Application-aware image processing/guest processing on AHV

Post by ynojiri@kel.co.jp »

Hello all,

The following website provides a table explaining the key features of application-aware image processing and guest processing.

・VMware tools quiescence
・Hyper-V quiescence
・application-aware image processing

https://bp.veeam.com/vbr/4_Operations/O ... ssing.html

Please indicate how the key features in this table would be affected if Nutanix Guest Tools quiescence were added.

My understanding is as follows

Support for consistent backup on Windows guest: Yes
Sync driver for Linux guest: No
Support for application-aware backup:Limited
Pre-VSS preparation for specific applications (e.g. Oracle): No
Support for application log truncation (Microsoft SQL Server and Exchange Server) : No
Support for scripts: Yes (placed on VM guest)
Error reporting: Within VM guest OS

Regards,
Yasuhiro
