I'm not a vmware specialst, only the guy who has to backup the images. It's working fine for me. Only 1 parameter has to be changed: directory used to export the images. For more info, check the script itself and/or mail me. I changed the script on my laptop and added extra info so I hope I didn't corrupted it. Stef
