How do differential jobs work with job retention? As an example If I do a Full backup every 2 months, a differential every sun and incremental every 6 hours, you only require the last differential to restore. Are the previous differentials "purged" and the relevant volumes in the differential pool marked for recycling as they are no longer needed? Some extracted time periods below:
Job { Name = "BackupHome" JobDefs = "DefaultJob" FileSet = "Home Directory" pool = Default Full Backup Pool = HomeFull-Pool Incremental Backup Pool = HomeInc-Pool Differential Backup Pool = HomeDiff-Pool } Client { Job Retention = 6 months File Retention = 30 days AutoPrune = yes } Pool { Name = HomeDiff-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 40 days Maximum Volume Bytes = 20G Maximum Volumes = 20 Label Format = HomeDiff- } -- Ross Williamson Research Scientist - Sub-mm Group California Institute of Technology 626-395-2647 (office) 312-504-3051 (Cell) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?
