Traditional VM recovery methods can be time consuming and frustrating. Imagine having to recover all the relevant VM data files to the VM host machine before a VM can be started up. This process could take hours to complete due to the large sizes of modern VMs, which unfortunately means that any applications, databases, or services hosted by the VM will be offline to customers and end users.
But what if there was a better way? Enter Live VM Migration, a recovery option for VMware vCenter/ESXi and Hyper-V standalone/cluster guest VM backups. It is used together with VM Run Direct to ensure a seamless recovery process with minimal service downtime. With VM Run Direct, you can start up and run a virtual machine directly from the backup file located on the backup storage destination. Once the VM is up and running, its network connections, associated services, databases, and applications are accessible to customers and end users.
Using Live VM Migration, Ahsay can manage the physical recovery of the entire VM from the backup storage destination directly to the datastore on the VM host machine while at the same time servicing customers and end users. This means that you can get back to business as usual without any unnecessary delays or disruptions.
