Fellows,
I have a server running 3 VM's with Hyper-V, the VM's are always up and running.
I installed an external HD and I'm backing up to it all the data: System Data, C:(OS) and D:(VM disks).
The backup is been running fine for the last couple months, without failure, and I can see ALL the data that is getting backed up, as VSS copy backup.
My question is this, if ONE day I need to recover a specific file (lets say a file from the File Server VM, that was accidentally deleted), or something else more catastrophic happens, CAN I count on these backups for data retrieval? Or because the VM's are running they are not getting backed up?
