• Types of backup destination VMware Data Recovery

  IM test VMware Data Recovery and reading it can save to different destinations. Here's a sentence from of the Administrator's guide.

  You can store backups on network, VMDK shares, or RDM.

  The only option I see is the network share and make a folder called VMwareDataRecovery with other files and folders in it. If I backup more 1 VM to this nextwork share looks like it mixes everything together. I was under the impression that you can save in a file single vdmk.

  The only options I have under VMware Data Recovery for Destinations are Refresh, add a share of Nework, Format, Mount, Unmount, Extend and integrity check

  Remove you it from the virtual computer by means of the settings?  If so, have you selected the option to remove the virtual machine and remove the disc?  If you have them removed from the virtual computer through the settings, then you can delete browser data store.  It will come to your space.  Also, see IO errors is because you took the disk to the virtual machine without removing firstly by vDR Console's Configuration.

  That said, I would do the following:

  1. Ensure that the VM vDR does not any VMDK attached other than the VMDK root which is 5 GB in size.

  2. Open the browser of data store and make sure that the former VMDK you created have disappeared.  If not, select them and click on delete.

  3. Go to the Configuration Console for vDR and look at Destinations of backup to make sure there is nothing there.  There should be nothing in the list of destinations, if there are, remove them.

  4. After checking the above, create a new size 15GB VMDK.

  5. Restart your virtual machine of vDR

  6. Go into the Console to Setup vDR and select the disk that you created in the backup Destinations, do a right click and select format.

  7. The size should report something similar to what my screenshot of previous shows.

  I would like to know if that works for you!

• Consistency of backup in vmware data recovery

  Hi all

  We deploy a vDR to ensure the backup disk 2 for a client infrastructure aprox 70VMs and VSphere 5, all with enough license to use vDR. This environment has many Lotus Domino and SQL Server, which are critical servers.

  
  Does anyone has tested vDR for SQL and Lotus Domino servers? What backup consistency? Is enough VSS to ensure consistency in both environments, or simply for Ms SQL (like Lotus not Ms App)...

  I would be very happy if someone could paste on the real tests.

  Thanks in advance.

  Julio Rosua

  Hello.

  Is enough VSS to ensure consistency in both environments, or simply for Ms SQL (like Lotus not Ms App)...

  VSS is enough with some combinations of SQL and Windows - read here for more information.  Domino will be crash consistent.  Crash consistent backups Domino are generally good, but if you 100% must depend on her, then, it would be better to get an agent installed for Domino.

  Good luck!

• Differences between POS and Vmware data recovery

  Hi, I wonder if vSphere5.1 has changed the name of recovering data vmware VMware Data Protection (WTP).

  I found that the download link illustrates the Vmware data recovery before vSphere5.0 and Vmware data protection after vSphere5.1.

  I think the same goes for Vmware recvoery data POS, but I want to confirm here.

  Hello

  You can find more information here: https://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/products/vsphere/VMware-vSphere-Data-Protection-Product-FAQ.pdf

  Replace protection data of vSphere VMware Data Recovery?

  Yes. vSphere Data Protection replaces the legacy VMware

  In vSphere data recovery function. vSphere Data Protection

  provides equivalent to VMware Data Recovery scalability with

  a stronger and more effective backup engine.

• VMware Data Recovery 2 in a vCenter Server

  Hi all

  I need a base backup of VMS backup solution. I know that each camera VDR is bounded to vCenter server, you might not use vcenter several with one camera VDR. But in a sense the opposite? I use several VDR devices with a vCenter server? I know about the limits of the VDR and probably I can achieve limit of 2 TB and only solution in this case use another camera VDR, but I don't know if it is possible to use more than a VDR with a vCenter.

  You can use up to 10 of VDR with a VirtualCenter.

  Look at the "VMware Data Recovery Administration Guide" on page 16:

  Special data recovery Compatibility Considerations:

  Ten aircraft recovery backup of data for each instance of vCenter server.

• Deduplication before vSphere VMware data recovery 4

  Hi people,

  I decided to give a try to the Vmware Data Recovery product. I have recently updated our 3.5 ESX to vSphere 4. I installed the plugin for recovering data and the device, and I think that it does not work as it is supposed to, but I have a question.

  I read the documentation about the product to recover data and on page 8 of the admin guide, there is a note on the optimizations not applied to virtual machines created with vmware vSphere products 4.

  I vmotioned my machines windows and upgarded their vmware tools and equipment of 7 virtual machine. I was wondering these machines were created with ESX 3.5 and now that I've migrated to vSphere 4, doesn't that mean that deduplication will not take place with data recovery products when I'm in my data store backup? or am I misunderstanding this?

  Thank you.

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  Once you upgrade older VMS v4 to v7 hardware virtual machine, then they are the same.  Discover the answer of amina in this discussion.

• vSphere includes VMware Data Recovery... correct?

  I was looking at the VMware data recovery product and it is pretty cool... until I saw that you had to buy it.  Then I saw this:

  "VMware Data Recovery is included in vSphere Enterprise Plus, advancedand Essentials Plus editions"

  But we have 'Enterprise '.  So I can't imagine you advanced include this product, but Enterprise does not work?  Are not undertaken a step upwards to advanced?  Then shouldn't company not also understand this?  According to me, it's a bit unfair - but I hope it's just a bad impression.

  SB

  You are right in saying that the company includes Data Recovery. Go to the link below for comparisons of editing:

• Backup integration with VMware Data Recovery (VDR) tape - how to guide

  Hi all

  It's just something I've had a lot of people ask me about this.

  Here is an article on using VDR tape backup. It's actually very simple, there is no rocket science here, but it might be useful to the have exposed again.

  FWIW, I used your great white paper today, Peter, with a lot of success in testing applications third VDR.  Discovered VDR is actually much faster and easier to work, especially for the backup of NAS devices.  Thx for the link!

• VMware data recovery high CPU, all backup IDLE tasks

  Hello

  Today, I noticed that data recovery is very active, but all my backup jobs are inactive.  According to the top in the VM data recovery:

  

  The CPU seems busy, and all hearts across this ESXi host are fortification at 85%, with an average of 15%.  What could cause this?  I don't want just restart the virtual machine without understanding what is happening.

  I allocated 2 virtual processors and 2048 MB of mem for vDR.

  vDR version: 1.2.1.1616

  vSphere 4.1u1

  Thank you

  It could have been a check re-indexing, recover or integrity. If a re-indexing running backup jobs will not start. Validate through the logs of vDR.

• Available in the company VMware data recovery?

  I'm trying to figure if VMware Data Recovery is available with the Enterprise license.

  If you see that the page VDR says that it is only available in Enterprise Plus, advanced and Essentials Plus Edition.

  http://www.VMware.com/products/data-recovery/

  But if you check that page compare shows THAT VDR is available in Advanced and Enterprise.

  Brennan-

  Data recovery is available for download from vSphere ESX(I) and vCenter Server downloads.  Download of data recovery will include a device to the OVF format, a vCenter plug-in and a restoration of file system component.  There is a simple installation guide, but basically, install the vCenter Plugin on your client computer, import the OVF, Plugin allows you to configure the device of data recovery.

  Let me know if you get stuck - I can give you advice a little more if you have a specific problem.

  Hello

  I give a try to VMware Data Recovery. So I installed the plugin on my XP SP3 computer.

  But since then, everytime I lauch VI client to step «Discover plugins...» ', it asks me to choose a debugger (with a unique choice of Microsoft Script Editor) and I must decline 10 times before it will work eventually. VMware support told me to install or reinstall my computer, but I'd rather have it run without a reinstall.

  Someone at - it an idea on how to solve this problem?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

• Understand planning for VMWare Data Recovery

  Hello

  Under VSphere 4.1.0 with vmware data recovery, through Assistant I generated a planned not here are the features in the attached screenshots backup task.

  I came back the next day, I saw that the backups are done at 8 in the evening (20: 00), but no time, it is written in Wizard I see slots... so where can I see the task of recording time son? and/or what are these slots in the end?

  

  Thanks in advance

  Hey North Carolina,

  It is precisely one of the problems of VDR: you don't master's degrees not starting backup time! You define time slots during which the backup can take place. Then, the VDR system decides alone when launch the backups. The only thing you're on, it's that no backup takes place during the time slot prohibited (in grey in interface).

  Good luck.

• VmWare data recovery and work with independent labels

  I read on a forum: If you want to drive the snapshot of the virtual machine is not affected, in its properties, select the "independent". Moreover, if the virtual computer is 'Independent' disks, the snapshot cannot be included in his memory.

  There was a question if the readers to all virtual machines 'Independent', would work "VmWare Data recovery?

  I'm not sure about my discoveries. SO please don't take this as a solution to your problem. My conclusions are:

  When you start to take a vDR of backing up a virtual computer that is configured with an independent record, it will not be successful. As vDR is used to take a snapshot in order to perform the backup of a virtual computer. If the capture is here, Independent disks prevents taking snapshot.

• How many vmware data recovery machines possible?

  Hello

  is it possible to use more than one computer of vmware data recovery? I need because the vmdr is limited to two destinations and I need one more backup on a USB key.

  Greetings

  Gregor

  According to VMware Data Recovery requirements

  Ten aircraft of backup data recovery for each instance of vCenter Server

  However. I don't think that storage device USB is supported as a store of deduplication.
