VI3.5 Backups
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008Edward L. Haletky has put together a rather comprehensive overview document of backups in a VMware virtualised environment that can be found here on vmprofessional.
It covers everything from the speed of the backups to level of compression gained using the following tools:
- VCB (Included with VMware ESX)
- Vizioncore vRanger (~£300 per ESX host socket)
- PHD esXpress (between £250-£1000 per ESX host)
- HP VMM (Free, of sorts)
The article really does go into great detail, even discussing each tool in depth after the comparison matrix.
It is an ongoing document so hopefully it will include Veeam Backup in the next release.
