NetBackup™ Plug-in for VMware vSphere Client (HTML5) Guide

Limitations

  • Recovery and discovery of VMs created by VMware templates is not supported by the remote plug-in.

  • The vwcp_manage utility only supports NetBackup primary servers and does not support the media server. If you try to register the media server with the vwcp_manage utility either in UI mode or in CLI mode, then you may get console or UI error pop-up as Null.

  • Currently the application can provide monitoring details for up to 500 VMs and up to 200 thousand events data records. Beyond this, any increase in #VM and/or #events data records, would make the application unstable.

    The following table provides the time taken by the monitoring page to fetch data, when the user has clicked on the mentioned level in the tree (root/ESX/resource pool etc.)
