Hello,

We use Hyper-V Under Windows 2012 R2. For example, a virtual machine has 2 VHDX. It is possible to export or backup specific VHDX ?

Thanks.

Hello Benoît,

Hyper-V support for exporting VM by using Hyper-V manager. The exported files include Snapshots, virtual hard disks and virtual machine configurations.

You can follow the instruction in the article below for exporting VM.

/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/deploy/Export-and-import-virtual-machines

In addition, if you only want to backup specific VHDX, you can find the storage location for the VHDX file from the properties of VM, and just copy it to another location.
