VMware Converter Supports Acronis´ .TIB Format
BURLINGTON, Mass., January 15,
2008 - Acronis, Inc. (www.acronis.com/en-us/), today announced that
organizations running virtualization software from VMware can now
convert physical systems into virtual machines for backup and
recovery using VMware Converter and the Acronis® True
Image Echo family of disk imaging and backup software.
Support in VMware environments for Acronis True
Image files means the system migration effort is simplified because
existing Acronis image files can be easily converted directly into
a virtual machine. Acronis True Image 9.x image (.TIB) files are
supported by VMware Converter, which converts Microsoft
Windows-based physical machines and third-party image formats to
VMware virtual machines. It also converts virtual machines between
VMware platforms.
"Our relationship with VMware continues to
benefit our mutual customers," said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis.
"When it comes to backup and restoration of their systems, IT
managers do not want to think about what is physical and what is
virtual. They just want to protect and migrate their data
seamlessly between the two, which is enabled by Acronis True Image
and VMware Converter."
