Recommendations:
Veritas recommends that you have minimum 8 GB RAM to backup or restore data more than 16 TB

Known Limitations:

  • With Veritas System Recovery 16, you can backup and restore up to 32 TB data only for a 64-bit operating system.
  • Veritas System Recovery 16 does not support backups or restores that take more than 72 hours using the Veritas System Recovery Disk, because of the WinPE limitation.
  • If a backup or restore takes more than 72 hours, Veritas recommends that you restore the system volumes only using the Veritas System Recovery Disk and then continue with volumes more than 16 TB in Veritas System Recovery 16.
  • Physical to Virtual (P2V) conversion to VMware ESXi (P2V to VMDK) is not supported for more than 2 TB volumes from Veritas System Recovery. Refer to the following article for additional information about this issue.
