Immutable storage limitations : Hardened repository vs object storage

[dejan.ilic@liu.se]

I see that hardened repository has a number of limitations documented, especially type of backups that are immutable like transaction backups (MSSQL Logs, RMAN?).
Object storage immutable backup documentation does not mention the same limitations but a considerable smaller list.

Is the documentation correct in that there is a difference in which type of backups that are immutable or is it a documentation issue?

Hello,
yes, it's correct that there are differences. It's two different technologies.

Best regards,
Hannes

PS: We are working on supporting more workloads for hardened repository.

Thank you. That answers my thoughts.

ah, I forgot... there is another section to look at... for example MS SQL logs are not copied to capacity tier / object storage. So that's why they are not listed in the limitations for object storage for example
