How to Create an Archive -
说明
Retention policies enforce the periods for which backups are stored on short-term (fast and expensive) media. Sometimes certain business and technical requirements mandate extended retention of these backups, but use of fast storage is cost prohibitive. Therefore, this requirement creates a need for long-term (slow and cheap) storage. Businesses often use long-term storage for archiving both compliance and non-compliance data. The archive feature in Rapid Recovery is used to support the extended retention for compliance and noncompliance data; and it is also used to seed replication data to a remote replica core. -

Maximum Size Large archives of data can be divided into multiple segments. Select the maximum amount of space you want to reserve for creating the archive by doing one of the following:
• Select Entire Target to reserve all available space in the path provided on the destination provided in Step 4. (for example, if the
location is D:\work\archive, all of the available space on the D: drive is reserved).• Select the blank text box, use the up and down arrows to enter an amount, and then select a unit of measurement from the dropdown list to customize the maximum space you want to reserve.
Recycle action Select one of the following recycle action options:
• Do not reuse. Does not overwrite or clear any existing archived data from the location. If the location is not empty, Rapid Recovery lets you select a different location.
• Replace this Core. Overwrites any pre-existing archived data pertaining to this core but leaves the data for other cores intact.
• Erase completely. Clears all archived data from the directory before writing the new archive.
• Incremental. Lets you add recovery points to an existing archive. It compares recovery points to avoid duplicating data that already
exists in the archive.Comment Enter any additional information that is necessary to capture for the archive. The comment will be displayed if you import the archive later. Build recovery points chains (fix orphans) Select this option to archive the entire recovery point chain. This option is selected by default. - Click Finish.
