Hello

I'm trying to do scripts for restore Virtual Machines from VMWARE in an disaster recovery situation.

nbrestorevm command does not appear in the netbackup directory. I have installed Netbackup Enterprise Server on AIX 7.1 netbackup 7.5.0.6

Can I install from where?

I'm restoring with "bprestore" command and using the parameters of nbrestorevm, it seems ok.

Seems nbrestorevm is a NBU 7.6 command.

See http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO91739

Under 'Products', click on 'See all'.

As Marianne stated, NetBackup 7.6 provides a command-line interface for instant recovery of virtual machines: the nbrestorevm command

To restore the virtual machines, run nbrestorevm on the master server or backup host.

The nbrestorevm command is located in the following directory:

UNIX and Linux:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbrestorevm

Windows:

install_path\NetBackup\bin\nbrestorevm.exe

 

so you cant use this command in below 7.6

I have also checked NBU 7.5 Command Reference Guide:   http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC5182

No such command in 7.5.
