**Purpose**:
|
||||
This is meant as a high-level generally-speaking best practice retention policy in most use-cases. This document will generally be pretty bare-bones, but the general idea is the following advanced GFS retention period is generally configured on backup copy jobs, specifically ones that have off-site backups, but can also be used for local backup repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
Navigate to Jobs > Backup (or Backup Copy) > (Find a Backup Job) > Right-Click > Edit > Storage (or Target) > "**Keep Certain Full Backups for Archival Purposes**: Checked" > Click on the "**Configure**" button.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional: Click the "**Save as Default**" button before clicking the "**OK**" button to make this default behavior for new backup jobs.
