Hi,
I am about to implement P2V migrations of my big file and Exchange server and I was wondering What criteria do you use in order to determine whether I should make the disk independent or not. Is there anywhere a best practices that is dealing with this subject?
My concerns:
1) Keep the disk dependent - Since my partitions (especially Exchange) are rather large (over 1 TB) snapshots creations and deletions become cumbersome and can also cause loss of space and/or disk consolidations which might take my system offline.
2) Create independent disk - Backup is not as simple and quick to recover as dependent drives.
Thank you for your time.
