Arkadiusz, we have just got the RTM code as well, and started the testing. We are already seeing some issues across all products, and we do not recommend that you upgrade to vSphere 4.1 until we release updates to all Veeam product to enable vSphere support.

The nworks update to support vSphere is 5.5.2, it is planned for late August. Alec can give you more information about this.

Thanks!

Hello,

have another question regardinf vsphere.
As everybody writes down vsphere will be the last release of the ESX.

The future will be then ESXI, as many people say.

Will therer be in future also support for the ESXi product?

[Vitaliy S.]

Arkadiusz, could you please clarify your question, as both nworks MP and nworks SPI do provide full support for ESXi hosts in all current releases.

Hello,

sorry I missed that information.
Thank you for this helpful information!

[Gostev]

100% of Veeam products fully support ESXi.

Hello,

will there be a problem if I only upgrade my vcenter server to version 4.1?
I had an backup issue and have to reinstall my vcenter server on an 64-Bit operating system, because it is required to have an 64-Bit operating system for tne new vcenter.

Thanks for some informations.

[Gostev]

Yes, there will be problems with vCenter Server 4.1 and current nworks release.
You should install vCenter Server 4.0 U1, which also supports x64.

Thank you for the fast information!
