IntelliSnap backup should work with VM spread across multiple datasores.

Hi @asancheti,

Thank you for the response. I still don’t quite get it. So, if I have a VM uses both NetApp-datastore-1 and NetApp-datastore-2. When I use the intelliSnap on both of these 2 Datastores, It would capture the snapshot of this VM 2 times? 

Hello @TD89 ,

With intellisnap ,

 it will first create the snapshot on the VM and then create the hardware snapshot for both the datastore.

There will be only one snapshot on the VM.

Hi @asancheti 

Thank you for the reply.

I have another silly question, and I hope you don’t mind.

For example, the C and D drive of that VM use the Netapp-Datastore#1, and the E drive uses Netapp-Datastore#2. As I enable intelliSnap backup on both Netapp-Datastore#1 and Netapp-Datastore#2, when the backups kick in, the Netapp-Datastore#1 will create the snapshot for the VM first, then it will create snapshot for the hardware which are the drives. And for the Netapp-Datastore#2 it will only create a snapshot of a E Drive right?
