About VMware backups

The Unitrends Virtualization Protector protects all virtual machines in an ESX or vCenter setup. VMware virtual machines can be protected with either one-time backups or backup schedules. When creating schedules you can manually add virtual machines for protection or you can create filters. This section provides information about the requirements and considerations for successful protection of virtual machines.
