Hello,
I tried to use the ghettoVCB script to backup a VM containing a permanent disk (which is excluded from snapshots). Apparently ghettoVCB cannot backup this VM, since it is relying on snapshots. I have searched the FAQ and this user group, but have not yet found any advice.
Is it possible set the permanent disk to a non-permament disk prior to the backup? I could imagine this is only a configuration setting. After successfull backup, I would like to mark it again as a permanent disk.
I know from the FAQ that you are regarding snapshots as a temporary solution and should not be used for production use. However I am using snapshots for a development server and I am using snapshots to be able to evaluate different configurations quickly. Feel free to explain why this is not a good practice.
Thank you in advance for your time!
Regards
Toni
