Problems with EMC Networker 9.2 and Hyper-V

Hello,

I am running EMC Networker 9.2 and am constantly having trouble when running Hyper-V backups.

My topology is as follows:

- storage node FC attached to DD, using DD Boost

- Hyper-V standalone cluster that I wish to back up to the SN above

Although the DD is accessible only over FC, all other Standalone Hyper-V servers have client direct and block based backups enabled.

When I try enabling Client Direct and block based backups for the my new Hyper-V server, I get the error below

Unable to perform backup for save-set ID '' with DIRECT_ACCESS=Yes, check device and pool configuration to enable Client direct

Filesystem backups run just fine with Client Direct disabled, but I am not able to make Hyper-V backups complete successfully with Client Direct enabled or disabled.

I am also certain that the policy is correctly configured and that there is end to end connectivity between client, SN and server.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Bogdan
