With the Netbackup client installed, you mean?

I haven't tried this myself, but I don't see any obvious issues with
doing so.  What kind of problems are you running into?

An encapsulated filesystem is an issue with volume managers like VxVM
and shouldn't have anything to do with netbackup.  In general, you won't
be able to create a flash archive of an encapsulated root disk.  The
flash restore won't be able to create the appropriate VxVM setup.

You could do it, but as a "post" step you'd need to clean up /etc/system
and /etc/vfstab and probably touch install-db on 3.x and earlier so that
VxVM doesn't launch.  With 4.x you wouldn't need the install-db, but
would need the other bits.
