automatically into non-global zones.

excluded automatically.
• Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris is unable to perform file system indexing if multiple mlocate tools are

previous backup job session, Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris will create an active full backup.
2. Extract the contents of the installation archive to a directory that can be accessed from the machine where
you want to install the product. For example, this can be a directory in the local file system or an NFS
directory.

following command:
pkgadd -G -d ./VeeamAgent-2.1.0.277-i86pc.pkg
