Hi,

Netbackup has Plugin to interface to Nutanix cluster which is available as for Linux, as far as I know, it was supported on RHEL and SUSE, I will try on CentOS and let you know how it goes.

I have upgraded our Solaris Master to 8.1. I'm wondering where to get the plugin.



From what I understand the plugin can be used on a Linux Netbackup Client.
