PowerProtect Data Manager 19.14 File System User Guide

Protection policy limitations

Observe the following information when planning data protection:

Exclusion filters

  • When an exclusion filter is applied to a protection policy, the File System agent performs file-based backups of the protected assets. File-based backups traverse through the entire directory structure of the file system to back up all the files in each directory of the file system. While file-based backups can provide additional capabilities such as exclusion, these backups take longer to complete when compared to block-based backups.
  • Exclusion filters cannot be applied to self-service protection policies or to backups taken through the self-service CLI.
