Re: [Veritas-bu] netbackup and vStorage question

Yes, NBU 7 seems to be very good. Especially because I do not have to see the puredisk GUI again J.

I’m trying to test the FA and that’s why I have the “fight” with the wmware team.

I just need to confirm that I’m right

I'm not a VMware guy but I believe that vStorage is part of VMware. It's up to NetBackup to use those APIs to do the backups. That's all part of NetBackup 7 which has gone FA and is due to go GA in another week or so. It looks really, really good and once we get NBU 7 installed (probably March or April for us), then I'll have a serious look at the new backup interfaces to VMware.

Hi to all,

The last few days I have a “fight” with my company’s Vmware guys about vStorage.

Can anyone tell me what is vStorage and how I can get it?

Is vStorage a VMware product or a third party API?

Who must install and configure vStorage, the backup team or VMware team?

Any other info will e useful

Thanks

Stefanos
