Off-Host Proxies components required

Post by angelok1987 »

Hello All,

We want to backup VMs hosted on 10 Hyper-V 2016 servers. The 10 Hyper-V servers are all connected to a HPE 3PAR 8000 Storage array

We have 2 physical servers and we want to use them as off-host Proxies.

We would like to know if the Off-Host proxies or Production Hyper-V servers need any components (such as Storage array Drivers, etc) so that the Backup Jobs be performed properly.

Thanks.

You can find the requirements here (assuming you are using the HPE Storage as a SAN)

Hello,
and I strongly recommend to use on-host proxy if you want to have a happy life :-)

Actually with 3par the chances are relatively high to get it working, but I still wouldn't do it. Especially not for such a small environment.

Best regards,
Hannes
