vSphere 5.1 is out since weeks and until know no statement of Symantec which version is or will support the latest VMware product.

Any updates her?

Yes I know the SCL!

I'm afraid there's no update available yet.

For what it's worth - we're succesfully backing up a vsphere 5.1 infrastructure.  We do full VM backups, with GRT enabled.  Backup Exec 2012 SP1

I asked support what the situation was I was told they don't know if or when backup exec 2012 will support vsphere 5.1 I mean there really should be some official word by now.

Just FYI,

I was having some trouble with Incremental Backups but I think I determined it had to do with VMFS 5.58

I had upgraded some of my datastores to it when I upgraded to vSphere 5.1 and some other datastores on VMFS 5.54 seemed to backup ok.  I'm in the process of going back to 5.54 to make sure all my backups run correctly.

Hopefully they will officially support it with a Live Update.
