Thanks Smoggy,
This confirmation was what I was looking for.
I'm not an API guy but (and maybe that is why) I'm wondering if anyone could use data protection APIs and Changed Block Tracking to provide statistics about block change rates...
To my understanding the idea is pretty similar for CBT and vSCSI / VR filter - track the changed blocks since some sort of an event. If the backup is done and CBT table is being reset once a day, maybe we can use it in read-only mode between backup windows?
Anyway, those are just assumptions. Would need to get someone who's familiar with vSphere APIs for Data Protection to confirm.
WBR
