John, You're on the right track. That message is related to the VMDK backups and not SLPs. The policy will do a sort of pre-check when you apply or save the changes. An SLP doesn't care what type of backup it is, as long as the image completes successfully, then the SLP steps will take over and do what you asked.
You should be able to click OK on that message, it will do it's pre-check and then go away. If there are any error messages, it has to do with incompatibilities of your policy settings and the VMs, like BLIB not being supported for vmk-04 version VMs, etc. -Rusty -----Original Message----- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of John Meyers Sent: Friday, July 06, 2012 9:01 AM To: Veritas Subject: [Veritas-bu] SLP duplications for VMDK (flashbackup-windows) images. Currently running NetBackup 7.1.0.3 and wondering if there is any support for using SLP's to duplicate VMDK backup images created using flashbackup-windows type policies? If I try to designate an SLP for the Policy Storage in this type of VMDK policy, I receive an error "There is no snapshot storage created in the current lifecycle policy that is used in the backup". Where the SLP is defined with just "Backup" and "Duplication" storage destinations. Just wondering if there is any configuration to make this work or if I should be looking at configuring a Vault profile to perform this type of duplication.
