No worries. Thanks for the information!

Can you report this to support to see if they can resolve this?

No issues so far with Windows Agent Version 8.1.4.122

Can you create a support ticket? Support is very helpful.

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

Do you know if it is required to license the replication server? This server might go years without doing more than to receive the replication data.

Peter and Steve,

Thank you both for your very helpful responses. I must have overlooked your replies. We will look further into these.

Peter, using alternating virtual disks sounds like an interesting plan.

Steve, HYPERV replication looks very interesting too. I presume that this could run in parallel with the daily MSP360 image backup, is that correct?

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Steve. This is very helpful information. I hope that the GFS settings issues is easily resolvable.

I found this article regarding a true full backup:
Force a Full Backup Out of Schedule
https://kb.msp360.com/managed-backup-service/troubleshooting/Forcing-a-full-backup-out-of-schedule

It looks like it can be triggered manually. Will an existing backup plan ever complete a true full backup if the administrator does not trigger this manually?

I don't know either but would like to know how to have some turned On and some turned Off.

Can anyone tell me if this was fixed in 8.0.3.36 ? Is <a href="http://8.0.3.36" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">8.0.3.36</a> stable?

We have not noticed this but we are not using Hyper-V hosts running VM edition of the backup software.

I don't remember seeing this. When do you get this message? Is it related to something you are doing regarding MSP360?

Bump

Thanks!

Spinning up a VM directly from the backup would be very nice feature!

Thanks Alexander Negrash.

Can you or can anyone else that uses this share any best practices that I should be aware of? Are there limitations?

Sorry for the delay in responding. Thanks. This information is very helpful.

These both seem like good features to consider adding to MSP360.
