Hello All,
I've been asked by my manager to research how we can better backup our new vSphere (ESX4) environment.
I've read lots of white papers, articles and forum posts from both Veritas and VMware.
Please correct me if I am wrong. As far as I can tell, using Netbackup 6.5.4 and vSphere 4 you still need to use VCB and use a VCB proxy.
I know there are new features for Vmware Data Recovery but as far as I have read this does not change the fundamentals of our setup.
Boss lady is convinced (based on a sale presentation seen a few months back or something) that with 6.5.4 and vSphere 4 will integrate seamlessly and there is no need to use VCB proxy. She says I am just not doing enough research.
So, am I way off here or do we still need a VCB proxy to get proper file level backups of our Virtual Machines?
