v2.7.1

Features

Added support for backup & recovery of oracle databases through vRA/vRO 8.x.

Following Oracle Related workflows are now supported

• Registration of oracle as a source.
• Protection of oracle databases.
• On Demand backup of oracle databases.
• Recovery of oracle databases to original or alternate sources.

Additional Notes:

• These workflows are only designed for vRA/vRO 8. Users are required to import the package file separately in vRO 8.x to see the newly added workflows.
• The newly added workflows are defined under Library > Cohesity > vRO 8

v2.6.7

Features

• Introducing a new field, backup_sources, in the VM backup summary report, which indicates the location of a snapshot (Archival / Local).
• Added a new configuration option in Settings, autoRefreshSource (default value: true). When disabled, VMware sources will not be automatically refreshed if the VM object is not discovered in Cohesity.

Additional Notes:

• A separate package file for vRO 8 is now available with this release. The package includes VMware workflows specifically designed for vRO 8. Please note that these workflows are not included in the default vmoapp file and must be imported separately.

v2.6.6

Bug Fixes

• Resolved an issue within the on-demand SQL backup workflow. Policy settings are now overridden to exclude archival of MSSQL log backups.

v2.6.5

Features

• Added support to restore virtual disks from Archival Targets.
  Added new action 'com.cohesity.plugin.dev.protection.isSnapshotTypeArchival' to check if a snapshot version has any associated remote archival target.
Modified the workflow 'Cohesity - Restore Virtual Disk' & added new parameter 'restoreFrom' to use archival target on recovery.

Notes

Build archival target payload using the following snippet,
if(restoreFrom === "Archival") { recoveryObject.archivalTarget = CSProtectionSourceManager.getArchivalData(snapshots); }
