My system use Netbackup newest version 7.5.
I see your document that Netbackup 7.5 support solaris 11, oh sorry that my mistake,
With this Netbackup version Can I backup OS image of Solaris 11 for hypervisor for logical domain?
also two domain for Oracle VM, Is there any license that i must purchase ?
I mean I want to backup all OS image and can restore when i have trouble with my system?
thanks and regards

Solaris 10 zone support is hopefully applicable to Solaris 11 as well:
Support for NetBackup 7.x in virtual environments: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH127089
NetBackup Support for Oracle Solaris Virtualization :http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH162994
if you need 100% confirmation, I suggest you open a support call and request written confirmation.

thanks for your support Marianne van den Berg
But on Solaris 10 virtualization define partittion is Zone (container), that dedicate hardware for partition and on Solaris 11, Virtualization is logical domain (same Vmware, using virtual hardware). I want to be sure about backup OS image for Solaris 10 for hyperviosr (firmware virtualization) and logical domain (virtual machine), Hope some document about this

Thanks, but in this instance I would rather see the Solution cleared until we have a definitive reply from Symantec with updated TN's...
The interest of the greater Community is what matters here.... (although the points are appreciated! )

Hi. I don't know is this a valid way to configure Solaris 11 Netbackup client but it works fine for me :
1. I use solaris 10 client and make the copy of binaries to client server :
client name : pase-db-01-bck
user on solaris 11 : admin
