@Mr.Ed Thank you for your post. The encryption for tape is in the roadmap and is waiting for its turn. We don't have ETA for it yet and look forward to hearing any feedback from you soon.

Hello, @3STYLER NAKIVO team provides new versions to NAS teams as soon as they are released. Then, NAS manufacturer teams perform checks, verifications or whatever they need to do (we do not know exactly what) before publishing new versions in their app stores. NAKIVO team has no influence on these processes and cannot speed up publishing new versions by NAS manufacturers. Please redirect this sort of questions to support of corresponding NAS.

@Mario The best way would be to generate and send a support bundle (https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/display/NH/Support+Bundles) to support@nakivo.com so our Technical Support team can investigate it and forward your feature request to our Product Development team. You can also open your inbox to answer additional questions and I will send the information dierectly for possible future implementation.

We’ve launched the beta testing of NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10.8. The new beta version brings new features for centralized tenant management, full vSphere 8 GA support, S3-compatible backup destinations, streamlined VM recovery from tape and more. The latest additions include: MSP Console VMware vSphere 8 GA Support S3-Compatible Object Storage Support Direct Recovery from Tape Improved Backup Retention Job Priority Merge Jobs Persistent Agent Join the Beta Program to try the new features and get a $30 Amazon eGift Card for sharing your feedback!

@pfs Thank you for your contribution to the NAKIVO Forum. Please, let us know if you have any other questions. Have a nice day

Hello @Jason Thank you for your answer. To update NAKIVO to v10.7.2 on Synology x86_x64 with DSM7+ via SSH console, please check if your NAS is supported (https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/User-Guide/Content/Deployment/System-Requirements/Supported-NAS-Devices/Supported-Synology-NAS-Devices.htm) after that we would recommend you perform the following steps: 1. Please, be sure that NBR version 10.6.1 is installed via Synology AppCenter. 2. Download the newest NBR version installation script for Synology NAS, for example, for the x86_x64 platform (https://d96i82q710b04.cloudfront.net/res/product/DSM7/NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_v10.7.2.69768_Updater_Synology_x86_64.sh) 3. Copy the downloaded file to your Synology somewhere, for example, to /tmp via WinCSP or SSH: cd /tmp && wget https://d96i82q710b04.cloudfront.net/res/product/DSM7/NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_v10.7.2.69768_Updater_Synology_x86_64.sh 4. Stop NAKIVO services: Package center -- Installed -- NAKIVO -- Action -- Stop 5. Connect to Synology via SSH (Putty) using an admin account. 6. Get root privileges running the following command: sudo -i enter your admin password when prompted. 7. Run the following commands to replace the existing NBR director with the newest version: chmod +x NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_v10.7.2.69768_Updater_Synology_x86_64.sh ./NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_v10.7.2.69768_Updater_Synology_x86_64.sh 8.

Hello @Rolando_Ramirez Thank you for your patience during our investigation. >>> There's a message in the download page: The installer for Synology DSM 6 is available on our website. The DSM 7 package is undergoing the Synology verification process and will be available in a few weeks. You can download the package for DSM 7 only from the Synology Package Center. Any timeline ?

So, the dates can be changed. We sincerely apologize for this temporary inconvenience; our Team is working hard to ensure your most satisfactory experience with our software.

@Matt Thank you. Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me here too.

@Matt Thank you for your reply. >>> I cranked it up awhile ago, and now I'm getting speeds around 150 MBps (1200 Mbps) while Nakivo limps along at 20 Mbps >>> I'll likely need to set up a test job for steps 1-3. The backup that I'm trying to copy up to Wasabi now is 12TB, and I estimate it will take 8 more days to finish. Please try again with a small selected VM then check the result. For a specific case, to continue the investigation, please follow the suggested steps in the previous email. =============== 1. In the Wasabi targeting job, enable the "Bottleneck detection" option. 2. Run this job manually or wait for its scheduled run. 3. When it finishes, generate a new support bundle and send it to us with the detailed problem description. =============== We are looking forward to hearing from you. Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

@Matt We appreciate your patience during our investigation. Please clarify details on how you check the speed to Wasabi manually. Which software/commands do you use? Additionally, please do the following: 1. In the Wasabi targeting job, enable the "Bottleneck detection" option. 2. Run this job manually or wait for its scheduled run. 3.
