Hi. CV version is 11.32.45, we want enable compliance lock (CL) on local disk storage. For what I can read, there no DDB sealing involve with that option vs WORM at hardware level.

With no DDB sealing, we should not have have space increase by enabling CL?

Am I right?

Hi @typer100 

Compliance lock will prevent deletion of jobs prematurely, deletion of clients and even lowering of retention.

Retention on storage pool is applicable only when storage WORM property is set.

By default, the Create new DDB every [] days option is selected for deduplication enabled storage pools which denotes the DDB seal frequency. The DDB seal frequency is set to the same number as of retention days in the associated storage pool, with a minimum of 7 days and maximum of 365 days.
