Could you tell something about "VeeamBackup_<server_name>" datastore? What is it for?

This datastore is used for tasks requiring vPower NFS functionality, like Surebackup, Instant VM Recovery, etc. Thanks.

My "VeeamBackup_<server_name>" datastore has less then 20% of free space. Am I to worry? Does it grow automatically?

Its size is defined by free space on the underlying volume where corresponding folder resides on (VeeamFLR). Thanks.

Is this datastore maintained automatically? Where can I read more about the purpose/maintenance of this data store? VMware's Operations Manager is yelling at us about this data store's capacity and I'd like to understand better. Is it a reserved space to mount a backup file when performing Instant VM Recovery?
