NetBackup™ NAS Administrator's Guide

Configuring TIR information retention time

You can specify how long NetBackup retains the true image restore information. This value defines the number of days to maintain true image restore information in catalog files (.f). After the specified number of days, the images are deleted. This setting is applicable to all policies for which NetBackup collects true image restore information. The default duration is one day.

To configure the TIR information retention time:

  1. On the left, click Host properties, under Hosts.
  2. Select the primary server that you want to edit, click Edit primary server.
  3. Click Clean up, in the field Keep true image restoration (TIR) information, enter a value in days.
  4. Click Save.

TIR information cleanup depends on two factors. The first is the TIR information expiration period specified in the UI, and the next full backup. NetBackup does not clean up the TIR information in the catalog files until the next full backup, even if the specified expiration period is over.
