I've done a few searches and checked the compatibility guide, to see if I can install an NBU master on a KVM guest. The master will not be a media server. The plan is to have 2, metro-clustered physical servers (with replicated SAN storage) dedicated to host NB master VM, and use in-house failover tools to failover NB master to DR.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

General guidelines for support
Veritas provides support for NetBackup within a virtual environment. For the purpose
of this document, a “virtual environment” is defined as: any on-site, off-site, or public

guest operating system.
NetBackup has an open support policy for virtualization platforms, as follows:
■ NetBackup is qualified on physical configurations.
■ If the same configuration can be virtualized, it is supported without explicit
qualification on the virtualization platform (unless otherwise noted in this
document).
The published NetBackup software and hardware compatibility listings reflect this
support policy. The listings are available here:
