For years we have used Storagecraft Shadowprotect to manage then backup of our Server216 Essentials vm that lives inside an Esxi hypervisor. The backup tool allows us almost instant recovery of the vm through a process they call virtual boot. - So when a drive went bad recently, we fired up our backup server's Virtualbox Virtualboot dodad that in turn started the vm from the last good incremental backup and within 30 minutes were were back in business.

I have spoken to Storagecraft and they say that we can install their product on a Server 2016 Essentials running inside a proxmox environment and achieve the same - and I might add, excellent - results.

Has anyone here had any experience with this product in the Proxmox world, and if so will you share your experieces, tips etc.

Thanks
 
Hi,

I have no experience with Storagecraft ShadowProtect, but from the point of the backup client, there is no different.
It is a Computer/Server and it doesn't matter if it is virtual or physical.
