   x360Recover Agent Release Information
    Version:     12.5.1
    Release Date(s):      Staged rollout through January 2024


 


Release overview  

x360Recover 12.5.1 is a feature release. The focus of this release is to improve the user experience by delivering requested feature enhancements and eliminating bugs.


Summary of new features

  • Retention Policy Manager is available, allowing you to create one or more retention policy configurations that can be set as a default or applied to protected systems individually.
  • ZFS ZSTD compression is now supported1
  • LZ4 compression is now deprecated
  • The Smart Recovery option is selected by default in the UI
  • Fully-integrated shared P2V (Physical-to-Virtual) library is included with Virtual Office
  • Paused and missed backup jobs are now reported to Recover Manager


1 Because ZSTD-3 compression offers 8-12% better compression than LZ4, the LZ4 compression method has been deprecated with this release. Existing storage pools will be reconfigured to use ZSTD-3 on all future snapshots, resulting in better storage utilization, reduced replication bandwidth, and less cloud storage consumption over time. Existing storage pools using GZip-4 compression are not affected.
