@scottalanmiller I just had a phone conversation with Craig at Backup Assist (they are members of this forum I believe). They are in the process of rolling out a product that may fit our needs. He's going to do some research and schedule a call. I will keep you in the loop.

Just curious, what is unique about your needs that their Multisite Manager didn't address?

I'm not sure. When Craig called me and asked about what I was looking for, he mentioned that they are coming out with a new product in the very near future that may work the best. I haven't explored any further than that at this point.

Based on our conversation here, this may be all you need.

BackupAssist however is just a wrapped Management of Windows Server Backup, I used to recommend it but ever since using Veeam I have not moved back. The free version is phenomenal of the Veeam Backup Agent and if you have Exchange or SQL you can still pay for it or use the free up to 10 Community edition.

It's so much more than a wrapper.

Should be its own thread, but do you know of anything similar for Linux?

Hey @JaredBusch if you Google about converting Hyper-V to KVM, this is Google's built in process now! They link this article as the "official" Google chosen reference document for this process!

Good find.

@travisdh1 said in Moving Hyper-V VMs from C to D?:

@siringo Right-click the VM, select Move, fill out the wizard. It's quick, easy, and can be done live.

@travisdh1 thanks so much for the help, sounds like I'll be going ahead with this.

Thanks again.

@JaredBusch said in Dashrender why did you migrate to Hyper-V from XenServer:

The XCP-NG team is a team that had a horrible business model that they were trying to implement around XenServer (XOA). Great concept, poor business model.

I wish them well but they are fighting a few things...

Citrix couldn't make any real money even when they charged more and people were taking the product seriously.

Last time I checked they were just replacing some management components and packaging some storage stuff. They are not investing in upstream and there's a lot of... changes coming in hardware that are going to require non-trivial investments for hypervisors to remain relevant.

The real problem with Xen is upstream investment is drying up. Citrix has pulled back, Amazon and other cloud providers have moved on to KVM, SuSE doesn't even market virtualization (SAP HANA support, containers, OS is as close to bare metal as they get). Outside of some people in ARM/automotive virtualization I haven't seen anyone picking it up for net new projects. In the enterprise Oracle is the only champion of it these days. KVM won the open source hypervisor war (although at this point does anyone really care?)

All of the above and more but done in PowerShell on our KB site.

I've posted that before.
