Virtual Media Server / Backup Host + Hot Add OST over FC
Hi guys, do you know if OST over FC is supported for virtual Media Server/Backup Host in VMWare?
The only note I found about this is in the NetBackup-7x-in-virtual-environments_Feb_03_2016_update documentation:
Virtual media server
The NetBackup media server is supported within a virtual machine, under the limitations described in the “General guidelines for support.”
The following storage units are supported within a virtual machine:
■ Basic Disk
■ AdvancedDisk
■ Media Manager (tape storage units)
For details on the supported virtualization technologies, see Table 3.
■ Media Server Deduplication Pool (MSDP)
For MSDP requirements, see the NetBackup Deduplication Guide and the following deduplication tech note:
http://www.veritas.com/docs/000041111
■ PureDisk Deduplication Pool (PDDO) including the NetBackup 5000 SeriesAppliances.
■ OpenStorage, where the Data Interface is Ethernet.
For details on OpenStorage device compatibility, see the NetBackup Hardware Compatibility List
Could anyone confirm this?
Thanks!
Gabriel
Doesn't seem to be per the information you found.
