      @scottalanmiller That's creepy as all hell.

      You should see goats up close dude!! So much creepier than sheep.

      Go to a livestock auction sale bard the night before with no lights on....... growing up the largest livestock auction in Ohio was in the same town as the high school I went to. Thursdays you didn't want to be anywhere near the place.

        Sheep only a few feet from my front door here, and when I was in Greece it was all you herd (pun intended) all night.

            Nice. When the electric fence failed (often), we'd wake up to fresh milk mooing in the yard.

            PS - Think we can take this soon by Veem thing to far? 😛

              I'm always forgetting that Veeam Endpoint will handle this. At least for the Windows servers.

              Which Veeam product is that, exactly?

                I kind of answered my own question. The "Endpoint Backup" product they have they say is for desktop and latops, but then they say...

                "Veeam Endpoint Backup FREE is Veeam's new backup solution for Windows-based computers (desktops & laptops) running Windows 7 and higher as well as Windows Server 2008 and higher."

                Is this the product you mean?

                      Yes. Linux support is coming soon. So will be pretty broad once that arrives.

                        Don't they have another free product just for servers? (Or VMs?)

                          Veeam has the 1TB free for anything I believe.

                          I'm pretty sure they have a SW offering too where you can get some money off. Not sure if they have a special offering for us ML folks.

                            I think that you are thinking of Unitrends. Veeam Free is always free.

                              Their normal backup product has a limited use free version called Veeam Free. It can only talk to Hyper-V and ESXi licensed (non-free). It's a totally different type of product and is the platform that people pay big money for. It is agentless.

                                @scottalanmiller I might be.

                                I thought it was Veeam free 1TB though.

                                Not without limitations.

                                    That's definitely Unitrends that's 1 TB and free and no limitations.

                                        I just bought Unitrends for our Xenserver environment about 2 months ago. I have well over 95%(over 99% at the moment) backup success rate with 40 or so vm, using a combo of vm backups, agent backups(required it seems for some vm servers with sql dbs) and sql/exchange db backups. I may be able to help you with your problems. There are some things it wont do in Xenserver yet, like instant recovery for example, but it is working well for me so far.

                                            @scottalanmiller Fixing lots of things. Trying to fix other things, failing. Im really loving xenserver so far for the almost 4 months ive been using it. Just got a raise, so im feeling good about the work ive done here, so ill be around more often now.
