VMWare and Egenera
3PAR Recovery Manager 4.1.0 For Microsoft Exchange 2010 User’s Guide
Figure A-1. Sever Virtualization Environment
The following requirements need to be met for VMWare and Egenera to be supported:
1 The disks presented to the Exchange Servers need to be raw devices.
2 The backup server needs to be connected directly to the InServ and not through VMWare
or Egenera.
■ The RMExch mount command can not be run against a virtual machine from the VMWare
or Egenera server with the
-h option.
■ The RMExch mount command with the -expose option, can be used in this case.
■ If RMExch mount with the -expose option is not used, the storage administrator needs to
perform the actions to expose the volumes to the server manually.
