Virtual Disk Mount
API
To perform file based restore, you can use
the disk mount API (
vixMntapi
) for
local and remote mounting of virtual disks. VixMntapi involves a separate
library for programs to load.
As of VDDK 6.7.1, the
VixMntapi library for Windows and Linux supports NBDSSL, HotAdd, and SAN
transport. For earlier VDDK versions, and when used with earlier vSphere
releases, the
vixMntapi
library for
Linux supported only file and NBD transport.
