Re: [Networker] networker server as VM

Dave,
Does EMC support deploying NetWorker in a virtual server environment? With the
heavy network bandwidth that backups typically require, as well as high
processor load, I couldn’t imagine virtualizing a backup server in any
environment where there are more than just a few backup clients. It also seems
to me that hosting a virtualized backup server in the same VMware complex that
is being backed up amounts to putting all of one’s eggs in a single basket.
What happens if the ESX server that host’s the NetWorker server crashes, or its
storage crashes?

Hi,
I was wondering what folks experience was with having their NetWorker
server configured as a VM?
I'm specifically thinking about the need to have a local device for indexes
and bootstraps. How have you dealt with that in an all tape (or FC-only
VTL) environment?
