How to Backup an ESXi Server with GhettoVCB

Written by SPK Blog Post
Published on September 12, 2011

VMWare is wonderful for getting full utilization of scarce resource.  However, if you’re on a limited budget, affording ESX clustered hosts for all needs is overkill.  Sometimes a free ESXi server is enough.
