7.5.7 Additional Settings

1) Deduplication

This option defines whether to enable or disable the deduplication for the archive created by the

backup task. The default setting for Deduplication is: Enabled.

Deduplication is performed on the archive level. This means that only the data which is saved to this

archive will be deduplicated. In other words, if there are 2 archives saved into the same location with

deduplication enabled, the duplicated data which may be present in both of these archives will not

be deduplicated.

2) CBT backup

This option defines whether to utilize the Changed Block Tracking feature of VMWare for the virtual

machines supporting it. The default setting for CBT backup is: Enabled.

CBT backup keeps track of all the changed blocks inside the virtual machine. This significantly reduces

the time for creating backups. The time is reduced because Acronis vmProtect 7 does not need to

check which blocks have changed since the last backup. It gets this information from the VMWare

API.

3) Use FTP in active mode

It is possible to use FTP active mode for FTP authentication and data transfer. The default setting for

Use FTP in active mode is: Disabled.

Enable this option if your FTP server supports active mode and you want this mode to be used for file

transfers.

After you finished with all the settings, click OK to close the pop-up and apply them for the current

backup task only.

7.5.8 Exchange-Aware Backup Settings

Prior to running Exchange Server Backup Extraction you have to configure your backups to become

“Exchange-aware”. From the VMs list on the left select the specific VM(s) running MS Exchange

Server, provide its Domain Administrator Credentials. You can add several VMs running Exchange.

Optionally you can choose to Automatically truncate the Exchange Server transaction logs after

backup. Selecting this feature allows to actually back up the Exchange Server Database including all

the database updates that occurred during the backup time. The feature is disabled by default.
