rotating usb

If we enable rotating usb.
will the restore point on the rotating usb-drives be deleted when they are inserted again?

Hi Frank,

Restore points will be deleted according to the retention policy settings. As to how it works, then please take a look at this link > Backup to Rotated Drives

Thanks!

[frankive]

Thx!

To keep in mind - every rotated drive will have its own backup chain and every backup chain will have its own retention.

[frankive]

yup, the will all have max the retention set in the backup setting I presume, and if the customer change daily with 3 USB-drives a 1 month retention actually willl cover 3 months, correct?

[Vitaliy S.]

Yes, that's correct. Every rotated drive will have the backup chain that is controlled by the configured retention policy.

That option is quite hidden, but good to know it's there.
