Tables of Features and Required Software
28 NetBackup ServerFree Agent System Administrator’s Guide
The following table describes each frozen image method and its requirements.
Note Note that ServerFree Agent’s frozen image methods and offhost backup methods
perform mapping of the underlying file system and volume structure being backed
up. This mapping has been verified for the I/O system components listed in this
table under “Data Type Supported.”
The use of other components in the I/O system, such as other volume managers or
storage replicators, may result in an unreliable backup. Such configurations are not
supported by ServerFree Agent. For an updated list of supported storage
configurations, refer to “ServerFree Agent Information on the Web” on page xiv.
