PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 Cyber Recovery User Guide

Managing copies

The Policies page enables you to view, secure, analyze, and delete point-in-time (PIT) copies.

1. Select Policies from the Main Menu.
2. Click COPIES at the top of the Policies content pane to display existing copies.
   Each row shows the copy and policy names, the copy creation date, the retention lock expiration date, an analysis assessment, and the recovery status.

   NOTE The row does not show child copies that are associated with a PowerProtect Data Manager copy. The Details window provides information about child copies, as described in the following step.
3. To view details about a copy, click in the copy's row.

   The Details window displays the information and provides links to the policy.

4. To retention lock a copy or extend the retention period of a locked copy, see Securing a copy.
5. To analyze a copy, see Analyzing a copy.
6. To retrieve a detailed report about a completed Analyze job, select the analyzed copy, click Analysis Report Actions, and then select either from the drop-down list:
   • Download Analysis Report to download the analysis report, which is a CSV file. The copy-name.csv file is downloaded to the location configured for download in the browser.
   • Email Analysis Report to receive an email message with the analysis report, which is a CSV file, attached. In the Email Analysis Report window, enter an email address for the specified recipient; you must enter at least one email address. After you enter the first email address, you can enter additional email addresses.
   A report is only available for a successful Analyze job. If an Analyze job fails, the Cyber Recovery software generates an error. If you select a copy on which there has been no analysis or on multiple copies, the Analysis Report Actions button is disabled.
7. To delete an unlocked copy, select the copy and then click Delete.
   NOTE

   • If the Expiration Date column for a copy displays a date, the copy is retention locked and cannot be deleted.
   • When you delete a PowerProtect Data Manager copy that has associated child copies, those child copies are also deleted.

   You can also view, lock, analyze, and delete copies by policy. Click the policy name in the Name column to display the Details for Policy page. Then click Copies.
