Hello All
We are running our backup environment with the below details-
NBU master server : 7.1.0.4(Winodws 2008 R2 Standard)
Media Server: 7.1.0.4(Winodws 2008 R2 Standard)
VM backup host : 7.1.0.4(Winodws 2008 R2 Standard)
VM clients : 7.1
vCenter : 5.0
ESX : 5.0
We are taking VMware backups using VADP technology and the backups are running fine.
As per Wintel team, VDDK is not installed in our VM servers. We are not sure whether the backups which are happening successful are the appropriate ones or not.
We have tested the restore and it was successful.
Could you please let us know, can we take the VMware backups without VDDK installed in either vCenter or in ESX server ?.Or it is required to have VDDK installed on the VMware servers to have the backups in place.
Please let us know the way to findout the VDDK version.
Thanks in Advance.
