VMware Protected Items configured using Changed Block Tracking can now fallback to a full backup
VMware Protected Items that have been configured to use the Latest VM state (Changed Block Tracking) mode will now fallback to performing a full VM backup when Comet detects that more than 50% of the disk has changed. This speeds up the backup peformance when large parts of the VM has been modified.
