You need an enterprise client license for NBU. Process with VDR is
pretty smooth and quick in comparison to VCB.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Vmware VCB & VDR

I'm looking for experiences using VCB or VDR backups with NetBackup.
Currently, we are only doing file level backups at the OS level, but I'm
looking into the possibility of leveraging NetBackup to backup the whole
VM for DR purposes. 
Have you been successful in implementing either VCB or VDR backups?
Are there any clients that need to be purchases?

I have used VCB in the past with Networker and understand how that works
as far as configuration, but have no experience with VDR. To me it looks
like VDR is a disk-to-disk type backup, but I'm wondering if NetBackup
has the ability to write to tape?

Thanks
