New Features and Enhancements

The following new features and enhancements are available for Arcserve UDP 10.0:

• Assured Security Scan: Enables you to scan backup data in recovery points for any malware or malicious files. It also warns you about the malicious files in recovery points before restoring. For more information, see How to Perform Assured Security Scan.
• Notes:
• The Assured Security scan is supported only for Windows nodes.
• Applicable for Full, Incremental, Verify, and incomplete backup types of all the job types from custom, daily, weekly, and monthly schedule types.
• Virtual Standby to Google Cloud: Converts recovery points to virtual machine format on Google Cloud and prepares a snapshot to easily recover data when needed. This feature also provides the high availability capability and ensures that the virtual machine can take over immediately when the source machine fails. For more information, see How to Create a Virtual Standby to Google Cloud Plan.
• Ad-hoc Virtual Standby: Converts recovery points to virtual machine format and prepares a snapshot to easily recover data when needed. This feature also provides the high availability capability and ensures that the virtual machine can take over immediately when the source machine fails. For more information, see How to Create an Ad-hoc Virtual Standby Machine.
• Import or Mount an Existing Data Store as a Read-Only Data Store: Allows you import or mount an existing data store as a read-only data store for recovery. It does not support the backup, merge, and purge jobs. For more information, see Import a Data Store.
• One-to-Many Replication Support: Arcserve UDP now supports replication from a single source to multiple data store destinations by allowing you to select a source data store from a Backup destination or from a Replication destination to be specified as source in the replication task. Additionally, it allows you to select if the next replication job starts only after the previous one is completed, or if they must start in parallel.
• Note: This feature is applicable only for the Replicate and Replicate to a remotely managed RPS replication tasks.
• Mount SQL Database: Allows mounting of SQL databases to Microsoft SQL Server. For more information, see How to Mount SQL Databases.
• Increase of UNC Path Password Length: Allows you to use passwords having maximum of 120 characters for the RPS datastore destination UNC path.
• TLS 1.3 Support: Enables support for TLS 1.3 to ensure data cannot be intercepted while transmitting over the internet.

Enhancements:

• As part of a security enhancement, we have removed the need for a shared folder to access metadata files (such as index and reference files) stored in the datastore. Instead, metadata operations are now performed over a socket during backup, restore, replication, and other processes. For more information, see How to Disable Data Store Share.
