GFS question

Post by liorme »

hi
say i have some vms
and i aside from daily backups inside the network, i want to have extra retention outside the organization in external hard drives

so i assume i can use a backup copy job

now, the question is about the copy job gfs. let's say that i have 1tb of backup data. and in the gfs i use monthly restore points. the gfs state that it keeps restore point as full for archival. so, does that mean that at the next restore point (after 1 month) i will have 2 tb there? and on the 2nd hop i'll have 3tb there?

Hi Lior

It depends on your storage.
If you use reFS or xfs, your fullbackups doesn't need the entire space.

You can calculate the neccessary storage with the restore point calculator.
