Retention Policy Question
I just realized this. We were using up too much space in the cloud so we transitioned over to a remote deploy configuration where a full backup is run at the start of the month, and a block-level is done every day. It also allows for consistency with all the cloud plans (deploying local plans this way are trash). I put delete versions older then 30 days and 2 versions for each file.
Today I went and saw that once the Full Backup ran at the beginning of the month, there was nothing before that. So that means every time a full backup is run, there is no retention because lets say they deleted a file on 9/29, well I don't have it because the full backup ran on 10/01 deleted it.
So what settings should I use? I'm sure we would want 30 day retention of files. So if a full backup runs on 10/01 then I'm sure we would want the ability to restore a file from say 09/10 or something.
