Dell EMC Avamar for Windows Servers 19.7 User Guide
System requirements
The environment must meet client compatibility requirements before you install Avamar client software.
Client compatibility requirements are available in the E-LAB Navigator at https://elabnavigator.dell.com/eln/elnhome. The requirements in the matrix include supported operating systems and application versions. The Avamar Client for Windows supports most editions of Microsoft Windows.
The Avamar Client for Windows supports backup and restore of only file system data for Windows Vista computers. BMR of Windows Vista computers is not supported.
The Avamar file system client and the plug-ins that you install on the host must have the same version number.
The environment must also meet other requirements, such as file system requirements, cluster requirements, hardware requirements, VSS requirements, networking requirements, Microsoft .NET Framework 4 requirements, and anti-virus requirements.
