[Networker] NetWorker Retention Policy Qs?
2008-11-26 17:19:19
Preston,
Thanks for the clarification. To make sure I understand, let me apply to a
hypothetical situation:
I have a 2 week retention period. Full backups are conducted on Sunday, with
incremental throughout the week. If I ran a full backup on week 1, the
expiration would be two weeks from that date. However, because of the
dependency chain the actual expiration will be 3 weeks (the date of the last
incremental in the chain).
A formula to model this situation is:
Expiration = save set retention of last dependent backup
