This document provides compatibility information for the following applications that interoperate with EMC Data Domain Boost (DD Boost) technology: u EMC Avamar u Pivotal Greenplum Data Computing Appliance u EMC NetWorker u Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) u Quest NetVault u Quest vRanger Pro u Symantec Backup Exec u Symantec NetBackup The document also provides compatibility information for the following hardware items and devices: u Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters u Fibre Channel Switches and Directors Application compatibility tables are provided for the vendors and applications in the following list. Compatibility tables are provided for the hardware devices in the following list. Changes in this Update Added u Newly supported applications: l Pivotal Greenplum Database 4.3.1 on page 12 l EMC NetWorker 8.2—DD Boost over FC on page 14 l Symantec Backup Exec 2014 on page 29 Changed u Updated compatibility tables: l EMC NetWorker 8.2 on page 13 l EMC NetWorker 8.1.1 on page 14 l EMC NetWorker 8.1.1—DD Boost over FC on page 15 l EMC NetWorker 8.1 on page 15 l EMC NetWorker 8.1—DD Boost over FC on page 16 l Quest NetVault 9.2 on page 26 l Quest vRanger Pro 7.0 on page 28 Removed u 2 No changes EMC DD Boost Compatibility Guide EMC Data Domain Boost Compatibility Guide Compatibility with Future Patch and Maintenance Versions of Applications Future patch and maintenance versions of the applications listed in this document are expected to be compatible with the DD OS versions listed in the tables for each application. Specifically, this implies that EMC Data Domain may not necessarily test or qualify a future version of the application and does not guarantee ongoing compatibility. The application, including future versions, will be supported by EMC Data Domain; troubleshooting and analysis will take place until EMC Data Domain determines that the cause of the problem is a change in a future version. At this point, EMC Data Domain reserves the right to request a downgrade to a known, working solution. Do not assume that new features or work flows that come with new patch or maintenance versions are compatible with EMC Data Domain unless specifically identified as such. Managed File Replication Version Compatibility Policy DD Boost supports bidirectional managed file replication as follows. You can implement bidirectional file replication between Data Domain source and destination systems that are within two release families of each other, so long as the DD Boost plug-in version used is compatible with both the source and destination DD OS versions. The DD Boost plug-in is compatible with the DD OS version it accompanies, the preceding DD OS version, and the following DD OS version. This table illustrates the compatibility: Table 1 DD Boost Plug-in and DD OS Versions DD Boost Plug-in Version DD OS Accompanying Version Prior DD OS Version Following DD OS Version 2.2 4.9 4.8 5.0 2.3 5.0 4.9 5.1 2.4 5.1 5.0 5.2 2.5 5.2 5.1 5.3 and 5.4 2.6 5.3 and 5.4 5.2 5.4 and 5.5 3.0 5.5 5.4 5.5 For example, the DD Boost 2.3.x plug-in is compatible with DD OS versions 4.9.x, 5.0.x, and 5.1.x. Therefore, when you use the DD Boost 2.3.x plug-in, you can implement bidirectional managed file replication between Data Domain systems running DD OS 4.9.x and DD OS 5.1.x. But you cannot implement bidirectional managed file replication between Data Domain systems running DD OS 5.0.x and DD OS 5.2.x or between systems running DD OS 5.0.x and DD OS 4.8.x because the DD Boost 2.3.x plug-in is not compatible with DD OS 5.2.x or 4.8.x according to the compatibility policy. How to Use the Tables in this Document Perform the following procedure to determine which versions of third party applications and components are compatible with specific EMC Data Domain Operating System (DD OS) versions and to obtain additional information needed to determine compatibility of a desired configuration. Compatibility with Future Patch and Maintenance Versions of Applications 3 Compatibility Guide Procedure 1. Find the table for the desired application and version in the application tables. 2. Verify that an entry exists for the desired operating system version and CPU architecture (platform) in the table. 3. Ensure the Data Domain system is running at the specified DD OS version in the DD OS column and the specified DD Boost version in the DD Boost column.
