On 2015/08/06 HP released patch bundle 9.04 for Linux, HP-UX and Windows, it includes 494 changes for Windows and 439 changes for Linux.
With the new bundle some new and important features were introduced (complete list – see patch description):

Can\’t find any informative documentation for automated replication synchronisation.
Also is there any documentation for the 3PAR Power on and live migration feature?
And one least: is GRE for vmware 6.0 supported?
Many thanks
Hi Paolo,
have you already checked the latest support matrices and of course the integration guides? Should all included…
Best regards

Hi Daniel,
DP 9.01 now includes native integration with HP Helion OpenStack.
Do you know if there are any plans for DP to include native integration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 or Microsoft Azure?
Hi Chris,
it was discussed, but currently I have no information I can share (I’m allowed to share) nor a roadmap.
Best regards
Daniel
Hi Daniel,
I had to call the Tech Support to get the Platform and Integration Matrix including the 9.04 new features.
It would be great if you could include it an the Device support matrix on this site.
Best regards,
Alain Specty
ACHTUNG:
Patch 9.04 enthält einen BUG in NDMP-BMA unter Windows.
Sicherungen per NDMP erfolgen, jedoch erscheinen nur einige Einträge in der IDB. Verzeichnisse werden nicht mehr in dem Restore-Baum angezeigt, Dateien können nicht ausgewählt werden.
Ein Restore funktioniert, allerdings können einzelne Dateien nicht ausgewählt werden.
Ein Hotfix – Request wurde bereits an HP Support gestellt.
