I need to have a monthly backup for a retention of two years with the backupdata on two different repositories, but I'm not able to configure that properly. I tried it the following way:
1. backupjob to Repo1:
Retention policy: 2 restore points
Keep certain full backups longer for archival purposes:
- Keep monthly full backups for 24 months; use weekly full backup for the following week of month: Last
- Incremental Backup with synthetic full every Friday
- backupcopy job (see below)
- monthly at this time: 19:30 last Friday of every month
2. backup copy job to Repo2:
- Immediate copy
- objects to process: Backupjob from above
- Restore points to keep: 24
- Schedule: any time
I expect to have on Repo1:
- a vbk file of only last Friday of every month
what I really see on Repo1:
- a vbk file of every Friday of every month
I expect to have on Repo2:
- one vbk and a vib on last Friday of the month
what I really see on Repo2:
- one vbk and a vib of every Friday of every month.
I need to reconfigure something, but don't know what exactly? I don't want to have active fulls instead of synthetic fulls , because I use ReFS for the Repos.
Can someone help me with that?
thx a lot,
