We installed Nakivo as VM on a VMware cluster and we want to use a backup repository on the local datastore. The default "Data Size Reduction Settings" for the Onboard Repository are "Store backups in seperate files". Unfortunately this setting can't be changed. As far as I know this means, that each VM is stored in separate files without deduplication. The backup size becomes very large. How can I disable "storing in seperate files" and activate deduplication across VMs? In principle the Onboard Repository is what we need, but we need deduplication. My first idea was to delete the onboard repository and to create a new one with proper settings, but that is not possible.

What version of Ubuntu is used in the latest Nakivo provided virtual appliance?

During creating a new repository I ended with "Cannot create the backup repository. The specified location does not exist." It seems that I missed at least one step. What have I done: - Added a new virtual disk to my Nakivo VM - On the console: "Manage Nakivo services" and press F5 to refresh the list of disks. Now both disks (the default disk and my new disk) are visible. - Connected to Web GUI and "Add Backup Repository" with type "Local Folder", a new Name, Onboard Transporter and a new path to the local folder. - In the options I configured settings for deduplication. It seems that I need to configure where the new disk is mounted in the filesystem (like /etc/fstab) . But how can I do that?

i'm can't add vCenter to inventory with Nakivo. found error : An internal error has occurred. Reason: cannot find field: memoryTieringType (NoSuchFieldException). please suggest how to fix this error.

We now use another application for backing up Microsoft 365 (e-mail). What I love about that application is that it has a pst export, this can be for individual items or a whole mailbox. We found that quite useful and gives a bit more of the feeling you're in control with a recovery. I'm now evaluating the Microsoft 365 backup of Nakivo, but found it can only recover items directly to an office 365 account. Is there any plan of implementing a pst export functionality?

@Official Moderator Thank you for that, but it is not needed anymore. I send a request to support@nakivo.com with all the information to look us up in the system.

In follow up, Nakivo Support were able to assist me via a remote session and we increased the allocation of RAM. Excellent Support!

Any update on the ETA for this feature ? We are also asked to encrypt the tapes.

Since the vSphere virtual appliance won't upgrade the OS on its own what is the process to upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS to 22.04.1 LTS?
