Notes on the NetBackup Add-in for SCVMM

Note the following about the NetBackup add-in:

  • This release of the NetBackup add-in for SCVMM does not support the following: Monitoring of virtual machine backups, restore of individual files from virtual machine backups, or restore of the virtual machine to a staging location.

    See Notes on restoring Hyper-V virtual machines with the Recovery Wizard.

  • To use the NetBackup add-in, you must log on to the SCVMM console with the Administrator role. For any user that is logged on with a different role, the add-in functionality is disabled.

  • The NetBackup add-in must be installed by every user who wants to use it.

    See Accessing the Recovery Wizard.

  • Regarding future versions of the NetBackup Add-in for SCVMM: Due to Microsoft limitations on 3rd party add-ins, the NetBackup add-in does not support upgrades to the existing version of the add-in. When a new release of the add-in is available, the current version must be uninstalled.

    Note:

    You can upgrade SCVMM without needing to reinstall the add-in.
