NetBackup Fibre Transport is a method of data transfer. It uses Fibre Channel and
a subset of the SCSI command protocol for data movement over a SAN rather than
TCP/IP over a LAN. It provides a high-performance transport mechanism for the
following scenarios:
Backup and restore between NetBackup clients and NetBackup media servers
■
Optimized duplication and Auto Image Replication between NetBackup media
■
servers
See
