Greetings,

I'm trying to figure out how to mount a .vhdx (Server 2012 Hyper-V/Failover Cluster) to be able to view or restore a specific file.  I have only found 2 ways to do this so far:

1.  Copy the .vhdx from the snapshot to the physical server and mount it.

2.  Use Disk manager and mount it read-only remotely from the NetApp.  I have found this is only working if the VM was down when the snapshot was taken.

Is there a way to get the .vhdx from the snapshot mounted remotely?  When I have to copy a 300G .vhdx, it is very slow and it limits the systems with enough free space as targets.

I was hoping to use this as opposed to having to apply one of our various traditional backup methods.

Thanks,

Jeff
