VMware announced a new version of VDR today that has a lot of improvements and new functionality. In a nutshell, the new release supports:
- a file level restore client for Linux virtual machines
- ability to run up to 10 VDR appliances per vCenter Server instance
- ability to fast switch between the deployed appliances via the vSphere Client plug-in
- Better deduplication performance
They also addressed a lot of issues reported by customers since the initial release.
In support of this new release, we have placed a new release of CloudArray on our download site. If you haven’t evaluated VDR yet, now is a good time. Combined with CloudArray, you can quickly and easily store your VMware restore files on Cloud Storage, wither Public or Private with complete security.
This can extend your BC/DR capabilities to offsite storage without the expense of provisioning a second site or handling and managing tape.
Details of VDR 1.2 can be found at http://blogs.vmware.com/uptime/2010/06/new-vdr-release-out-today.html.
