At VMware KB: Best practices when using advanced transport for backup and restore it says "SAN transport is supported only on a physical machine". I'm wondering why this is, and if there are any ways to work around it? It seems that for iSCSI, the SAN transport could work in a VM since everything is going over a standard network stack instead of Fibre Channel. I am using iSCSI datastores and would like to test my VADP tool in a VM since that's more convenient.
Thanks
