I would like to create some independent persistent disks to prevent them from being affected by snapshots, and save space on the array.
What are the possible drawbacks / caveats I need to be aware of when doing this, especially if the VM is being backed up by Veeam, which takes snapshots of the whole VM before backing up? Will my backup software work properly if only one of the disks is independent persistent and the other disks on the vm are normal and are affected by snapshots?
