1   Introduction

This document describes how to set the maximum number of scheduled backups that can be stored in the managed element.

The maximum value is set in attribute maxStoredScheduledBackups. When this value is already reached, the oldest stored scheduled system backup is deleted before a new scheduled backup can be created.

Setting the maximum number of scheduled backups to a value below the existing number of stored scheduled backups results in immediate deletion of one or more stored scheduled backups to match the maximum number.

The default value of attribute maxStoredScheduledBackups is 5. Avoid the minimum value 1 since it can lead to loss of all scheduled backups stored in the managed element.

1.1   Prerequisites

This section describes the prerequisites, which must be fulfilled before using the procedure.

1.1.1   Conditions

The following conditions must apply:

2   Procedure

To set the maximum number of scheduled backups:

  1. Navigate to the BrmBackupScheduler managed object, for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=<Node Name>,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=USER_DATA,BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA

  2. Enter Config mode:

    (BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA)>configure

  3. Change the value of maxStoredScheduledBackups, for example:

    (config-BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA)>maxStoredScheduledBackups=4

    Attention!

    Risk of data loss or data corruption.

    Depending on the chosen value and the number of stored scheduled backups, commit of this change can lead to immediate deletion of stored scheduled backups.

    If maxStoredScheduledBackups is set to 1, the oldest scheduled backup is deleted before a new scheduled backup of the same backup type is created. In this case, if the new scheduled backup fails, there is no scheduled backup in the system.

    Note:  
    The value of the maxStoredScheduledBackups attribute cannot be cleared by the no maxStoredScheduledBackups ECLI command


  4. Commit the change:

    (config-BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA)>commit

  5. Verify the change:

    (BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA)>show

    The following is an example output:

    BrmBackupScheduler=USER_DATA
[...]
   maxStoredScheduledBackups=4
[...]
