ESXi 6.7 config backup support
Good day,
I would like to find out roughly when support for ESXi 6.7 config backup will be available. I have read the KB article that mentions in the next version but I would like to find out if that is the next build of 12.5 or the next version of Acronis?
Thank you for your help
Nick

Hello,
Do you know if there are updated dates/roadmap to support the ESXi configuration backup for version 6.7?
Vasily Semyonov wrote:Hi,
Support for ESXi 6.7 configuration backup is currently planned for next versions of Acronis Backup, since it will involve severe research activities on our side and discovering new alternative approaches to feature implementation.
To give some more details of what happened (why it works for 6.5 and doesn't for 6.7): VMware decided to restrict possibilities to execute custom scripts upon ESXi host boot up in 6.7 due to security-related concerns while we used these possibilities to perform proper patching of the ESXi configuration during the first boot after recovery. With 6.7 the execution of such scripts leads to PSOD ("pink screen of death") of the ESXi host -> thus it becomes unbootable.
Thank you.

Hello Richard,
we're expecting this feature to be implemented in the next update for Acronis Cyber Protect 15 (scheduled for q1 2021, but is subject to change).

Hi!
As far as I know adding ESXi 6.7 configuration backup support in Acronis Cyber Backup 12.5 is currently not planned.
