Veritas Netbackup 7.7.3

Доп. информация

1. More cloud storage choices—Whether you are exploring public cloud storage services for offsite protection or as an alternative
to tape, NetBackup 7.7 introduces a new cloud connector designed around Amazon Simple Storage ServiceTM (Amazon S3) that will
enable connections to Amazon Web ServicesTM (AWS) as well as potentially any Amazon S3-compatible cloud storage service. For
the latest list of cloud storage providers certified for use with NetBackup, please see the latest NetBackup Hardware Compatibility
List (HCL).
2. Move more data to and from the cloud faster—The new Amazon S3-compatible cloud connector introduced in NetBackup
7.7 is optimized for performance, taking advantage of multistreaming and other techniques to more fully exploit available network
bandwidth. While performance results will vary for different environments, internal NetBackup 7.7 testing has shown performance
improvements of up to 30 times faster backups and restores when compared to previous NetBackup releases.
3. Backup and recover VMware® vSphere® Virtual VolumesTM (VVOLs)—Introduced in VMware vSphere 6, VVOLs change
the storage management paradigm from LUNs to VMs, enabling better performance and greater control at the hypervisor level.
NetBackup 7.7 is built to recognize, protect, and recover VMware virtual machines stored on VVOLs, and NetBackup Intelligent
Policies have been enhanced to easily automate these operations.
4. Deliver self-service for Microsoft® Hyper-V® and vSphere administrators—For many VM administrators, having visibility and
control of backup and recovery is a necessity. With NetBackup 7.7, Hyper-V and vSphere admins can access an interface add-in or
plug-in within Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) and VMware vSphere Web Client that displays backup
status and provides self-service recovery facilities, including access to NetBackup Instant Recovery allowing VMware VMs to boot
directly from backup disk storage.
5. Simplify and automate Hyper-V and Microsoft SQL Server® protection—With IT environments becoming even more dynamic
and elastic, greater automation is needed to help administrators keep up with all the changes. NetBackup 7.7 introduces Intelligent
Policies for Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs) and Microsoft SQL Server databases, enabling NetBackup to automatically
discover and protect new VMs and database instances and more effectively adapt to changing conditions.
6. Protect NetApp cDOT environments—For enterprises using scale-out NAS architectures based on NetApp Clustered Data
ONTAP® (cDOT), new enhancements have been added in NetBackup 7.7 to support NDMP backups of data on these systems. In
addition, in version 7.7 NetBackup Replication Director is able to orchestrate, index, and manage hardware snapshots within cDOT
environments (requires the NetApp Plug-in 2.0 for Symantec NetBackup, available from NetApp).
7. Keep up with the latest platforms and workloads—If you’re a fast-moving organization that quickly upgrades to the latest
versions of platform technology and infrastructure, keeping up with the latest version of NetBackup is a must. We prioritize support
for new operating systems, applications, databases, and other workloads in our latest major software release.
