We are thrilled to announce that with Cove 24.4 we have introduced a completely new AI/ML-based boot detection mechanism for Recovery Testing and Standby Image. This update increases boot detection accuracy to 99%—nearly eliminating false positives and negatives in boot test results.

We’ve also enhanced the reporting experience in Continuity by adding the ability to send successful and failed recovery reports to different recipients and provided the option to remove Cove branding from the recovery reports.

In addition to adding these exciting new testing and reporting capabilities, we also:

• Improved the efficiency of restoring to VHDX. Previously, it was necessary to allocate disk space double the size of the original disk, posing a challenge when restoring large disks. Now, you only need space equal to the original disk size.

• Added the ability to restore deduplicated volumes, responding to several requests from our partners to fully address the use-case. Previously, this resulted in the general error “There is not enough space on the disk,” requiring a workaround. Now, it functions seamlessly out of the box.

• Added support for SANSymphony NAS as a recovery target in “Standby Image (Hyper-V/VHDX)” plan.

• Addressed the scenario where system files were not located on the C: drive which led to failed recovery when “Restore OS Disk Only” option was set.

• Addressed customer requests to enhance the recovery mechanism for compressed folders. Compressed folders are now recovered without errors.
  
• Introduced immutable Fortified Copies, which you can read about in more detail here.
  

NOTE: Stay tuned for an additional update later this week.
