Hopefully Legato will come out with something accordingly. Probably want to look into ESX ranger to do a copy of the VMX, VMDK to another box at an offsite for DR. Its silly that EMC owns Vmware pretty much and they cant get a client that will work with the ESX OS which is just a flavor of RedHat.

Is there a solution that does not have to have the VM in a stopped state? Bob Fronk This email and any attached files are confidential and intended solely for the intended recipient(s).
