Hardware support for Itaniums

Good day, Can anybody tell me offhand whether or not NetBackup supports Itaniums? To do deduplication...does it need to be done to disk first before sending it off to tape, and is this automate...

    Until recently I had a HPUX 11.23 IA64 Master server and a handful of 11.23 IA64 media servers. running NB 6.5.4.
    So yes supporting Itaniums. They keep adding support for OS's on IA64. eg SLES 11 was just added
    But always check in here with the latest OS Compatibility matrix (Jan 2010) for NB 6.x and might as well review for NB 7.0 also at this URL

    Just check the Operating System and it will tell you if it supports the OS on IA64 as Master, Media Server and/or Client. Some may only support Client at the least. ie OpenVMS
