This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hi,
Environment:-
DB: PostgreSQL 9.x
OS: Solaris 8.x and 9.x
Backup Software: NBU 7.x
Can NBU 7.x backup PostgreSQL running on Solaris? Based on Zmanda link below, it show only for Linux Client?

The ONLY reference to MySQL in the NBU Agent Compatibility Guide is this:
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows
Handy NBU Links
Sorry, it's Linux only right now.
Straight from Zmanda's site:
PostgreSQL Agent for NetBackup
http://zmanda.com/netbackup-postgres-backup.html
Still, you could always email them and see if they have any plans/roadmap for Solaris support - it doesn't cost anything to ask!
Thanks for replied. It seem offline backup is the way to go for data integrity. Yes, i have checked with Zmanda as well. Still pending the feedback from them.
Would you like to reply?
