Hyper-V, CSV, Serialization, & RC

  • Follow


Has anything changed in regards to Hyper-V, CSV, & Serialization with
regards to the DPM 2010 RC (compared to the BETA)?  I have not been
able to find the documentation for the RC, but the documentation
included with the BETA says:

It is recommended that virtual machines deployed on CSV should be
backed up serially.
Note:  This behavior is specific to the Beta release.

If you are using hardware VSS providers you will not need to serialize 
backups using the datasource grouping xml or setting any reg keys. Out of 
the box DPM will be able to backup the VMs. You will need to install Windows 
hotfix KB975354 and KB975921 on the cluster nodes so that you can backup 
multiple VMs at the same time. A tested list of hardware vss providers is 
listed below.

If you are not using hardware VSS providers you will have to serialize the 
backups as mentioned in the beta documentation.
