About STORServer VMB
STORServer® Virtual Machine Backup (VMB) lets you back up and archive VMware virtual machines to your IBM Spectrum® Protect server on a STORServer Appliance or in an existing IBM Spectrum Protect environment. STORServer VMB can be installed and configured quickly, takes minutes a day to manage, and is an ideal solution for businesses backing up virtual environments. STORServer VMB supports the use of two different backup technologies, one developed by STORServer (VMB Native, which is used by default) and the other, VMB Spectrum, which is based on IBM Spectrum Protect for Virtual Environments, Data Protection for VMware. You may configure STORServer VMB to use the backup technology that best meets your backup needs. Virtual machine (VM) data is moved directly to and from VMs and IBM Spectrum Protect storage pools without ESX/ESXi server involvement. Changed block tracking (CBT) minimizes the amount of data transferred.
