Case Scenario:
- A Virtual Machine (VM) currently running on EXSi fails (e.g. system hacked, internal corruption, use your imagination...)
- A perfect backup of said VM is standing by in an external USB drive, ready to replace the fallen one.
Fact:
- Copying this VM (easily 8-10 GB) from a client PC would take ages, even if the client is in the LAN.
Question:
Is there a way to plug this USB drive to one of the USB ports in the host and transfer those files to the datastore directly over USB?
