VMware Backup Process
Figure 1 shows the process for backing up VMware VMs.
- Download and install the eBackup image template: Download the eBackup image template before backing up VMware VMs. For details, see Downloading the eBackup Image Template and Installing eBackup.
- Configure eBackup: Configure eBackup after the installation. For details, see Configuring the Backup Server.
- Prepare the environment: After eBackup is configured, prepare the environment by referring to Adding a VMware Protected Environment. Also, you need to purchase a hybrid cloud backup vault on the console. Then create a storage unit, storage pool, and a vault in eBackup. For details, see Purchasing a Hybrid Cloud Backup Vault.
- Perform VMware backup: After the preparations are complete, you can back up VMware data. For details, see Creating a Protected Set.
- Restore data using the backups: Use the backup data of the VM disks to restore to the original VM or another VM, or synchronize the backup data to the cloud and then restore to servers on the cloud using the backups. For details, see Restoring VM Disks to the Original VM.
