enables you to perform additional, non-backup or restore related tasks, such as data
mining.

For HP StorageWorks EVA, the Data Protector A.06.00 extension offers the option
Wait for the replica to complete to wait for a specified period of time until the
snapclone creation completes, before continuing with backup.
Support for new and improved support for existing writers
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007
The Data Protector A.06.00 extension introduces support for the Microsoft Exchange
Server 2007 writer, together with two Exchange Server models of replication for
data protection: local continuous replication (LCR) and cluster continuous replication
(CCR). With VSS integration, you can back up LCR or CCR replicas of databases
and storage groups.
With Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 writer, you can restore (or perform instant
recovery) a whole storage group or a single store not only to the original location
but also to a different location:
• Different storage group
• Different server
• Non-Exchange location, with optional creation of the recovery storage group
after restore
Improved support for Microsoft Exchange Server consistency check
The Data Protector A.06.00 extension offers an improved support for consistency
check of the Microsoft Exchange Server 2003/2007 writer. The consistency check
can now be enabled from the Data Protector GUI or CLI and throttled to optimize
restore performance.
