I've been backing up the guest OS's successfully with NBU 4.5 MP2.
However, trying to backup the physical server, I fail on Linux files
greater than 2 GB.  The 2 GB limit has been overcome for the ext2/ext3
file systems with FP4, but there is no mention of support for VMWares
VMFS file system.  I've been told this should work and I plan on testing=

it in late June.=20

Great question...I'm actually having one of my clients test this out as
we speak.  The installer seemed to crash the first guest OS (W2K) they
attempted...but next week more tests will be done.

Have you tried it yet=3F
