NetBackup Instant Recovery for Vmware

Hi Folks,

This is new feature in 7.6.

When using IRV NetBackup uses NBFSD and NFS export to create a Vmware datastore containing the virtual machine.

After power on the VM can be migrated to the final datastore via Vmware storage vMotion.

Meanwhile all changes are stored in a temporary datastore and are consolidated after successful vMotion.

Can some one elaborate more on this...I watched video for this prestened by George Winter (I should understand when prestedn by him :).....

When the backup is taken on disk...does backup create snap same as that of datastore for the VM..elaborate pls...
