[Veritas-bu] Vmware Backup Limit - 4 Virtual Guest Machines
Hi all Going through my Vmware testing on 7.0.1 and when I done my initial testing, I wrote myself a note, saying that there is a limit that only 4 Virtual Machine Guests can only be backed up at one time. Is this correct, or did I misunderstand my note? I have over 200 !

Simon, I think this limit is per datastore not global.

Can I ask how yours is setup? I was initially thinking of one Policy and cramming the VM's in this one policy. If anyone has suggestions, that would be appreciated?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Vmware Backup Limit - 4 Virtual Guest Machines
Simon, VMWare setup her is about 600 VMs ( and increasing ) over several datastores. We are running Netbackup 7.1.x and backups are done using SAN with 4 proxy hosts (no VCB but Full Mapped Volume using vStorage API). We use the query facility in the Policy to automatically add VM to the specific policy. The limit of 4 VM is per VMWare datastore. During backup period, There is about 24 concurrent VM backups ( 6 per proxy ).
