Hi,

Microsoft just released Update Rollup 11 for DPM and today is the day many of us has been waiting for: Support for backup and restore of VMware virtual machines at vCenter/ESXi-level!

Here is some other highlights of VMware VM backup with DPM:

• Agentless backup
• Backup at vCenter or ESXi level
• Backup VMware VM folders
• Ability to do ILR
• Protect large data center using DPM Scale Out
•  Backup to Disk/Cloud

Want to start testing the new features right away?

1. Go the Microsoft Update Catalog and download UR11 (Remeber: No restart needed for production-agents if you are UR6 or above!) :
