On UNIX computers, you can also run driverless block-level backups without having to load the CVBF driver in the kernel. For more information on configuring driverless block-level backups, see Configuring Driverless Block-Level Backups.
Backups
Every driverless block-level backup job runs as a full backup job even if you select incremental backup. The CVBF driver does not monitor the incremental changes.
Synthetic full backup jobs are not supported.
Driverless block-level backups are not supported for NFS volumes.
Restores
In-place and out-of-place block-level restores are supported at file level and volume level.
Snapshot Support
Snapshots of hardware snapshot engines are supported. Native snapshot engines are not supported.
