Practical limit in number of replica restore point

Post by manfri »

Hi to everybody.

I would like to know if there is a prectical limit in number of replica restore point.
The space consumed by the differential disk is an obvious problem, and from what i've seen is more an incremental forever than a reverse incremental (the terminology is obviously translated :D )
the io from incremental merge is a general problem, no matter how many restore poit i have (and i wonder how refs can help in the matter)
As result of the previous consideration i think that a vm running from a long chain would be much slower...

Hi Marco, there's in fact the limit right in the UI, you cannot have more than 28 restore points for replication job.

Isn't 28 for vSphere? I remember once I asked this question to Support guys and I was told for hyper-v it was around 50. Am I wrong?
