Hi,

We'll be adding a few virtual servers (ESX  & Hyper-V) soon to our backup 
infrastructure (Networker version 7.5.1.4) .

Here are the questions I have: 

- Is it possible to backup a virtual machine's image (.vmdk file) without using 
VCB proxy ? We are going to use 'Virtual Edition Client" license per physical 
box.
  If so,  can I backup the .vmdk files while the virtual machine is running ?

Please advice.
