Release Notes for Recovery Series, Recovery Max, ION/ION+, and Unitrends Backup 10.6.1

This document describes new features and fixes introduced in the 10.6.1 release. For upgrade instructions and considerations, reference the Upgrade Guide for Recovery Series and Unitrends Backup.

NOTES:

 

 

NEW - ION and ION+ appliances

New ION/ION+ desktop appliances are now available as a completely silent micro desktop (ION models) or a powerful and ultra-quiet desktop tower (ION+ models). Perfect for offices with no server room or MSPs scaling backup to small customer sites. For details, see ION/ION+ Models.

 

 

Windows agent

This release includes updated Windows core and bare metal agents. The 10.6.1 core agent is recommended for all Windows assets.

IMPORTANT! The 10.6.1 Windows agent includes an updated Windows Volume changed block tracking (CBT) driver (used for incremental image-level backups). Note the following:
  • Upon installing the agent on a Windows asset for the first time, a reboot of the Windows machine is required.
  • For agent upgrades, a reboot is required to update the CBT driver, but incrementals continue to run as scheduled until you can reboot the Windows machine.
  • Unitrends has implemented a new agent CBT driver process. With this new process, a reboot of the Windows machine will only be required for major CBT version changes. Major driver changes are very infrequent, incremental backups will not be impacted.
