system backup of Veritas Cluster Server

IHAC who wants to take a system backup of 3 physical servers running RHEL 6 configured with Veritas Cluster Server. The nodes share a FC SAN disk. Is it possible to take a system backup of this kind of configuration? I don't think VSR would be cluster-aware but you could possibly take system backup of each node and restore them individually. Seems like there's a lot of caveats in this case though...I appreciate the feedback.

    That's correct, VSR currently does not support linux cluster environments.

    Sorry, I rechecked the VSR18 SCL and it does mention this in the comment section:

    • VSR Linux Edition does not support Cluster and Cluster Continuous Replication environments.

    So I guess the answer would be No and maybe direct them to NBU or some other solution. Correct me if I'm wrong.
