To do a file level backup (if you don't use vcb) you'll have to have a client 
installed on the vm, somebody please let me know if I'm wrong.. :)  If you're 
using 7.6 you can do an image level backup and do an image level restore or a 
file level restore (windows only on the file level restore from an image 
backup).

Also with 7.6 if you have vmware converter version 3 (version 4 not supported) 
you can do a "one step" vm recovery, which is really nice if you have to 
restore a full image..  Geez.. I sound like a salesman.. :)

Subject: [Networker] VM image level backup without VCB ?

Thanks for the info.

I thought 'installing virtual edition client license' (without VCB) will allow 
both file level  & image level backups. ?
