Abstract
Providing backup of virtual machines can be performed by a backup server. The backup server can maintain log-in credentials for a central management server and a virtual machine host. If communication is lost between the backup server and the central management server, the backup server can initialize a connection directly to the host and back up a target virtual machine.
