Can VCB 1.5 backup VM guest with active snapshot, and is it Dual Path supported yet?

Not sure if this is an issue or not, but can you backup a VMguest using VCB 1.5, but that VMguest already has an active snapshot prior to the backup. Would this work and support by VMware? Also, is VCB 1.5 dual path supported yet for its fiber connection, or is it still best using with single path for its proxy server

Multipathing is supported, see here:

Snapshots are fine as well. You can set options to remove old vcb snapshots, if they exist prior to vcb kicking off, and to remove the vcb helper snapshot when done. Other snapshots that you may have taken are left alone when VCB does its snapshot/backup/remove snapshot routine.
