Guys,
Best would be created a cluster active passive for NBU MASTER Keep your physical machine as passive so that it can take over in worst case scenarios.

The master is a physical server. Two things I can immediately think of: Resource contention of the VMs and any features that move the VMs around to optimize resources (VMware does this with Distributed Resource Scheduler [DRS]). Unless it’s a pretty small domain, and there isn’t a need to virtualize, I would opt for physical servers. Maybe I’m just a traditionalist. -Rusty From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of brian_tho...@playstation.sony.com Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2011 5:38 PM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup (Virtualized Master & Media Servers) I work for Sony Playstation and we are moving a racked stand-alone Master & Media server configuration to a new data center. I am on version 7.1 and am considering virtualizing the entire infrastructure. Has anyone successfully done this yet and did you run into any gotchas?
