Reasons for Server virtualisation
many physical server low CPU-utilization
few physical server high CPU-utilization

Challenges in VMware environments More data to backup Less bandwidth Short backup window
New Paradigm: High overall server utilization, but low bandwidth for backup
Old Paradigm: Low overall utilization and plenty of bandwidth for backup
% CPU Busy (8 LCPVs w/HT)

Questions to answer:
How to do Backup and restore in a virtual machine (WM)? How to backup an individual VM?
What level of backup do I need – what level of restore is necessary ? Consistent Snapshot
Crash consistent VM File consistent Application consistent
User related data (VM level, file level, application level, record level (e.g. mailbox))
How to handle Backup traffic and backup window? How to reduce storage overhead (de-duplication)? What are real benefits through integration of feature sets from other layers?

Overview: possible backup methods
Agent in VM VMware Data Recovery vStorage API (DP)
For 1 - 20 VM's 100 to 1000VM's more than 20 Host's or 500 VM's
Similar to physical processes VMware standard processLAN based SAN based
Low performance High performanceLong backup window Very short backup window
Agents for Applications as Option Not application aware Only with agents application
aware
High ressource consumption Low-Medium Ressource consumption Low ressource consumption
License costs can growth high Low license costs Medium license costs
common working with physical servers Only for VMware
Optimized for VMware, common usage of infrastructure
Backup destination: disk and tape
Backup destination: disk only Backup destination: disk and tape
3 common methods with VMware*
* Method “Agent in ESX host” - Terminated with vSphere 5

Mixed vStorage API and Agent solution
Agents are a burden for the host but not in combination with vStorage APIs (here no backup workload on the agents) Agents are necessary for consistency
Backup must be a dedicated server (not running as a VM!)Using vStorage API’s for fast and efficient backupvStorage API’s not available for a Ethernet backup networkVMware Agent is a license key for using API installed on the
backup serverAgents realizes consistent data and selected item restoreApplication aware backup through Add-on Options for
