No version of Backup Exec supports FreeBSD. Refer to the Software Compatibility List of Backup Exec 2012: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH175581

You could however, try to install the Remote Agent for Linux/Unix Servers(RALUS) by referring to the following link( http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH46461 )and see if it works.

Hello momaymm@hotmail.com,

Please know that even if a suggested workaround works it is still an unsupported configuration therefore it can break anytime.  Symantec is in no way responsible for offering any support for this.

Thanks

Why on old serve can backup guest FreeBSD ?   

 

I use login user of Vcenter administrator to walk access guest.

When something is not supported it means that it has not been tested. If it works, you are lucky. If it doesn't, then you are on your own
