SnapCenter SQL, keep snapshot longer

[RayHoltz]

We have Snapcenter setup to backup a MSSQL instance.  There is one backup that we want to keep longer than the normal retention period.  Is there any way to mark the backup as a 'keep longer'.  The reason is, there were major changes to a test database and we've been asked to restore that test database a couple times already.  We don't want the snapshot to be deleted at the end of the retention period until it's owners say all is good and then we can delete.

Thanks,

Ray

Hi RayHoltz , For long-term retention of backup copies, you should use SnapVault backup.
