From the 6.5.6 release notes at ftp://exftpp.symantec.com/pub/support/products/NetBackup_Enterprise_Server/341279.pdf
(ET2003460) Support for FlashBackup in a Microsoft Cluster (MSCS)
environment
Beginning in NetBackup 6.5 GA, the use of FlashBackup in a Microsoft Cluster
(MSCS) environment is supported, with the following limitation: Raw partition
restores can only be performed when the disk being restored is placed in
extended maintenance mode or removed from the MSCS resource group.
Note: Earlier versions of MSCS (such as those versions that were shipped with
Windows versions before Windows 2003 SP1) do not allow extended
maintenance mode functionality. If the cluster does not support placing disks
in extended maintenance mode, it is still possible to perform raw restores to
an alternate, non-shared disk.

To others on the forum - I thought that to use the SAN to backup you had to set up the Fiber Transport. (of which you have to have the correct HBA card on your server)
If you just setup a SAN media server and zoned the tape drives to the server - you were not really using the SAN for backup. The data still goes to the Media server then to the tape drive, that it does not go from the disk directly to the tape drive.
Am I confused on this?
