Hi Simon, Works fine, lasts a long time. You may notice some degradation in throughput on individual VM’s as opposed to physical servers but nothing a little careful scheduling can’t get you around. I really like the idea that my offsite backups are vmdk’s which can be restored and hooked up to any esx system. With windows VM’s you can also do granular restores. I hear in 7.1 we will be able to do the same with unix VM’s. We use this in conjunction with netapp smvi backups for our onsite backups. Very slick and very fast.
