The VCB framework is using a new VMware Consolidated Backup API. The heart of the system is a Virtual appliance (OVF file which you first need to deploy inside your vCenter…). The good part is that you do not need any agent on the VM to be able to back up your VM. In any case the VM gonna be backed up does not matter which guest OS is running in your VM. Thus using VMware Tools greatly enhances the backup/restore process, because of the VSS capability go quiesce the Windows guest OS and the applications running there.
Remember if you wish to test VDR the minimum size of your Deduplication store is 10 Gigs. You can use NAS, SAN or CIFS (Samba) as a destination.
