Remote Registry

Hi All,

For a successfull VSS backup, is the Remote REgistry service required to be started on the windows VMs?

Thanks

Hi Werner, no this should not be required with v5. But, please be sure that you are using the latest version (5.0.2) as it added some enhancements in functionality that makes it possible. Previous versions may fail in cases when processed VM is reachable over network, but other things (such as disabled Remote Registry) prevent guest interaction. And in 5.0.2 we made failover to network-less guest interaction more reliable for certain special cases. Thanks.
