Have a client running a 2016 server hosting multiple VM's. They use Windows Server backup - once the backup is done running the VM's all show Merge in Progress. One of the VM's is an Exchange 2016 server -it becomes unresponsive and mail stops flowing until the merge is finished (over 2 hours). Sometimes several Exchange services stop during the merge as well and have to be manually started after. Has anyone else seen this issue? Thinking about changing the backup to only the host physical drives to just pick up the VHD's - would that eliminate the merge issue?
