Hi All,
We are trying to change retention on Full jobs that ran over this weekend due to some requirement, we would like to know if we manually right click the job and change the retention on each Full job to “infinite”, will it also make the change to retention on the incremental jobs dependent on this full jobs?
Based on commvault documentation they mention as below for incremental jobs.
https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/58452_manual_retention_end_time_for_job.html
“Important: The retention time specified here, applies only to the selected job and does not apply to any dependent jobs. Therefore, you might not be able to restore the data available in the dependent backup jobs. For example, if you select an incremental backup for manual retention, then any associated full backups will not be retained for the extended period.
So we want to know if we select a Full backup for manual retention, will the associated incremental backups be retained for the extended period or will they age off based on Basic day and Basic cycles rule?
Thanks.
