7.5.7 Additional Settings
1) Deduplication
This option defines whether to enable or disable the deduplication for the archive created by the
backup task. The default setting for Deduplication is: Enabled.
Deduplication is performed on the archive level. This means that only the data which is saved to this
archive will be deduplicated. In other words, if there are 2 archives saved into the same location with
deduplication enabled, the duplicated data which may be present in both of these archives will not
be deduplicated.
2) CBT backup
This option defines whether to utilize the Changed Block Tracking feature of VMware for the virtual
machines supporting it. The default setting for CBT backup is: Enabled.
CBT backup keeps track of all the changed blocks inside the virtual machine. This significantly reduces
the time for creating backups. The time is reduced because Acronis vmProtect 9 does not need to
check which blocks have changed since the last backup. It gets this information from the VMware
API.
3) Use FTP in active mode
It is possible to use FTP active mode for FTP authentication and data transfer. The default setting for
Use FTP in active mode is: Disabled.
Enable this option if your FTP server supports active mode and you want this mode to be used for file
transfers.
After you finished with all the settings, click OK to close the pop-up and apply them for the current
backup task only.
