Re: [Veritas-bu] 7.0.1 & optimized vmdk backup issue (vstorage vs vcb)

This is not happening to me, but I am
at 7.0.0 (with an EEB for VM backup issues).
Have you enabled the Block Level Incremental
Backup checkbox? If this is not enabled, it will always do a full backup.
If it's not enabled now, you will have to do two backups to start seeing
the benefit of BLIB. This is because BLIB enables Change Block Tracking
in the VM, so you'll have to get one full backup with BLIB/CBT enabled
so that NBU can compare subsequent backups against it.

vs vcb)
I'm noticing for linux guest machine backups using 7.0.1 & vstorage
style backups:
The full VMDK is always backed up (including white space).
Where as in NBU 6.5.6 & VCB, the full vmdk backups of linux guests
are optimized (no white space). Window's guests don't have this issue.
Anyone experiencing this?
