Hi Nicholas You could install TSM for SAN on the VM Host box, and set up a dedicated virtual ethernet adapter internally to pass the data from the VM Client to the host. This way you only need one extra HBA for all the VMs on the same host.

Hello All, Thanks for your help!! I have a client that uses the Exchange TDP and are using LAN-FREE. The data is several TB. They currently to a full on the weekends and incrementals daily. Their TSM server is on AIX. They would like to move their physical Exchange servers to couple of VMs. The issue is that none of our VCPs seem to think that an HBA can be assigned to a individual guest for exclusive use thereby facilitating the use of LAN-FREE. Has anyone out there seen a similar configuration, or know that this works or have any other ideas on how to accomplish the backup without LAN-FREE?
