And to wait for 6 - 8 months is not ideal. Simon

We are going ESX5, so I had hoped that 7.0 or at least 7.1 would support it. As I understand, 7.5 is in BETA still right ? Simon

Netbackup would add the support of Vcenter 5 soon.
Howerver for ESX 5 we would have to wait for netbackup 7.5
We were also about to go Netbackup VMware agent based backups however had to drop it at last due to compatibility concerns.

Morning I wanted to see if anyone can shed some light on this question, because I am not able to find the "official" answer. VMware announced several months ago about vmware5. However, reading on some Symantec "Blog" sites, they talk about VMware5 being supported in NetBackup 7.5. Well, we are at 7.0.1 and I was kind of hoping that NetBackup and VMware5 would work in harmony. It is a little puzzling, because another product called VEEAM supports VMware 5 already. Should I really have to change to a different product to get support? If anyone either from Symantec, or anyone that has deployed VMware 5 can advise, this would be apprecaited, as I think its a bit foolish to upgrade to the later product if your backup solution doesnt meet the support requirements. Thank you for your help and any input :-) Regards Simon Weaver
