I would like to be able to capture the state of four VM's, store them and later restore them if I need to. I know checkpoints could be used but like always the checkpoints get bigger with time. I'm thinking creating templates from them and putting them in the library is the way to go, but am open to any other ideas that people might have.
It is four VM's, one has a Dynamics AX AOS on it, the other is a SharePoint front end, the other a SQL database sever and the last is a SQL SSRS server.
