Data Protector Express supports backup and restore of virtual environments and includes features such as snapshot integration, cloud and encryption support. It offers socket based licensing to provide predictable licensing capability with no monitoring required for virtualized workloads.

Agent or agentless VM consistent backup is available based on your requirements. Agentless backup uses VMware or Microsoft Hyper-V APIs to back up multiple VMs and their VM disks in parallel and stream them to a backup device.

Automated disaster recovery

Bare metal recovery for Windows and Linux clients functionality is enables with Enhanced Automated Disaster Recovery (EADR) which allows clients and cell managers to collect relevant environment information automatically at backup time and to package the OS data and configuration files in a single large DR image.

Bare metal recovery for UNIX clients is supported with the Disk Delivery Disaster Recovery (DDDR) feature which allows Data Protector to recover faulty disk sub-system using an auxiliary disk if the client system is not available or creating a new one if the client system is online.
