  • 1.  Is it possible to take backup of VDP data base

    Posted May 19, 2014 08:29 AM

    Is it possible to take backup of VDP data base on disk or tape ? Purpose is to save this database to a remote site, so that If VDP database gets corruput, VMs backed up by VDP can be restored.

    Thanks,

    Sanjeev
