We currently are trying to figure out how to configure our Backup Exec server for optimal backup process which now takes about 13hours for a full backup with around 900gb of data. However I haven't implimented VMWare servers yet. What's the best practice for backing up VMWare ESXi? We would like it to where when we restore the server we can backup the VMDK files. I do have the VMWare addon for backup exec selected for backing up my VM's however it fails with a 0xe000955b error cannot run vcbmounter.exe, which I'm pretty sure is VMware Consolidated Backup. I'm not sure exactly how to set that up on the VM's or if that's the way I should be backing them up. Anyone have any suggestions or best practices for me?
