Veeam support for Solaris 11 (Oracle Minicluster)

Post by ssayeed@auk.edu.kw »

Dear Veeam Experts,

We have added oracle Minicluster hardware to enhance our oracle database and applications, we would like to establish the backup of this systems using Veeam backup and Replication product.
Please advise the suitability of backup for Solaris virtualization using Veeam backup and replication software and below points.

1) When will be Veeam product officially supporting such environment ?
2) Will that allow full vm and granular backup and restore?
3) What will be the licensing method and price?

Regards
Shaik Sayeed

Hi Shaik, currently we do not have plans to support Solaris virtualization. There are plans to support backup of physical systems running under Solaris, though.

Hi Shaik,

1) Unfortunately, there is no expected date for the Solaris OS support, so no ETA for now.
2) Yes, you can use Agent to backup VMs on Solaris, however, you should keep in mind it's unsupported environment, so in case of any issues most of time we will not able to solve them. Thanks!

Adding on to this, please note if you're using Solaris Zones that Zones may be fully backed up and restored with the host operating system.
