Preparing backup and cloning servers for VMware or KVM

If a backup or clone server you are using is VMware or KVM, the storage device must be attached to the virtual machine with either iSCSI or Network file system.

Before you begin

Review Installation prerequisites for backup and clone servers to ensure that all requirements for backup and clone servers are met. These requirements are also required for backup servers on virtual machines.

Procedure

Verify that all target LUNs in backup or clone operations are attached to the virtual machine with one of the following attachment methods:

• iSCSI
• Network file system (NFS)
