Description

Announcing general availability support for multi disk crash consistency mode in VM restore points. A crash consistent VM restore point is an agentless solution that stores the VM configuration and point-in-time write-order consistent snapshots for all managed disks attached to a Virtual Machine. This is same as the status of data in the VM after a power outage or a crash. Customers and Azure partners who are looking to build business continuity and disaster recovery solutions can leverage crash consistent restore points to protect their Azure VMs.

Regions supported: All azure commercial production regions.
