Configurations for backing up RDMs

You can use either of the following NetBackup configurations to back up disk arrays as RDMs:

Without Snapshot Client: Install a NetBackup client on the virtual machine. You can configure NetBackup to back up the virtual machine and any RDMs as if the client was installed on a physical host. Without Snapshot Client software on the virtual machine, the features of Snapshot Client are not available. (This configuration is not discussed in this NetBackup for VMware guide.)
With Snapshot Client: Install a NetBackup client and Snapshot Client software on the virtual machine. Configure an alternate client backup.
