Exchange clustering support
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 supports SCC, CCR and DAG cluster configurations. You can
choose to back up database replicas rather than active databases for minimal production impact.
If the Mailbox role is moved to another server due to a switchover or a failover, the software will
track all relocations of the data and safely back it up.
Continuous Data Protection
By using Continuous Data Protection, you can revert Exchange data to almost any point in time. If
the most recent transaction log file survived, you can revert Exchange data to the point of failure.
Backup destinations
The backups can be saved to any type of storage supported by Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5,
except for Acronis Online Backup Storage, Acronis Secure Zone, and removable media.
Enhanced granular recovery
Browse Exchange Server database or mailbox backups and recover single or multiple mailboxes
or just specific e-mails. You can also recover calendar items, notes, tasks and journal entries.
New recovery destinations
Besides being able to recover data to a live Exchange server, you can recover
Exchange databases to regular disk folders.
E-mails and mailboxes to .pst files.
Virtualization
Support for UEFI-based virtual machines (p. 50) (applies to VMware ESXi 5 only)
Back up and recover virtual machines that use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI).
Convert a UEFI-based physical machine (p. 169) to a virtual machine that uses the same boot
firmware.
File-level recovery
Recover individual files and folders to the agent's local file system (in Windows only), a network
share, FTP or SFTP server.
Support for Changed Block Tracking (CBT) (applies to VMware ESX(i) 4.0 and later)
Perform faster incremental and differential backups of ESX(i) virtual machines by using the
Changed Block Tracking (CBT) feature of ESX(i).
Support for VM templates
Back up and recover virtual machine templates the same way as normal ESX(i) virtual machines.
Bare-metal recovery of Microsoft Hyper-V hosts
Back up an entire Hyper-V host along with its virtual machines without interrupting its normal
operation. You can then recover the host to the same or a different hardware.
Enhanced support for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environments
Back up and recover virtual machines running in a RHEV environment. Migrate physical machines
to the RHEV environment (P2V); and migrate a virtual machine from a different virtualization
platform to the RHEV platform (V2V).
