Re: [Veritas-bu] Question about media server OS

The big one is that there is no dedup support - for either media server dedup 
or the PDDO plugin.
Appliances that use NFS or FC VTL do work.
OST plugin support from the manufacturers varies - for example, Data Domain 
does not have a Solaris x86 plugin but Quantum does.

Another big one is that there is no Granular Recovery Technology support for 
Active Directory, Exchange, and SharePoint.

I've never seen one document that mentions all this, so if someone has it and 
can share, I think we'd all appreciate it.

Can you share which features are not supported on Solaris/x64 ?
Is there any document about it ?
