What if any command line parameters/Powershell script could I use with wbadmin to backup only select VHD's on a Core Server. &nbsp;For example, let's say I have 3 running VM's - VM1, VM2 and VM3 - on a 2008 R2 Core Server and I want to run a wbadmin command line that will back up the Core server including VM1 and VM3 but &nbsp;exclude &nbsp;VM2 from being backed up

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
