Using Hardware Snapshot for Backup

Arcserve UDP has the capability to utilize hardware storage snapshots for backup. You can specify whether you want to use the hardware snapshot while creating a backup task. If you select hardware snapshot, then Arcserve UDP first tries to create a hardware snapshot. If hardware snapshot fails, Arcserve UDP automatically reverts to the software snapshot without failing the backup job.

You can use the hardware snapshot for an agent-based backup (Windows physical machines) and host-based agentless backup (VMware and Hyper-V).
