Dell NetWorker 19.9 Administration Guide

Limitations

NetWorker's block based backups and recoveries do not support the following capabilities and configurations:

• FAT32 file system

  In the case of the ALL save set backups, either unmount or remove the FAT32 volumes, and perform the backups.

• Live updates and service patches for Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04
• Backup levels 1 through 9
• Backups of Microsoft 2012 clusters without Cluster Shared Volumes
• Incremental backups of cluster shared volumes
• Cloning of AFTD incremental backups
• Granular save sets at either the folder level or the file level, for example, D:\data
• Checkpoint restart
• Standard NetWorker directives
• The scanner command with the -i option for rebuilding indexes for block based backups
• Staging and the nsrclone command with the -m option for migrating block based backup save sets to other volumes
• Image recovery to a system volume
• Troubleshoot kernel on RHEL, and Trace and Xen kernels on SLES
• For XFS file system, block size of 64 KB
• Redirected recovery of XFS save sets on pre 19.4 clients since block based backup XFS support has been introduced in the NetWorker 19.4 release
