Using AppAssure 5 Live Recovery instant recovery technology, you can instantly recover or restore data to your physical machines or to virtual machines from stored recovery points of Windows machines. This article serves as a guide for users who want to perform a continuous Hyper-V export.
If you have replication set up between two cores (source and target), you can only export data from the target core after the initial replication is complete.
AppAssure 5 supports both a one-time export or continuous export (to support virtual standby) of Windows backup information to a virtual machine. Exporting your data to a virtual standby machine provides you with a high availability copy of the data. If a protected machine goes down, you can boot up the virtual machine to then perform recovery.
You create a virtual standby by continuously exporting protected data from your Windows machine to a virtual machine (VMware, ESXi, and Hyper-V). When you export to a virtual machine, all of the backup data from a recovery point as well as the parameters defined for the protection schedule for your machine will be exported.
NOTE: The virtual machine to which you are exporting must be a licensed version of ESXi, VMWare Workstation, or Hyper-V and not the trial or free versions.

Text Box | Description |
Hyper-V Host Name | Enter an IP address or host name for the Hyper-V server. It represents the IP address or host name of the remote Hyper-V server. |
Port | Enter a port number for the machine. It represents the port through which the Core communicates with this machine. |
User Name | Enter the user name for the user with administrative privileges for the workstation with the Hyper-V server. It is used to specify the logon credentials for the virtual machine. |
Password | Enter the password for the user account with administrative privileges on the workstation with Hyper-V server. It is used to specify the logon credentials for the virtual machine. |
VM Machine Location | Enter the path for the virtual machine; for example, D:\export. It is used to identify the location of the virtual machine.NOTE: Specify the virtual machine location for both local and remote Hyper-V servers. The path should be a valid local path for the Hyper-V server. Non-existent directories are automatically created. You should not attempt to create them manually. Export to shared folders, for example, \\data\share is not permitted. |
