VSAN / XRAIL integration

Hello;

I just need to know more about the integration between Commvault and VXRAIL requirements [Ports, Connectivity] also need to know how the backup works and how the traffic goes using normal backup and IntelliSnap.

 

thanks

The backup data will flow from the VxRail to your MAs over the LAN.  You can use either NBD or HotAdd modes.  SAN mode is not available.  You can use IntelliSnap, but realize you don’t get the same benefits as taking snapshots using a traditional storage array.  The Backup Copy jobs will still send data over the LAN since SAN mode is not available.

Thanks,
Scott
