- Linux Logical Volume Manager snapshots fail with an error
- NetWorker to Media-Clone stops responding and the backup fails
- File-by-file or saveset restore fails
- Restore of raw devices fails on Linux with permission issue
- Command nsrsnap_recover -I runs but fails to restore a file
- Restore fails with disk signature error
- Directed restore files and folder permission issue

NetWorker 19.7 Snapshot Management Integration Guide
Application host
An application host in the snapshot environment is a computer with production data that resides on storage array volumes and requires snapshot services. The production data can consist of file systems and databases.
NSM supports snapshots of a VMware guest operating system for raw device mapped volumes on a VMAX and iSCSI volumes on VNX. If you use VNX storage, when a RecoverPoint appliance controls the volumes, NSM supports RDM when you use VMAX storage or iSCSI. XtremIO snapshots and RecoverPoint are supported.
Each application host must be configured as a NetWorker host and must have the following software installed:
- NetWorker client 19.6.
- NetWorker extended client 19.6.
- NMDA/NMSAP 19.6, if you are protecting IBM DB2 data, Oracle data, or SAP with Oracle data.
- Must be configured as a NetWorker client.
