Hi All,

 

We have some legacy Physical servers which not supported by Commvault. Its mix of Windows/Linux/DB.

Can any one suggest the best workaround to backup those machines using CV?

 

Thanks,

Mani

Create an NFS or SMB mount path and write backups in native forms to that eg. Rear for Linux, DB backup to disk, or Windows backup

 

Backup mount point using file system agent

@Manikandn , can you convert these to vms and use the VSA to back them up?
