How to - one off full backup of files with 2 year retention

Post by MColeman »

Hi,
I have a requirement to make a backup of certain files on a server one time and then keep that backup for two years. Is there an easy way to do this? It seems Veeam does a great job of repetitive incremental backups, creating synthetic fulls, etc, etc but this one requirement kind of has me stumped as to how to accomplish it.

Thanks!
Mark

You could take a VeeamZIP of the VM/Server in question and then store that backup for the retention required since it is a one-off backup at the time it is done.
