Changing the settings for a Hyper-V protected virtual machine

This procedure applies to Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs) that are protected using Rapid Recovery Rapid Snap for Virtual (agentless protection).

A Hyper-V VM that is being protected by Rapid Snap for Virtual (agentless protection) is indicated in the left navigation area by the host icon .

The settings for a Hyper-V agentless VM the same as a typical protected machine with the exception of the Hyper-V section at the bottom of the Settings page. The following task provides instructions for only the Hyper-V section settings. For all other protected machine settings, see Viewing and modifying protected machine settings.

  1. On the Rapid Recovery Core Console, in the left navigation area under Protected Machines, click the Hyper-V VM whose settings you want to change.
    The Summary page for the VM opens.
  2. On the menu bar for the host, click Settings.
    The Settings page opens.
  3. In the list on the left side, click Hyper-V.

    The setting you selected becomes editable, as a text field or a drop-down menu.

  4. Under Hyper-V, click Snapshot configuration.

    The setting you selected becomes editable a drop-down menu.

  5. From the drop-down menu, select one of the options described in the following table.
    Table 70: Hyper-V settings information
    Text Box Description
    Try to create VSS snapshot during transfer first, if it fails, create a checkpoint If the VSS snapshot succeeds, the recovery point will be in an application-consistent state. If the VSS snapshot fails and a checkpoint is created, the recovery point will be in a crash-consistent state.
    Do not create VSS snapshot during transfer Generates a recovery point in a crash-consistent state.
    Use only VSS snapshots during transfers. If VSS snapshot creation fails, the entire transfer will fail Generates only application-consistent recovery points. If the VSS snapshot fails, no recovery point is generated.

Changing the vSphere settings for a VMware protected virtual machine

This procedure applies to VMware ESXi or Workstation virtual machines (VMs) that are protected using Rapid Recovery Rapid Snap for Virtual (agentless protection).
The settings for a VMware VM that is protected agentlessly include the same settings that are used for a typical protected machine, with one exception. The vSphere section of the Settings page includes settings that apply only to agentlessly protected VMware VMs. The following task provides instructions for only the vSphere section of the Settings page. For all other protected machine settings, see Viewing and modifying protected machine settings.
  1. On the Rapid Recovery Core Console, under Protected Machines in the left navigation area, click the display name of the Hyper-V host you want to change.
    The Summary page for the host opens.
  2. On the menu bar for the host, click Settings.
    The Settings page opens.
  3. In the list on the left side, click vSphere.

    The setting you selected becomes editable, as a text field or a drop-down menu.

  4. Under vSphere, click the setting that you want to change.

    The setting you selected becomes editable, as a text field or a drop-down menu.

  5. Enter the configuration information as described in the following table.
    Table 71: vSphere settings information
    Text Box Description
    Allow Rapid Recovery to delete user created in VMware The default setting is No.
    Allow transfer for volumes with invalid used capacity The default setting is Yes.
    Allow quiesced snapshots The default setting is Yes.

Understanding Active Block Mapping

Active Block Mapping (ABM) is a patent-pending technology that filters out inactive blocks of data from managed images, thereby letting Rapid Recovery protect only the active blocks, which optimizes function and performance. This feature is only available for agentless (Rapid Snap for Virtual) protection of ESXi or vCenter virtual machines (VMs) and Hyper-V servers and clusters.

ABM delivers a query to the file system header of a volume. The query returns a list of active blocks within the image. For this reason, ABM only works with NTFS file systems. When protecting ESXi and vCenter VMs, ABM can be combined with Changed Block Tracking (CBT), to read only active and changed blocks when taking incremental or differential snapshots.

When configuring agentless protection of a VM with the Protect Multiple Machines wizard, you have the option to enable ABM. If you opt to automatically protect new VMs added to the specified host, then the ABM rule also applies to any new VMs subsequently added to protection on the host.

You can change your ABM choice at any time in the Settings page for the host or VM. For more information, see Changing ABM settings.

Changing ABM settings

To change the Active Block Mapping (ABM) settings for a supported hypervisor host or virtual machine (VM), complete the following steps.

NOTE: For more information, see Understanding Active Block Mapping.

  1. From the Core Console, in the left navigation area, click the host or VM for which you want to change the ABM settings.
  2. From the Summary page of the machine, click Settings.
  3. From the list of machine settings on the left side of the Settings page, click ABM Settings.
  4. Do one of the following:
    1. If changing ABM settings for an agentlessly protected ESXi or Hyper-V virtual machine, proceed to step 5.
    2. If changing ABM settings for a supported hypervisor host, skip to step 6.
  5. If you are on the Settings page of a VM, select whether to use the settings from the host (the default option) or to use the settings for this machine.
    • If you want this VM to use the same ABM settings as the host, select Use the settings of the Hyper-V host. If you made any changes, click Apply. This procedure is complete.
    • If you want this VM to use different ABM settings than the host, select Use the settings of this protected machine, click Apply, and then continue to the next step.
  6. Review the ABM settings and change them if desired. For each of the following options, click the current setting, select (or clear) the selection, and then click [Apply changes] to accept the change or click [Cancel] to cancel.

    Option Description
    Enable Active Block Mapping Lets you enable or disable the ABM feature.

    Enable swap file blocks exclusion

    Excludes the content of system files, such as pagefile.sys, hyberfill.sys, and swapfile.sys, from the backup.

    Exclude subdirectories

    Lets you exclude specific files by specifying '<file name>' or '<folder>\<subfolder>\<file name>'.

    Only the files will be excluded. The folders or subfolders that contained excluded files are included in the mount point, with no contents.

    NOTE: This option may affect the performance of the "determining data" phase of transfers.

    + Add

    If you opted to exclude subdirectories, click Add and enter the location in the Path table for each item you want to exclude.
