NOTE:

The following restrictions apply:

• SQL Server cluster configurations are not supported on guest operating systems, except for a

limited subset of configurations

between

guest operating systems, which are supported only in

Replication Manager version 7.1 and later. However, note that in these configurations, you must

use disks that are directly connected to iSCSI, and the SQL version must be one of the following:

SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 R2, and SQL Server 2012.

• The backup server cannot support a Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V environment if a pass-through

connection is used and the secondary volume is recognized dynamically (hidden). Backup using

VSS is not supported if a pass-through connection is used.
