Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM) 2007 is designed to provide disk-to-disk-to-tape protection for infrastructures that depend on Microsoft Virtualization technology.
DPM is capable of protecting virtual machines without hibernation downtime. Using shadow copy-based block-level protection of your virtual disks, DPM delivers fast backup and very efficient retention that does not consume inordinate disk space.
DPM’s agent model supports protecting all virtual machines within a single host with only one agent on the host platform, or agents within each virtual instance, for a range of protection and recovery options.
And, unlike other backup technologies from alternative virtualization vendors, DPM also protects physical servers running Windows Server, SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange, or SharePoint products and technologies.
Are you getting ready for Windows Server 2008 with Hyper-V? So are we. Look forward to DPM service pack 1 for native protection of Microsoft’s new virtualization hypervisor from Microsoft’s backup solution, DPM 2007.
