Post´s answer basiclly said TSM supports Windows 2008 under the assumption the agent is installed on every virtual server. You might like the approach above but I would prefer a more centralized way to do backups of virtual servers, ex. like Vmware Consolidated Backup. Since Post knows alot of organizations running TSM & W2k8, he might be able to share his thoughts on a backup strategy for HyperV?

I've meant on the Host machine - to backup each VM as a file (kind of an image).
