Unitrends Enterprise Backup and XenServer 7
-
Now that is seriously bizarre. @KatieUnitrends ?
-
Now i'm really confused install XenServer onto my Dell server, deployed the Eval of UEB to it and went to add the XenServer and this happens:-
Just booting my "test" machine to see what the difference is and why I could add itself to UEB?? -

-
So this is what I've found out so far in summary:-
Unitrends Free only supports - VMware and Hyper-V
Unitrends UEB deployed to ESXi server supports - VMware and Hyper-V
Unitrends UEB deployed to XenServer supports - XenServer and Hyper-VMight see what Hyper-V UEB supports monday
-
Just remembered that Hyper-V (core) doesn't like unitrends so installing Server 2012 and will enable Hyper-V role then install unitrends see what happens.
-
So deployed to Hyper-V

Unitrends UEB deployed to Hyper-V supports - VMWare and Hyper-V -
This is so weird. Why change the code base?

FTFY.
This was my experience as well when trying to test Unitrends Free.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Can't restore a VM Backup that was done on ESXi onto Hyper-V! only another ESXi.

Wouldn't you have to perform an export from ESXi to a compatible file format?
I thought the backups made in ESXi were the proprietary format.

Was just hoping for restoring to another Hypervisor to give me more options.

Do you need the entire backup of the machine? You can mount the image of the backup and restore any files anywhere you want.
