The virtual machine backup is set up as a Hyper-V Server Backup task, then the VM is selected and a target folder is specified. The backup task is saved and we go through a few basic configuration steps. Note that the user guide also contains illustrated step-by-step instructions for Hyper-V backups and all other features of BackupChain.
