Setting up a maintenance schedule

Configure a cleaning schedule to delete alerts, events, expired and unlocked copies, DR backups, and jobs when they are no longer needed.

Prerequisites

  • You are logged in as the admin user.
  • To ensure that the DR backup is included in the cleaning schedule, enable and configure a DR backup from the DR Backup option under System Settings. The Cyber Recovery software deletes a DR backup using the same process as an unlocked copy.

About this task

By setting a Cyber Recovery cleaning schedule, you can avoid system slowdown. The Cyber Recovery software provides a default cleaning schedule, which you can modify.

NOTE:If the only remaining backup is expired, the Cyber Recovery software does not delete it, ensuring that there is always at least one DR backup available.

Steps

  1. From the Masthead Navigation, click Icon with an image of a gear. to access the System Settings list.
  2. Select Maintenance.
    The Cleaning Schedule window in the Maintenance dialog box is displayed.
  3. To modify the default cleaning schedule:
    1. Specify the frequency for when the schedule runs, the time that the schedule runs next, and the age of the objects to delete.
      NOTE:The Cyber Recovery UI uses the same time zone as the Cyber Recovery management host for the scheduled time.

      The Delete unlocked copies older than field affects locked and unlocked copies differently. An unlocked copy is deleted after the set numbers of days. A locked copy is deleted after the set number of days after the retention lock expires. For example, a copy is retention locked for 14 days and the Delete unlocked copies older than field is set to 7 days. After 14 days, the file is unlocked and then after 7 days it is deleted. That is, after 21 days, the copy is deleted.

    2. Click Save.
    The cleaning operation runs, using the values that you defined in the cleaning schedule.
  4. To run the cleaning schedule on demand, click Clean Now.
    The cleaning operation runs immediately, using the values that you defined in the cleaning schedule. An informational message indicates that the job has started and provides a View Jobs link that redirects you to the System Jobs content pane.
