Backup Copy (Periodic copy) from backup

[sandroalves]

Hello friends.

I verified that when I select to perform a backup copy periodic I can choose some options (From infra ..., from backup and from jobs).

Usually I use (From Jobs) which is the same when we choose (Immediate copy).

However, a colleague commented that he used the option (from backup) instead of (from jobs) and realized that the space occupation was less than (from jobs).

Is there really any relevance?

Thanks.

Hello,
that can happen if he does not copy every backup in periodic mode.

Example: he does backup every 4h, but the periodic backup copy job only runs every 24h.

Immediate copy mode copies every backup. Periodic copy can skip data that was overwritten.

Is there really any relevance?

for most cases not. It could also be other configuration options (compression settings, per-VM chain vs. per-job chain etc...). With the same settings, the result is the same.

Best regards,
Hannes

Could be exclusions also.

Hi,

you are very good at responding !!!

This community is very good, and I can tell you why it used other communities for other products.

It is better than even supporting many other products.

Thanks.
