What is VCB file?
A VCB file is a virtual machine configuration archive image. It can be used to create a backup of the state of a virtual machine to either an external hard drive or another VMware host. The VCB file contains all the settings and configurations of the virtual machine as well as its current snapshot and state. When restoring this type of backup, it is important that the same VM version is restored but with any new changes that have been made since the last backup.
