Hello
Are you using VMWare as a Virtual server ?
If so then Backup Exec for Windows Servers may be used to backup files on VMWare virtual servers via network shares. Please note the Backup Exec Remote Agent for Windows is not supported with VMWare.
The VMWare virtual server is not supported as a media server and no Agents or Options for Backup Exec for Windows Servers are supported in VMWare environments.
The VMware product itself provides transparency to the operating systems, applications, and middleware including VERITAS Backup Exec for Windows Servers, that operate above it.
We hope this helps.
Regards
