Acronis TI problem with VMware ESX and Vreplicator

Hope someone can help me out.

We have some servers running in vmware esx.

Every server has a copy of TI Server running on it, making

a backup of this server every night.

Every night too, vizioncore vreplicator will replicate the virtual server

to another SAN, so that we have a identical LAN running on a different

location in case that........ VReplictor will do this incrementally.

However, since acronis TI will change every delta of the virtual server,

VReplicator will see every night that the whole virtual server changed,

and will try to replicate all servers totally. This will take much more

time than an incremental replication, and due to the technic used

there is a big risk that it will fill up the SAN disks.

Is there a way to change the aronis backup technic so it will not change

all delta's? So that vreplicator on ESX will not have the problems they

have right now. This will help us out enormously !!!

Hello,

I would contact Acronis for help on this. It is not something that you can change within the virtualization layer.
