Hi,
We are doing streaming VSA App Aware SQL backups in VMware.
In the Storage Policy - Snap Copy we can see the snap-jobs and they seems to contain VSS snapshots.
After the Backup Copy the VSA and SQL jobs are listed in the Storage Policy - Primary Copy.
I have set the Snap Copy with no retention (Spool) and the Backup Copy is retained for 30 Days
The question is if the Snap Copy job is required or used for restores? Is there a recommendation for the Snap Copy retention when doing streaming App Aware jobs?
Regards,
Patrik
