VCB on Netbackup with SAN disk assigned to the host

$

I've setup VCB on our Netbackup host, but I'm getting failures (see below)

 

 

 

 

 

My question is... I have 3 fiber connections on my Netbackup host (for disk, 2 for tape)

 

 

 

 

 

1-2 are redundant conenctions to SAN disk used for Disk to Disk backups, disk staging and SQL log dumps

 

 

3 is a single path to the ESX VM Luns

 

 

The rest are zoned to the tape devices

 

 

 

 

 

Is this configuration supported? should the ONLY san connections be the VMWare LUNs?

 

 

 

 

 

If I presented the VMWare LUNs first, i.e.. moving the fiber to HBA 0 rather than later down the device chain, would this correct it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you.
