[1] Solutions Enabler are the set of API commands needed to manage EMC
equipment from the command line level. The code is all there for all of
the EMC features (SRDF, Timefinder, Symmconsole, etc...), but they need
proper licensing to activate.
[2] I am not familiar with this NMM VSS configuration, but based on the
notes you provided it sounds like the solena client in the NW config is
a special client used by NW to execute specific EMC commands for the
feature you are working with.
It also sounds like there is a lot of information and steps missing with
regards to this setup that might be further documented in an EMC manual,
not sure.
Regards.

Subject: [Networker] Backup WithVSS Client: Microsoft Application Module
Has anyone used NMM for VSS client resource with CLARiiON devices ?
I found the following known issues mentioned in the release notes.
To protect a NMM using CLARiiON or Symmetrix storage:
◆ Install Solutions Enabler on a local volume (a volume that is
not a CLARiiON or Symmetrix volume). When Solutions Enabler is installed
on a local volume, the snapshot is taken with the software-based VSS
System provider.
◆ Do not specify save set All.
◆ Create at least two client resources for the NMM. Create one
client resource for the local volume on which Solutions Enabler is
installed and create another client resource for the CLARiiON or
Symmetrix volumes. Local volumes without Solutions Enabler installed can
be included in any client resource.
◆ Ensure that the client resource for the local volume on which
Solutions Enabler is installed and the client resource for the CLARiiON
or Symmetrix volumes are not assigned to the same backup group.
Questions:
[1] What is solution enabler. Is it the application module or somwthing
else?
[2] If i create seperate client resource with CLARiiON volumes as save
sets, will those devices be backed up as using VSS ?
Thanks
