Things to know before you protect AHV virtual machines
During protection plan creation there are some validations which are to be taken in consideration:
If schedule type is Automatic, ensure all the NetBackup versions are as mentioned:
Incremental schedules are supported only for backup host version 8.3 or later.
If you have windows computer as a backup host, make sure that the version is 9.1 or later.
If you want to use Enable virtual machine quiesce option, ensure that the backup host is 9.1 or later.
If Intelligent VM group has category attribute as filter then backup host version should be 10.4 or later.
To protect Nutanix Prism Central related VM attributes, Nutanix Prism Central configuration is required.
Note:
To protect Nutanix Prism Central related VM attributes, ensure that the NetBackup host version is 10.1.1 or later.
