Dell EMC Avamar for Windows Servers 19.7 User Guide

VHD file backups

You can use the Avamar Client for Windows to back up and restore Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) files on a Windows server. You also can exclude attached VHDs when you back up a volume on a Windows server.

The Avamar Client for Windows does not support the backup of a VHD configured for native boot.

NOTE A VHD does not automatically attach when you restart, and is not available after restart until you reattach the VHD. When you reattach the VHD, the previous drive letter mappings reset automatically, unless other drives are using the drive letters. Because Windows does not automatically reattach VHDs, you must manually check the VHDs on the system, and use consistent drive letter mappings in all subsequent attach and detach operations for backup data consistency.
