Guest VMs

Post by marius roma »

A Windows 10 PC is used to host VMs via VMware Workstation and VirtualBox.
What is expected to happen if I install Veeam Agent for Windows (free version) and a VM is running?
Will the .vmdk files be cosistent or should I power down all the guest VMs before performing a backup?
Regards
Marius

Hi,

I assume if you will power down all the guest VMs, you should get consistent state of those vmdks at least it looks logical, but as I mentioned it only an assumption. Thanks!
