On-line backup using HyperBack

When performing an online backup of a VM with HyperBack, take a snapshot on the hypervisor by enabling the specified options.

ESXi

– Static guest file system

Creating snapshot

Hyper-V 2012 R2 or earlier

– Standard check point

Hyper-V 2016 or later

– Operational check point

For VMs on ESXi or Hyper-V 2016 and later, online backup ensures data consistency in VSS-savvy databases. However, for VMs on Hyper-V 2012 R2 or earlier, data consistency is not guaranteed. If a VSS-savvy database is on a VM with Hyper-V 2012 R2 or earlier, use HyperBack's [Advanced Setting] - [Scripting] to run a script before taking snapshots. This pauses the database before capturing a snapshot.
