Hi All,
I am busy moving esx virtual exchange servers to hyperv. I want to be able to do host and guest level backups of the exchange vm. My concern is that on the host level backup of the virtual exchange servers that it will truncate the log files and I will have problems when the giuest level exchange backups run due to the "missing" log files.
I have looked at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/975354 but the hotfix apparently does not apply to my host server 2008 r2 datacentre. Also the registry entry does not exist.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Virtualization\VssRequestor
Name: BackupType
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0 or 1
It tells me to create the entry, but I think it refers to the entry BackupType but I do not even have Virtualization\VssRequestor. Must I create the whole entry or am I missing something here.
Would also like to hear how other people combine the host and guest level backup of exchange virtual servers (2003\2007\2010) and what schedules they run.
Please advise.
