Current setup is one outdated Server running 2012R2 with (4) Hyper-v servers (setup by previous admin) hosting their business applications (Medisoft/Ez-notes/Quickbooks/? can't remember the 4th one)! They are currently manually backing up their data files (against my instructions). I have very little experience with Hyper-v but I'm wondering if there isn't a better way to set this up. I just don't feel comfortable having everything on (1) server in case of hardware failure, virus infection, ransomware, etc.
I am thinking of standing up another server, creating it identical to existing so it can be a "rollover" server in case of hardware failure. I'd like to send copies of the VM's to the new one several times throughout the day and then send them to a 3rd physical server to be backed up to a physical medium that they can take...
