a) Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Hyper-V -
1)Would that need to be installed on the Host machine only or every guest machine?
Ans: When you get the license key for the Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Hyper-V you will have to install that License key in Backup Exec and install the RAWS on the physical machine which has Hyper-V on it ( no need to install RAWS if Hyper-V and Backup Exec are on same machine).
When RAWS is install on that machine it will automatically query the Hyper-V writers and will show the Virtual machines for backups.
Nothing is required to be done on the Guest mahcine unless you want to use the Application GRT option.
Here is the technote which you can refer about the Best Pratices http://support.veritas.com/docs/340837
2)Would it allow live backup of any Microsoft OS guest machine (2003, 2008 etc)? Ans: Yes. It will allow Live backup of Microsoft OS guest machibe (2003, 2008) b) Isn't RAWS just a file level backup made from the guest machines? Ans: True thats is required for file level backups but if you have the License keys for any other applications like Exchange, SQL then also RAWS will be required.
