VMware Backup
• VMware Transport Mode

• SAN
• HotAdd
• NBD SSL
• NBD
• Backup Proxy
• SAN
• Physical
• FC access
• HotAdd
• Virtual
• access to the same datastore as the target virtual machine

Automatic Protection
• VMware
• Cluster
• Resource Pool
• Data Center / ESX
• Folder (Hosts & VM and Templates view)
• Tags
• Ability to exclude VM’s in a container

Adding Nodes for agentless backup
• Import from vCenter / ESX

Protection Plan - Backup: Host-Based Agentless
• Lets you protect virtual machines

without installing an agent on each
individual guest.
• Virtualization
• VMware
• Microsoft Hyper-V
• Nutanix AHV
• Lets you perform the following restore

of vm’s:
• File-level
• Application-level
• Recover Virtual Machine

Backup Proxy
• For Host-Based Agentless backup, a “proxy” is required
• The proxy will run the actual backup process

• Act as the agent for the backup
• The “agent” deduplicates data while sending to the RPS
• The proxy can be: VMware Hyper-V Nutanix AHV
RPS Server  
Hyper-V “parent partition” (physical) 
Virtual Guest   

Exclude virtual disks

Take snapshot without quiescing
• Crash-consistent backup
• Captured all of the virtual machine's data at
exactly the same time
• don't work nearly as well for database
applications because they do not capture data in
memory or any pending I/O operations.
• Application-consistent backup
• Capture all data in memory and all transactions in
process.
• Check release note / user guide on pre-requisite
for VMware & Microsoft HyperV

Instant Virtual Machine (IVM)
• Creates a virtual machine instantly from a recovery point.

• Advantage:
• provides an immediate access to data and applications present in the Arcserve UDP backup sessions.
• eliminates the downtime associated with a traditional restore or conversion of the backup session to a physical
or virtual machine.
• Supported platform
• Windows
• Linux
• Ability to resume recovery after IVM

BMR
• Physical or Non-supported virtualization target
