Quiesce guest file system – Vmware Snapshot feature

April 7, 2010 admin IT Shop, 1

Had been wondering what this feature means while taking a snapshot of a VM. Few of the articles and explanation I found http://virtualkenneth.com/2010/02/27/using-lefthand-snapshot-techniques-within-a-vmware-environment/ Another good article on avoiding Vmware Backup Pitfalls. (Requires free registration to read) http://searchdatabackup.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid187_gci1338586_mem1,00.html Hope this helps someone.
