4 and think I read somewhere that encrpyting Flashbackups was not possible.
Has anyone implemented encryption with Flashbackup?
Dont think that's possible, FlashBackup is a block level backup of the File System. Can't encrypt a block. Also dont think it will be worth much without the catalog information, so its basically encrypted anyways :)
