SOBR/COS questions

Post by FrenchBlue »

Hello,

I have 2 questions about S3 capacity tier in SOBR's:

- we use the capacity tier both for offloading short term daily backups (typically from 15 to 30 days), and for long term retention (monthly, yearly..). I need to know which part of the total volume (230 TB!) is used for real long term retentions, in summary: what is the real volume of backups there older than 1 month?

- I'm pretty sure that due to various reasons, starting with VMs cancellations or broken backup chains, for example by redirected restores which become production, there are lots of orphaned files there. Seems there's no easy way to find out which ones and automate their deletion, but is there really no way at all, or some hope?

We have to migrate this elsewhere next year and define exactly what (how many TB's) we need to migrate.

Thanks.
