Currently, I am running an esxi 4 box at home and even though it’s not a very efficient method of backing it up, I shut down all of my vms once a week and copy them over to another computer. I know that getting a paid version of the software enables this capability, but I am curious as to what everyone else does that doesn't have a paid license for backups.


Thanks
 
That looks good, but since it takes snapshots of the VM's, does that mean the VM's must be thick provisioned? I've noticed that if you take a snapshot of a thin disk it converts it to thick.
 
ignore that - it's just a GUI oddity, since delta files are technically thick disks that are COW.
