When you create a virtual machine with RHEL 7 or RHEL 6 as the Guest OS, the SCSI controller type is set to VMware Paravirtual by default. The HotAdd transport mode does not work if either the backup proxy or the backup target uses Paravirtual SCSI controller.
To use HotAdd transport mode, set the SCSI controller type to LSI Logic Parallel or LSI Logic SAS when you create the virtual machine. For more information about configuring this setting, see the relevant VMware documentation.
The file-level backup method does not back up data through a reparse point.
The VMware API does not support this type of backup.

Install NetVault Backup Client on the Guest OS, and perform a backup using the Plug-in for FileSystem to include the reparse point directory. |
