[THIN] OT: VMWare backups

Esxpress is a good product. We just had to do a server restore from a
corrupted database and the incrementals worked just fine to roll us back 4 days.
The best method of backup is a combination, i.e. traditional agent inside the
virtual machine and a product like esxpress to grab the vmdk files et al at the
linux level.
Both methods provide a pretty decent level of coverage.

Hi
We use Esxpress ( esxpress.com) and have been pretty happy with it.
Good Luck

we're backing up each virtual at their OS level, looking a vRanger to do a
back-end snapshot backup. Of course BUE 12.5 was just released which is
supposed to support vmware (and hyper-v) too.
