Configuring virtual machines
For each virtual machine, specify details on how to perform various backup methods:
How to handle virtual machine snapshots created during backup. Note that not all snapshot
handling modes support incremental and differential backups.
(Windows virtual machines only) Whether a quiescence snapshot should be taken to make
applications consistent for backups.
The type of transport mode to be used during backups.
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.
Using the Data Protector GUI
You can specify details on how a virtual machine backup should be performed when you create
or modify a backup specification.
1. In the Source page of a backup specification, right-click the client system at the top or any of
the virtual machines listed below and click Configure Virtual Machines.
