PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 Cyber Recovery User Guide

Deleting unneeded Cyber Recovery objects

Delete alerts, events, expired and unlocked copies, DR backups, and jobs when they are no longer needed.

1. From the Masthead Navigation, click the gear icon to access the System Settings list.
2. Select Maintenance.
   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.
