Hello, all storage integrations have been delivered by vendors directly for many years now (by implementing Universal Storage API plug-ins) so you need to check with IBM directly whether they have plans. Thanks

Please check on this link in case of supported replication technologies.
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=120

If it is not there, please explain here a bit the usecase and exact technology name for a feature request that you want to send to IBM separately for our own tracking.

Policy based snapshots work great from IBM with Veeam. can restore files or VM's from Immutable snapshots on flash storage, use surebackup, create lab environments.

What are you looking to do with PBR?

Hello,

All IBM supported features by Veeam in the following KB are only for deprecated FlashCopy technology (Hyperswap, glolabl mirror, are based on FlashCopy) on Storage Virtualize systems.
You're right, new IBM snapshot technology (Policy-Based Replication is based on this new IBM Snapshot solution) is working but replication feature becomes unavailable in Veeam Backup & Replication. Secondary storage arrays are no more supported.
