• iSCSI and FC host interfaces are supported in Veeam Storage Integration for the connection between
backup proxies and the ETERNUS DX.
• To connect a Backup Proxy with the ETERNUS DX via an FC, the host affinity settings must be configured
for the Backup Proxy using ETERNUS CLI. For more details, refer to "ETERNUS CLI User's Guide".
• To enable the ETERNUS DX storage snapshot integration with Veeam Backup & Replication, FUJITSU
Plug-In for Veeam Backup & Replication must be installed to the Veeam backup server.
• If a volume has several snapshot generations and these snapshots have been created with different
resolutions, only the oldest snapshot generation can be deleted.
