We did that. Veritas did not tell us not to do it. We have a enormous amount of data do backup so we had to migrate the NteBackup DB of local disk. So for no problem. The concern we had is that on normal backup you can direct Veritas to "Follow NFS". There is no such option on NetBackup Catalog backups. We were concern if the catalog will be backed up properly. As far as NFS not being reliable, I think that battle had been fought many years ago. Ilya

Has anyone placed the Veritas Netbackup database on an NFS mounted file system? More specifically on a netapp? I was just told by Veritas that they do not recommend doing this because NFS is unreliable. Any feedback would be helpful.
