You do not have to use VCB to back up VMware. The way Anas is trying to
do it is supported. Each method has advantages and disadvantages. This
method will have all full backups and you have to figure out how to
snapshot the vmdk files.
I believe the only problem is that the VMFS filesystem i
The Virtual Machines are stored on a VMFS (Virtual Machine File System)
which Netbackup doesn't understand. Its a proprietary format developed
by VMWare for use in ESX Server (its got advanced capabilities like
journaling.) To backup Virtual Machines via the .vmdk you need to use

Reminds me of old science book I read once.
It said that phrases like the speed of light while they imply definite

I have a growing VMware ESX farm and have deployed NBU 6 agent on the

I'd say the hard limit is the amount of throughput you are going to
expect. Three 1U Media servers only have so many expansion and bus
options versus an 8U Behemoth with expansion and bus speed galore. Then
again, if you are using a SAN for disk storage then 1 HBA with 2 x 4Gbit
connections makes

If both ends are at 6.0 MP4 you should just need to open vnetd which is
port 13724.
Also for 6.0 MP4 you do NOT need to add the client. We have several
clients that are running without having been added to master's client
setup.
(FYI: Even for 5.1 it wasn't in the "Firewall" tab but rather in "
Can some one please elaborate on what firewall ports
we need to open (is it 1566, 13782, 13720 and 13724)
Also do we need to add the client (which is behind a
firewall) to the 'Firewall' TAB in Master Server
Properties and also in 'Client Attributes'

Since we are not using BMR functionality yet,
disbaling those BMR services is a workaround for us.
We are pushing Symantec to include the fix in 6.5.2

you need another master?"
Your original question might not gain you the answer you want because
most environments only have one master (except for special needs i.e.

Or to put it another way. The backplane of your switch is the limiting
factor. If the switch is oversubscribed(too many devices) it could become a
bottleneck.

You're mixing up bits and bytes. Your fibre hba is 1 Gb (little b = bit).
Your drives are capable of 120MB (big B = byte). So you're trying to put
120MB of data down a roughly 100MB pipe.
I'd say that for each LTO-4, you're going to need a dedicated 1Gb HBA or
upgrade the HBAs switch to 4Gbps an
