Info

For details on the backup types see, Data Protector backup types. Data Protector components Figure 1 Simplified component layout schematic Data Protector Cell Manager The Data Protector Cell Manager can be installed on a virtual machine, vCenter Server system, backup host, or a separate system outside the virtual environment. Data Protector Virtual Environment Integration component Under most circumstances, it is only necessary to install the Data Protector Virtual Environment Integration component on one Data Protector client in the cell in which the virtual environments to be backed up are located. This client will be called the backup host and can be: The Data Protector Cell Manager A dedicated physical backup host A virtual machine The component includes the following major parts: vepa_bar.exe, activated during backup and restore operations on virtual environments vepa_util.exe, activated during browsing and query operations on virtual environments vepalib_vmware, a dynamic link library providing VMware specific functionality for backup, restore, query and browsing tasks. Note VEPA stands for virtual environment protection agent. Data Protector Media Agents Data Protector Media Agents can be installed on vCenter Server systems, backup hosts, or other clients in the Data Protector cell.
Supported configurations Data Protector supports environments where ESX Server and/or ESXi Server systems are managed through a vCenter Server (vCenter environments) as well as environments with standalone ESX/ESXi Server systems (standalone ESX(i) Server environments). Mixed environments, in which some of the ESX Server and/or ESXi Server systems are managed through a vCenter Server system and some are standalone, are also supported. You can even have multiple vCenter Server systems in your environment, each managing its own set of ESX Server and/or ESXi Server systems. vCenter environment In a vCenter environment, Data Protector communicates with the VMware Virtual Infrastructure through the vCenter Server system. All backup and restore requests are sent there. In one session, you can back up virtual machines from multiple datacenters.
