Catalogic Software has released DPX 4.16, the newest version of its enterprise backup and recovery platform. The update introduces agentless support for Proxmox and enhances DPX cyber resilience features, enabling organizations to safeguard diverse virtualization environments while addressing compliance and recovery needs through a single solution designed for heterogeneous virtual machine support.
Proxmox VM protection arrives as a workload in DPX, delivering agentless full and incremental backups, scheduling, and node management directly from the web UI. Organizations can now protect Proxmox environments with enterprise-grade workflows already available for VMware, Hyper-V, physical servers, and cloud workloads – eliminating the need for separate tools and providing a single platform for managing data protection across hybrid infrastructures.
Cyber resilience and compliance are strengthened through extended vStor end-to-end audit logging that captures REST and system-level actions, with configurable retention, filtering, and CSV export to support compliance, forensic investigation, and accountability. DPX 4.16 also introduces backup and restore of VMware VMs protected with vTPM encryption, extending enterprise-grade protection to security-hardened workloads.
Disaster recovery is now more flexible and easier to manage. During multi-VM restores, DPX automates the process of recovery even when the original volume information is unavailable. Block Archive and VMware Archive restores are fully integrated into the modern web UI, combining multiple restore stages into a single workflow with simplified monitoring and management.
Operational efficiency and platform reliability continue to improve across DPX. Tape library management is now available in the web UI, automating multiple stages of tape handling, including import and export slot management, automated library scans, and real-time library status monitoring. The new unified ISO-image streamlines the maintenance process by allowing administrators to update appliances, physical nodes, and proxy servers from a single package. Volume migration gains task-list visibility with estimated completion time, throughput, and suspend and resume capabilities. Additional refinements include accurate vStor storage reclamation for deleted VMs, standardized filtering across the interface, faster replication session views, and optimized proxy selection for VMware agentless backups.
“Virtualization environments are more diverse than ever, and organizations need a single solution that protects them without compromise. Adding agentless Proxmox support, stronger audit and compliance capabilities, and disaster recovery improvements reflect the reality of modern hybrid IT, helping our customers strengthen resilience while simplifying operations,” said Ken Barth, CEO at Catalogic Software.
