NetVault Plug-in for VMware 13.1.2 - Release Notes

Upgrade and compatibility

Plug‑in for VMware 13.1.2 requires NetVault 13.1 or later. For complete supported-platform information, see the Quest NetVault Compatibility Guide.

•
Cannot browse mounted virtual machines after upgrading NetVault: After installing the plug‑in, if you upgrade the NetVault software, you must reinstall the plug-in on that machine. Otherwise, you cannot open the Drives node of a mounted virtual machine for any new file‑level backups.
•
Restart the NetVault Service if “nvvmwmount.exe” was running during upgrade: If the mount process “nvvmwmount.exe” was running during an upgrade from 2.x, restart the NetVault Service on the client.

Product licensing

To obtain the license key for your NetVault Server environment, determine the NetVault Machine ID of your main NetVault Server. Also identify the machine IDs of any clients running application plug-ins, such as Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and Exchange.

You can use the NetVault Configuration Wizard to install the product license keys. Alternatively, you can install the license keys from the Manage Clients page.
