Hello,

Is NetBackup Cloud Catalyst supported when installed in a Virtual Machine instead of using a phisical machine / Appliance , obviously respecting the requirements of NBU Deduplication Guide (as Linux Operating instance , minimum local chache of 4 TB etc..) ?

 

Thank You

Stefano

I looked into this last week and the only requirement is that the msdp media server you build must match the specs of a 5240 model G

Hello,

Cloud Storage (thus CloudCatalyst, too) is not supported generally with Virtual Appliances:

In addition to the requirements in Dedupe Guide, please see the hardware requirements in this TN:

https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100042452

CloudCatalyst setup requires a CPU with SSE4.2 instruction set. Older CPU such as AMD Opteron 2350 series and Intel Xeon E5335 do not support SSE4.2 instructions.
