Hyper-V Data Protection 7
NetBackup for Hyper-V Overview Simple to configure install NetBackup and GO! No additional software or hardware required Up to 90% less back-end storage (disk, tape, VTL, etc.). NetBackup offers media storage optimization via deduplication Flexible backup and recovery Restore single file from any incremental or full backup Shorten virtual machine backup windows as much as 95% Improved RTOS and RPOs Simple and faster, disaster recovery Restore entire virtual machine with a few mouse clicks Direct single file restore no need to recreate VM or restage File level incremental backups Enabled via V-Ray Granular Recovery Technology Built-in media server deduplication 8
V-Ray Granular Recovery Technology Symantec V-Ray Dedup Cloud Backup VM once restore anything Single file or entire VM restore quick, simple DR No client in VM: Granular File Restore built into backup process Supports any backup destination Everything searchable find any file instantly No need for costly and complicated entire VM restore, mount and repeat process to enable single file restores Disk Tape Appliances 9
