Retention Policy for File Copy ?

Post by Ultra_VM »

Question.

Maybe this makes no sense but can you have a retention policy for File Copy Jobs.
For me it seems that it copies once.
Can it file copy and store previous versions.

Hi David,

This is not possible with the File Copy Job. Think of FCJ as a scheduled RoboCopy. It is possible with the Veeam Cloud Edition add-on though.

Though, you can control number of versions stored via PS - just write a simple script that deletes files older than "X" days. Thanks.
