VMware Data Recovery 1.2 – reclaim job and shrinking datastore

vmware_logo.jpg   When reclaim operations free space in files those files are not compacted to reflect the new free space. As a result the amount of free space on the deduplication store does not increase even when reclaim operations are reclaiming space – the space which is free is reserved and used for future backups

The retention policy keeps backups that are some combination defined

     Weekly – the first backup after 10:00 PM on Friday

     Monthly – the first backup after 10:00 PM on the last day of the month

     Quarterly – the first backup after 10:00 PM on the last day of the month for March, June, September, and December

     Yearly – the first backup after 10:00 PM on December 31
