Hello,

 

I am planning a VCB deployment and would like to know how others handle their Linux virtual server backups.  Since you can’t do an image level incremental back for Linux hosts, do you run a full backup every night for your Linux hosts?  Do you use a hybrid method with an image level backup and a client in the virtual server to get file level restores?  Has anyone tried doing image level restores for Linux virtual servers to recover individual files?  How well does this process work?  What are the challenges you have encountered in your implementation?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Dwayne Adams
