Object Storage as Backup Target • Re: Checkpoint removal process info

So effectively the only change in 12.2 as it comes to processing retention of these 3 special backup types is start time? 03:00 instead of 00:00/00:30

It seems that we are mixing up terminologies and combining the concepts of background retention and background checkpoint removal processes.

VeeamZIP and exported restore points are removed (and were previously removed in version 12.1) around midnight by a special process called "veeamzipretention". Previously, within this same process, checkpoints were also removed for these restore points. Now, the removal of the checkpoint will occur after the completion of the retention activity (immediately after).

The session initiated at three o'clock in the morning will remove mostly the checkpoints from the backup chains produced by agents that are in the "managed by agent" mode.

Thanks!
