I would like to hear from anyone that has been sucessful in this as well. We have essentially the same setup, with the 5.3 client installed.
Thanks, Andrew -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Schaub Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2005 10:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Vmware guest "hot" backups All, My team & I would be interested in speaking with anyone who has been successful in using TSM to backup/restore what the database folks would call a "hot" backup of VMWare guest machines (i.e. backing up the .vmdk files while the guest is in redo mode). We have run several test backup/restores, some less successful than others. We are using ESX 2.5 currently. If you have gotten this to work consistantly and would be willing to share your experience, please email me directly: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> thanks.
