Hello, Who can help to confirm whether the Linux physical machine can be supported by the NBU8.2 Direct P2V? Thanks in advance. PS. I know that the Windows-based physical machine is supported by the NBU Direct P2V since NBU7.6 version.

Unfortunately no support yet for Linux for NetBackup BMR Direct :

.

But I would have thought that if you can achieve a supported BMR aware physical client backup then you should be able to P2V (well B2V) manually, i.e. a form of dissimilar BMR recovery - of course you would also have to carefully check version interop and compatibility matrices :

...whereas I think (edit) that you will also need to see this re Dissimilar System Restore (DSR)) :
