SQL Plugin Full backup - block cloning

[NightBird]

Hello,

Little question
Does a full SQL backup with the plugin use block cloning ?

I think not so what is the best practice of full sql backup every day, every week ? (if every day... disk usage...)


Thanks

Hello,

No, the plug-in leverages native SQL Server backups using the VDI interface, and block cloning technology is unavailable. Generally speaking, there is no "strictly defined" best practice because the schedule depends on your specific needs, infrastructure design, and acceptable load level. In most cases, it is recommended to perform daily or nightly full backups.

Thanks!
