Backup some VMs hot,followed by the other VMs cold possible?
Would it be possible to back up some VMs warm (eg backup-how=hot), and the rest cold within the same cron job?
The reason is my Napp IT vm provides the NFS datastore and I do not wish to shut it down for a cold backup.
thanks

Use two or more independent backup jobs and group your VMs into those groups according to your needs

For the free version, is it possible to start the next backup right after the previous one is done?

Not with the free version.
You can nevertheless program those backups at different times.
