Abstract
A virtual machine may use a first one or more volumes in which one or more virtual disk image files are stored. The virtual machine may also use data stored in a second one or more volumes, where the virtual machine is configured to bypass a hypervisor to access the second one or more volumes. A time consistent backup of the virtual machine, including both the virtual disk image files of the first one or more volumes and the data of the second one or more volumes, may be created.
