Im of the view that the NetBackup Server is your "recovery Server". Or
put it another way ... your life boat!

If your sinking and in trouble..... you need a life boat to come to the
rescue...

If your VM Master is on a HOST that is destroyed, and you dont have any
"HA" then you could well be in trouble, and could risk longer recovery
time !

Where poss, keep your boat seperate from your live environment.... even
a seperate room for that matter if you can justify costs, ect

I can think of no good reason to VM a master server, other than "because
I can" or "because I want to".

leave it be
