What Are You Doing Right Now

Nothing can backup ESXi for free via API. This restrictions is 100% locked by VMWare.
If you open SSH you can use scripts to do so under the hood that make a snapshot and SCP it off.
Unitrends markets that they can backup ESXi Free because they have the agent. That is not a VM backup and should not be considered one. It is a Server OS backup.

I've asked about that several times and been told that Unitrends Free doesn't allow for agents to do this. Which is where the confusion has come from. Because obviously only an agent could possibly do it since the API doesn't exist. But when I ask if we can install agents, I'm told no.
(We used paid Unitrends and have never used ESXi Free, so we never run into it internally.)

That was my point - skip the APIs and just use an agent inside the OS, just like as if it was bare metal.

Not working yet. But screensharing was easier and better than Skype. No issues like Skype had.
It's basically an open source LMI Join.me service.

I was super excited because I thought you meant a bucket of parts and empty cases.... Then I realized you work remotely.

The systems side of it is much more exciting to me then the server monkey/hardware side.

Same here. I have near zero interest in the physical side. I only touch physical servers every few years, so it is always a little excited just because of the change of pace. But it is RARE.

I like new toys as much as the next person. But standing up systems for people to use and ensure they are working is very rewarding.

I was readying that AS you changed it... dang it. Missed it by that ( [ ] ) much.
Honestly,.. working with @MattSpeller would be enough to question a persons sanity period.

trying to keep it classy, but it's Friday and my brain filter is tired.

You have a brain filter? Dang... I need that upgrade. I think my "Shut Up" filter needs an upgrade too.
