[Discuss] VSphere 5.5.0 U1 and backups

[Scott Ehrlich]

What backup method do people use for VSphere 5.5.0 U1 for preserving
VMs over the network?

Configuration is currently about 7 TB of RAID space with a redundant hot spare.

Goal is to preserve VMs to a remote location (backup system not
directly attached), thus the need for a network-based solution.

5.5.0 U1 is also new, so what backup products have been brought up to
standards with it?

Intent is for a full backup then increments.

Thanks.
