Force

: To force a new export. This option could be helpful when virtual standby is paused and

then resumed, which means the export job will restart only after a new transfer. If you do not

want to wait for the new transfer, you could force an export.

To remove an export from the system, click

Remove

. When you remove an export, it is permanently

removed from the system and you will not be able to re-start it.

To view details about the active exports currently in queue to be completed, click

Show Export

Queue

The following table is displayed:

Description

Machine Name

The name of the source machine.

Destination

The Virtual Standby is successfully configured, is active, and not paused. The
next Virtual Standby export will be performed after the next snapshot.

Export Type

The virtual standby is paused and is still saved by the Core. However, after a
new transfer, the export job will not start automatically and there will be no
new Virtual Standby exports for this agent.

Schedule Type

The type of export as either One-time or Continuous.

Status

The progress of the export, displayed as a percentage in a progress bar.

Exporting backup information from your Windows machine to a virtual

machine

You can export data from your Windows machines to a virtual machine (VMware, ESXi, and Hyper-V) by

exporting all of the backup information from a recovery point as well as the parameters defined for the

protection schedule for your machine.

NOTE: Only the Dell DL1000, 3 TB with 2 VMs configuration supports the one-time export and

continuous export (virtual standby) capabilities.

To export Windows backup information to a virtual machine:

In the Core Console, click the

Protected Machines

tab.

In the list of protected machines, select the machine or cluster with the recovery point for which you

want to export.

In the

Actions

drop-down menu for that machine, click

Export

, and then select the type of export

you want to perform. You can choose from the following options:
• One-time
• Virtual Standby

The

Export Wizard

dialog box appears.

Exporting Windows data using ESXi export

In AppAssure, you can choose to export data using ESXi Export by performing a one-time or continuous
export.
