Moving VM to new CSV on a SOFS = Full backup

Post by ivoneta »

Hi

I've noticed when I move a VM from one host to another on my 2012 r2 cluster it processes the job as an incremental, but when I move the VM storage to a new CSV on the same scale out file server it processes the VM as a full backup.

Should moving VM storage to a new CSV result in a full backup of that VM.

Yep, it's by design.
