NetWorker supports Cluster solutions on all combinations of OSs and Cluster (i.e. MSCS, VCS, Autostart, etc..) versions in this table, provided that the OS is supported by both the Cluster and the NetWorker Client/Server
installed on the Cluster hosts
See Release Notes for information on LGTpa26585
2 HACMP is supported in Multiple LPAR environment only across physical server, not across LPARs residing in the same physical server.
4 NetWorker Hot Fix required to support AutoStart and NetWorker for Linux; reference LGTsc16115
5 No NetWorker Server support
6 Only supported with VxVM and VxFS 3.5.
7 Only supported with VxVM and VxFS 4.1
8 No NetWorker Server support (includes NetWorker client failover running on physical storage nodes)
9 NetWorker 7.6.x, and 8.0 does not support Solaris 8
10 NetWorker NetWorker 7.6 SP1 and newer.
11 NetWorker dedup module/functionality support in a clustered environment.Only the NW Client(includes local SN's) configuration within a cluster environment will be supported.
12 Customers upgrading from 11.17 should use the older resource group configuration method legacy packages, not modular packages.
13 Does not support Cluster Shared Volumes.
14 Support only with NetWorker 7.6 and higher and NetWorker 7.6.x and higher.
15 Legacy or Modular mode support only for 7.6.x.
16 Autostart 5.3 SP4 Windows 2003 (x86) NetWorker Server and Client 7.6 SP1 only
17 Starting from release 5.4, AutoStart no longer provides the nwclust.pl script.
When configuring NetWorker 7.6 SP1 and earlier in an AutoStart 5.4 or later cluster environment, contact support to obtain the nwclust.pl script, then copy this script to the AutoStart binary installation directory (for example,
/opt/EMCas54/bin).
When upgrading to NetWorker 7.6 SP2, the NetWorker 7.6 SP2 release includes the script, but since the location of the script has changed, the lcmap script needs to be updated to point to the new location. To reconfigure the
AutoStart cluster so that the generated lcmap script points to the correct location of the nwclust.pl script:
On UNIX, run networker.cluster r, then run networker.cluster
On Windows, run lc_config r, then run lc_config
More information on cluster configuration is provided in the EMC NetWorker 7.6 Service Pack 2 Cluster Installation Guide.
Note: When performing a new installation of NetWorker 7.6 SP2, these steps for upgrading do not apply. Follow the instructions for performing a cluster install in the NetWorker 7.6 SP2 Cluster Installation Guide.
18 Client only support
19 Not supported with AutoStart 5.3 SP4
20 Only this version is supported with NetWorker 8.0.
21 Not support with NW 8.0
22 Supported by NetWorker 7.6.x and 8.0.
23 Added support with NetWorker 8.0 SP1
24 Solaris 11.1 supported on NetWorker 7.6 SP3 and newer.
25 Solaris 11.1 supported on NetWorker 8.1 and newer.
26 Added Support with Networker 8.1.1

Notes
Consult the latest NMDA Release Notes for limitations, required patches, and more information.
NMDA 1.6 and 1.5 support NetWorker (Server, Client and Storage Node) versions 7.6 and up
NMDA supports
o all combinations of OSs and databases (i.e. DB2, Informix, Lotus, MySQL, Oracle, Sybase) versions in this table, provided that the OS is supported by both database and the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA
host
o raw devices, and all file systems supported by both the application and the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host; if the database is Oracle, ASM and ACFS are supported, too
o all FixPacks/PatchSets for all database releases in this table (e.g. stated support for Oracle 10.2 implies support for Oracle 10.2.0.2 too; stated support for IDS 11.10 implies support for 11.10.FC2 too, etc.)
o all Service Packs, Updates, patches, etc, of all OSs listed in this table (e.g. stated support for Oracle Linux 5 implies support for Oracle Linux 5 Update 4 too, stated support for Asianux Server 3 implies support for
Asianux Server 3 SP 3 too, stated support for AIX 6.1 implies support for AIX 6.1 TL06 too, etc.)
Supported and required bitnesses of involved components:
For hosts having a single application installed:
For support of Sybase ASE installed on an AIX, HP-UX PA- RISC, Oracle SPARC or Windows host: 32-bit NMDA 1.5 supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Sybase ASE, regardless of whether the OS or the CPU is 32bit or 64-bit; See the latest NMDA Release Notes for required bitness of the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host
For support of Sybase ASE installed on an AIX, HP-UX PA- RISC, or Oracle SPARC host: 32-bit NMDA 1.6 supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Sybase ASE, regardless of whether the OS or the CPU is 32-bit or 64bit; See the latest NMDA Release Notes for required bitness of the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host
For support of all other applications and/or OSs: 32-bit NMDA supports 32-bit versions of the installed application, and 64-bit NMDA supports 64-bit versions of the installed application, regardless of whether the
OS or the CPU is 32-bit or 64-bit. See the latest NMDA Release Notes for required bitness of the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host
For hosts having multiple applications installed: see the latest NMDA Release Notes for supported environments and procedures.

Deduplication support:
o NMDA supports client direct deduplication to Data Domain device on most (see Release Notes for details) environments for which the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host supports file system client direct
restores.
o NMDA supports deduplication to Avamar on most (see Release Notes for details) environments for which the NetWorker Client installed on the NMDA host supports file system deduplication to Avamar.
NMDA supports all virtualization environments (such as VMware, Hyper-V, Solaris zone and LDOM, AIX LPAR and WPAR, HP nPar and vPar, HP IVM etc,) at the guest-level, provided that the application, NMDA, and the
NetWorker Client running on this guest-OS support natively this OS.

NetWorker Fast Start 10 client license (available in NWFS 7.6 SP1) prepackages the following components:
o 1 Backup server (Linux or Windows)
o Up to 10 clients
o 1 application modules choice between NMO, NME, NMSQL and NMM 4
o Up to 5 TB backup to disk or EDL
o One 20-slot auto-changer
o 1 TB Data Domain Device Type
In alignment with Microsofts end of support for Windows 2000, NetWorker releases no longer support the Windows 2000 platform
All the prepackaged components except NMM are delivered in a single blob. All the prepackaged components are licensed through a single enabler
NetWorker Fast Start also includes a license for a 40-slot auto-changer. This license is provided as a separated enabler
All the components and products compatible with NetWorker 7.5.x and 7.4.x are also compatible with NetWorker Fast Start 7.5.x and 7.4.x respectively. NetWorker Fast Start is a full featured NetWorker release, not a
light version, and provides support for all the features of a full featured NetWorker release, such as de-duplication and system recovery.
The easy install and auto configuration for the NetWorker Fast Start server component is only available on Linux and Windows
NetWorker Fast Start supports the same clients supported in the corresponding NetWorker release, however the Fast Start client installation, auto detection and auto-configuration is only available with the prepackaged
clients (Linux and Windows). Any client different from Linux and Windows has to be installed using the OS specific installation process.
For module compatibility with various OS platforms, please look at the individual module sections.
NetWorker Fast Start 7.6 SP1 expands the support for Sharepoint application using NMM, in addition to NMM for Exchange (earlier Exchange backups were configured with NME), NMSQL and NMO.
For 20 Client License, Up to 5 application modules, with a choice of NMO, NME, NMSQL and NMM could be used with NetWorker Fast Start single enabler.
For 10 Client License, 1 application module, with a choice of NMO, NME, NMSQL and NMM could be used with NetWorker Fast Start single enabler
NetWorker Fast Start automatically installs NMM, NMSQL and NMO for Sharepoint,/Exchange, SQL and Oracle protection respectively.
