Limitations

This article presents limitations of the Nutanix-AHV Plugin.

  • The proxy VM must be a VM in the Nutanix-AHV environment running a Linux distribution for the plugin to work.

  • Disks located on the IDE bus cannot be backed up. Disk tray on the other hand will be backed up.

  • Content mounted on a virtual disk tray will not be restored.

  • Only one VM may be restored at a time. If a backup job contains more than one VM, then each VM will need to be restored separately.

  • Virtual full jobs are not supported.

  • The restart command has limitations with plugins, as it initiates the Job from scratch rather than continuing it. Bacula determines whether a Job is restarted or continued, but using the restart command will result in a new Job.
