I'm currently evaluating the vSphere Essentials kit with 3 physical servers, each running ESXi 5.5 with a total of 16 virtual machines.
What are my backup options, without spending another 500 on licenses for backup software?
I'd like to:
- clone each vm over night, without powering the vm off
- transfer the files to another host
- schedule tasks, has to be run automatically
Is this possible?
