SEP sesam OS and Database Support Matrix

Overview

The support matrix lists all configurations and versions currently available by SEP sesam and SEP IT-Save. SEP sesam automatically detects the hardware configuration of your environment. Note that SEP sesam only recognizes storage devices that are known to or listed by the operating system, such as OS where the Master Server/Remote Device Server will be installed. For details, see Storage Hardware page.
See also the new Release Notes v. 5.1.0 Apollon.

	Note
	SEP sesam Client versions that are last available for a platform, are still supported.

SEP sesam Backup Servers and Clients

It is recommended to upgrade the SEP sesam Server and Client components to the latest version as part of the regular upgrade process (check the list of SEP sesam release versions). This ensures the highest possible protection of the SEP sesam Clients. Customers with a valid license are entitled to a free SEP sesam upgrade for each new version until the end of the license term. Before upgrading your SEP sesam environment, check the support matrix.

Object Storage

SEP sesam Release Versions

As of version 5.0.0.x Jaglion, SEP sesam supports S3 as a generic interface based on the new deduplication store Si3 NG.
Some S3 targets are already supported, others have been looked at in more detail (see list below) and are currently being tested.

Vendor	Type	Status Notea
AWS	S3 Public Cloud	Supported
Clyso	S3 Public Cloud	Supported Notec
EL Storage	S3 Public Cloud	Certified
IBM Cloud	S3 Public Cloud	Supported
Wasabi	S3 Public Cloud	Certified

Vendor	Type	Status
Microsoft Azure	Blob Storage	Supported Noteb

Note^a

SEP sesam Si3 NG can be used with various S3-compatible cloud implementations. The configuration and management of Si3 NG in an S3-compatible cloud implementation is similar to the example shown in Backup to S3 Cloud Storage. Note, however, that only some S3-compatible cloud environments have already been validated by SEP, while others may not work in some cases. You are solely responsible for using SEP sesam in a non-S3 compatible cloud environment and agree that SEP shall not be responsible for it.

Note^b

Supported as of ≥ 5.0.0.9 Jaglion V2.

Note^c

Supported as of ≥ 5.1.0.7 Apollon.

Note

Systems that use UEFI as a boot loader are currently only supported on SLES On SLES creating a UEFI-bootable recovery image is only possible with additional packages. For details, see UEFI. Virtual machines running on XEN cannot be backed up with SEP sesam BSR solution The resulting ISO image containing a paravirtualized kernel is not bootable. Please use the SEP Sesam Citrix XEN module for Citrix XEN Server to create a consistent and relevant backup for a disaster recovery. Power PC For PowerPC and Linux One Systems, contact SEP sesam sales. These architectures may not work out of the box or require special configuration. Consultation for these systems is available according to the price list.

VMware

SEP sesam Release Versions

As the VMware version information can be changed by VMware, SEP recommends to check the VMware Product Interoperability Matrix.

VMware version Note a	Supported VDDK Note b	SEP sesam Release Versions	Limitations
vSphere 8.0	VDDK 7.0.3 (manual update required) Note d	5.1.0 Apollon	Check VMware VDDK 8.0.1 Release Notes for compatibility and issues.
vSphere 7.0	VDDK 7.0.3 (manual update required) Note d	5.0.0 Jaglion	Check VMware VDDK 7.0.3 Release Notes for compatibility and issues.
vSphere 7.0	VDDK 6.5.2 (see limitations!) Note c	4.4.3 Beefalo V2 (see limitations!)	vSphere 7.0 with VDDK 6.5.2 is not officially supported by VMware. However, some customers are backing up vSphere 7.0 with Beefalo version 2, which contains VDDK 6.5.2. Although this version of VDDK is not officially supported for vSphere 7.0, it appears to work. Note that any issues related to the use of this officially unsupported version are the responsibility of the user and not SEP sesam or VMware.
vSphere 6.7 (supported proxy OS)	VDDK 6.5.2 (manual update required) VDDK 6.0.3 (manual update required)	4.4.3 Grolar and Beefalo	Check VMware VDDK 6.7 Release Notes for compatibility and issues.
vSphere 6.5 (supported proxy OS)	VDDK 6.5.2 (manual update required) VDDK 6.0.3 (included in SEP sesam Windows client ≥ 4.4.3.48) VDDK 6.0.2 (included in SEP sesam Windows client ≤ 4.4.3.42)	4.4.3 Tigon and Tigon V2 (4.4.3.42-.48)
vSphere 6.0	VDDK 6.0.2	≤ 4.4.2.66
vSphere 5.5	VDDK 5.5 – 5.5.5	4.4.2
vSphere 5.1	VDDK 5.1	≤ 4.4.1
vSphere 5.0	VDDK 5.0	≤ 4.4.1

Note^a

As of VMware vSphere 5, backup with SEP sesam is only supported with a licensed ESXi hypervisor. Backup of ESXi 5.5 hypervisors is supported as of SEP sesam version 4.2.2.40.

Note^b

The VMware policy concerning backward and forward compatibility is for VDDK to support N-2 and N+1 releases (except for new features). For example,

• VDDK 7.0 (and all its update releases) supports vSphere 6.0, 6.5 and 8.0,
• VDDK 6.0 (and all its update releases) supports vSphere 5.1, 5.5, and 6.5.

Note^c

VDDK 6.5.2 was tested by VMware with the following operating systems to perform proxy backup:

• Windows Server 2008 R2
• Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2
• Windows Server 2016
• Windows 10
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux; RHEL 6.7, 6.8, 7.2 and 7.3
• SUSE Linux Enterprise Server; SLES 11 SP4 and SLES 12 SP1

Note^d

VDDK 7.0.3 supports the following operating systems:

• Windows Server 2019
• Windows Server 2016, including versions 1709 and 1803
• Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux RHEL 7.7, 8.0 and 8.3
• CentOS 7.7 and 8.3
• SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES 12 SP5 and 15 SP1
