    Hello

    I need some good tips for witch backup solution to use with ESXi.
    This is a private server, so price is important.

    What do you use?

    Do you mean backup of esxi datastore or backup of hosts?

    I know there is some paid solutions and there is always vmcenter but all those cost a dime.

    Than again there is free scripts like this one but i haven't tried it:

    Please post info if you come up with something beacuse i'm too looking for backup solutions of vm's. :)

    Try VMXploer

    Try VM Explorer free version is with no sheduler, runs on win machine can backup to remote share. Simple but not with sheduler in free version.
