Quick Backup and Job Retention impact?

Post by JeremiahS »

The new selective Quick Backup is great addition, but I'm wondering if this impacts overall retention for every other VM in job?

Example: I have backup job with 50 VMs in it with a 30 restore point retention. I run a Quick Backup for 5 VMs at different points in the day. On the subsequent scheduled backup, does the available restore points for all other VMs get reduced by 5 (25 total) ? After running a few Quick Backups today, each of them shows as just another incremental VIB on the repository.

Thanks for clarifying.

There is no impact. Check out the latest post about this feature on our blog (was just published earlier today), this covers your question as well. Thanks!
