This document explains howto backup virtual machines running on Vmware ESX or Infrastructure server.
Checklist
1. Consider the above picture as our environment.
2. Download and install Vmware Consolidated Backup Proxy.
3. Keep in mind that VCB will be our interface to virtual machines, they’re not directly backed up.
4. Have your SAN configuration set up, and Both NBU master server and Vmware server are at the same LUNs
5. If you’re using newest VCB versions VCB management port is 443, not 902
6. Have your NBU master server installed and configured correctly (Storage devices, Tape drives, robots etc)
