Limitations

  • Cross-platform recovery of individual files is not supported. The restore client must be the same platform as the instances that you want to restore. Windows instances can be restored using Windows operating systems and Linux instances can be restored only using Linux operating systems.

  • For client platform and file system support and limitations, see https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/doc/NB_70_80_VE .

  • If a backup and a restore occur simultaneously on the same database, one or both jobs can have unexpected results.

    Note:

    If a backup or a restore exits with a non-zero NetBackup status code, one possible cause is simultaneous jobs occurring on the same instance.

  • Restore job fails, if NetBackup does not have sufficient privileges or if there is insufficient space in the client memory.

  • NetBackup does not support non-ASCII characters in target client location path.
