I know that it isn't as difficult as you may imagine. 

The master must have drives and must be in the same SAN with the vmware
system.

There are some scripts from vmware that are running as bpstart_notify.

 

You must take the system state of the virtual systems with regular netbackup
backup.

 

We have it in our lab and it is working fine

Subject: [Veritas-bu] VMware Consolidated Backup

 


Hi,

 

I am running ESX 3.0 and am currently running backups per client.  I would
like to look into backing up the vmdk files using VMware Consolidated Backup
option.  Does anyone have any information that they can share with me?  Is
there anything I need to do on the Master/Media servers? On the clients?
