Whwn I was using VMWare Data Recovery, I used a NAS datastore to store my backups while still having the backup appliance running on my main datastore that contains all my VMs. Is it possible to do this with VDP? I see that the appliance already comes with the backup virtual disks already created. I thought about removing them from the VM, moving them to a different datastore and then re-adding them to the VM. The 2 TB VDP appiance has about 12 virtual disks (not counting the OS disk). It would be tedious to move each of the backup virtual disks to an alternative datastore. Is there a better procddure for doing this? Should I even do it at all? Am I stepping outside the bounds of how this appliance was meant to work?
I would appreciate some advice in this manner.
