Configuring virtual machines

For each virtual machine, specify details on how to perform various backup methods:
• For the Snapshot method, specify how to handle virtual machine snapshots that
are created during backup. Note that not all snapshot handling modes support
incremental and differential backups.
• For the VCBfile and VCBimage backup methods, specify which backup proxy
system and mount points should be used to back up virtual machines or filesystems.
• The Suspend backup method has no specifics.
You can configure each virtual machine separately or all together. Configuration
settings for virtual machines of the same datacenter are saved in a separate
configuration file on the Cell Manager. The file is named
VMwareManagementClient%DatacenterPath. It is used for all backup sessions
involving this particular datacenter.
To configure virtual machines, use the Data Protector GUI or CLI.
