NetBackup™ Release Notes

Cloud parallel stream job hierarchy for Cloud VM backups

With this release of NetBackup 11.1, a new parallel stream job hierarchy has been introduced to improve the efficiency and reliability of Cloud VM backups. When parallel read is enabled, each VM disk is backed up through its own stream, and a consolidated anchor stream manages the final synthesis of all disk data. This enhancement delivers faster backup performance, better job visibility, and more efficient handling of retries for multi-disk Cloud VMs.

With NetBackup 11.1, multi-stream Cloud VM protection is enabled by default. If the NetBackup primary server is upgraded and Cloud VM protection was previously configured, the Media Servers and NetBackup Snapshot Manager must also be upgraded to ensure compatibility.

For more information, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Cloud Install and Upgrade Guide.
