No, it is impossible as of now to do cross platform restore without having to export. Please send your request to support@nakivo.com so we can forward it to our Product Development team for review and possible further implementation.

Yes, you can do flash reboot on the repository which is not compressed and deduplicate backups.

Please generate and send a support bundle https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/display/NH/Support+Bundles to support@nakivo.com so our 2nd Level Support team can further investigate the issue you've experienced and suggest a proper solution.

NAKIVO Backup & Replication does not support exchange 2010 since 9.4 so you cannot backup exchange 2010 and restore items with that version.

@Zvaigzdzius You are always welcome

As of now it is not possible to replace trial license with free one. In this case please remove the existing NAKIVO installation and run a new installation with free license. We recommend to use the latest installer from our web site https://www.nakivo.com/resources/download/free-edition/

As we understand the NAKIVO transporter is installed on WIn10 machine and CIFS based repository from Synology NAS is attached to it, correct? Please let us know which Windows version is used, is it Pro version? For now NAKIVO supports only Windows 10 Pro version for installation. Please send us "winver" and "systeminfo" command line outputs (to support@nakivo.com). Also generate and send us support bundle (https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/display/NH/Support+Bundles) , we will check.

Hello Leezy, It could be useful to get results in your environment with NAKIVO deduplication enabled to compare them.

Hello @Leezy, Please clarify if you have enabled deduplication only in the NAKIVO repository for a test run. Are these screenshots from different runs or it is the same deduplication configuration? Could you please clarify the test that you have run in detail. We did not run any deep tests with this configuration and comparing different types of deduplication.

Sure, please send your request via email to support@nakivo.com so we can forward it to our Product Development team for possible further implementation.

NAKIVO Backup & Replication does not support syslog as of now.

Hello Leezy, We recommend using NAKIVO only deduplication method as Windows and NAKIVO working simultaneously could cause an error. Please learn more here: https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/display/KB/File+and+Object+Recovery:+Windows+Server+with+Deduplication Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hello! Please note that space reclaim maintenance is accumulative. It means you can stop it at any time and then continue from where you stopped it. Moreover, if the space reclaim is running but you need to run the job already, then space reclaim maintenance will be stopped automatically. These are the default settings. We start working with bigger data blocks and end with the smallest ones. That's why Space Reclaim maintenance is the most effective during the first 30-40% of the whole run. It's done in order to avoid the disk storage bottleneck.

Hello John! We are planning to add official support of ESXi 7.0 in our upcoming release that should be rolled out in July. However, beta testing will be available faster.

Hello! Please try creating a snapshot for this machine manually and make sure the credits used by NAKIVO to access this Hyper-V host have all the required rights. Use local administrator if possible.

You should deploy a transporter on site B.

No, the transporter uploads the data directly to AWS S3. The product doesn't use the cache.

This is so because forever incremental repository is spread between 4096 files and AWS S3 doesn't allow writing data to all these files simultaneously or works extremely slow with this repository type.

Physical to Physical - P2P won't be released this year. Physical to Virtual - P2V (Destination - VMware) will be released with NBR v.10

The options that are used to mount the repository share could be seen in the "mount" output, when the share is mounted. Please try to run "mount" command after refreshing the repository in NAKIVO web ui. In case you need to use any additional (advanced) mount options, it is possible to add them through NAKIVO web ui -> repository settings (edit repository menu).

Currently NAKIVO supports AWS S3 only, so it is impossible as of now. Support of the S3 -based storages like Wasabi is planed in the future releases, however, there is no ETA for it yet.

@Leezy You're always welcome
