- SCP & HCI Integration:
Cloud host operation and maintenance optimizations and updates, including:
• Added new debugging options: support for filtering page files during backup, disabling Pause-Loop Exiting, and disabling kvmclock.
• Support for creating cloud hosts using public images (including ISO and built-in images) from all resource pools.
• Added support for selecting Quick Full Derivation, and corrected the original Quick Derivation to Chained Derivation.
• Single cloud host migration now supports setting the running location to Auto Selection; cross-cluster migration supports automatic MAC address assignment; the task list supports configuring migration disk I/O rate.
• Batch migration supports batch configuration of disk I/O rate, compressed transmission, CPU throttling, and grouping.
• Migration from VMware to HCI now supports CBT (Changed Block Tracking) migration.
• Clone cloud host options enhanced (same configuration options as editing a cloud host) and supports cloning from snapshots.
• Exported cloud host list now includes UUID.
• Supports batch snapshot creation within the same resource pool.
- License Changes:
Starting from SCP 6.11.2, the aSV, aNET, and aSEC licenses are adjusted to adopt CPU core-based tiered pricing, divided into three tiers:
• Pro Edition: applicable to all specifications of physical CPUs.
• Plus Edition: applicable to CPUs with less than 64 cores (exclusive).
• Base Edition: applicable to CPUs with up to 32 cores (inclusive).
- NUB Optimization:
Optimizations to NetBackup (NBU) backup capabilities, including:
• Removal of backup data retention time limits (customizable retention period).
• Support for two backup policies per cloud host.
• Support for managing up to 100 NBU instances.
• Support for cross-site replication and multi-platform administrator management during recovery.
• Optimized backup time point and backup frequency configuration.
• Support for manual incremental/full backups.
• Added advanced options such as encrypted transmission and MAC address retention.
• Display of NBU Job ID linked with backup details.
• Improved full backup frequency for higher efficiency.
