Re: [Veritas-bu] Vmare vcb

Hi Gary.

Currently VCB does not support the ability to exclude drives when backing up the full virtual machine at the vmdk level (VMware calls this a FullVM backup). The ability to selectively backup individual drives will be available in a future release of NetBackup.

        Just getting to grips with vmware/vcb/nbu (6.5.2) and setting up some
    test policies - we're backing up through the vc server and have the
    requirement on one of the backups to exclude the D: drive on a vmware
    system. Now they don't show up as normal clienst so cant do theexcludes
    that way, so thought ok, create a policy with specific drives rather
    than all local, but there doesn't seem to be that option - does anyone
    know how I can exclude a prticular drive on a vmware client/vcb backup?
    TIA
